Warm yet modern and nicely textured long seat/bench/sofa which I can see being used as dining seating in a breakfast room with a round, rectangular or custom shaped table. Nice look, simple design, by Magnus Olesen. Seen at the CODE11 show in Copenhagen.
Here is a beautiful home west of Denmark where I visited a friend this past September. Beautiful classic Scandinavian interiors.
Some interesting finds at Code11, the Danish design exhibition that I attended in early September.
A wonderful art gallery in Bornholm, Denmark. Perfectly Scandinavian - light, simple, clean, modern and warm at the same time. I love the feel of this space and I love the artwork too.
Traditional Danish “relief” or ceramic mural designs in a simple, modern, charming style-photographed by me in the Bornholm airport. Small to large ceramic reliefs which tell a story visually are a traditional Danish object which I love very much. I own several.
I just got back from 10 days in Denmark, visiting Bornholm, Copenhagen, and surrounding areas. I took approx 5,750 images. I’ll be uploading random images which have inspired me. Hope you enjoy! These are images from an antique shop on Bornholm. See all four images!
The quintessential Scandinavian dining room - in this case, in the world famous restaurant, Noma, in Copenhagen. Mid Century Modern exquisite furniture is effortlessly at home with antique architecture, heavy texture and simple surroundings. From the blog Solid Frog.
An industrial Scandinavian kitchen combines white, stainless steel and natural wood cabinetry with a touch of nature in the antlers set above the window. It’s a warm industrial look to my eye.
Swoon-worthy dining. Brilliant and stunning to throw those white pieces of furry material on these very sexy Hans Wegner Wishbone chairs. From Emmas Designblogg.
The fewest of lines, in a two tone of white and gray/stainless, to me, it begs the question, it looks like perfection, but can perfection be sustained over time and use? When a modern/perfect/white kitchen becomes worn, what then? The question must be asked!
I had the great pleasure of having lunch at the Restaurant Jacobsen in Klampenborg, north of Copenhagen. This is a place where we see a fine patina on classic modern furnishings, designed by Arne Jacobsen, including the flatware…an interesting historical reference and an ode to the beauty of “use and wear.”
Here is another wonderful collection of handmade ceramics by Danish artisans to push your kitchen a bit toward a warm/modern feeling.
