We’re so excited to be launching our new brand, Scandinavian Made! This is a tumblr blog (for those who see it on the Scandinavian Made webshop). It’s a blog that I’ve added content to about Scandinavian design, mostly kitchens, over time. Since there is so much delicious Scandinavian interior design in this blog, I’ve brought it over to the webshop.
Now, we will expand our posts and write more on Scandinavian interiors, ceramics, rugs, and other rooms in the home…including kitchens. After all, I have my rugs and ceramics in my kitchen too!
We are excited to launch this new brand, and it is a collective effort between myself, Susan Serra, and my daughter, Kelly Donovan. Please join our facebook page too!
So incredibly gorgeous, I’m nearly speechless……

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.
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.
Interesting mix of materials in this kitchen - zero storage, but I will assume a few things:
- storage is elsewhere
- the kitchen gets light use
- it’s a kitchen in a second home
Here is a case where the desired aesthetic completely drove the design of the kitchen and trumped function. No judgment on that - I’d love a sort of fantasy kitchen solely designed around an aesthetic vision - that’s true luxury in one sense. From Rum magazine.

Unknown if this is a Scandinavian design but it certainly has the elements - light, natural flooring and a fabulous, strong, rustic design juxtaposed with another sleek surface, the cabinetry beyond.

At first I thought these images from Rum magazine were shot in a sepia tone and then saw other colors. It looks like the cooktops are in front of a fireplace. A very unconventional kitchen design. I’m not seeing much storage availability. I don’t love parts of it and am crazy about other parts. I do love the long thin bricks.
Stainless steel, turquoise planking, barn wood planking, and look at that floor! This is a very warm kitchen. A bit of a clutter issue, but otherwise super charming.
A better look at both sides of the neutral kitchen from 2 previous posts. Isn’t it simple and elegant? I’m crazy about the roll up shade.
To my eye, this is one elegant kitchen! Simple, modern, a very warm, comforting pattern on the wall, a natural skin rug and the warmth of wood legs on the chairs. The copper lighting fixture is perfect. I feel like I’m looking at a painting.
Stone, stainless, white, mushroom…neutrals with a cool/warm combination read fresh, modern, and warm. A touch of tradition via the shaker door style, yet it all works together and is a very pleasing look.
