Nordic Design – The Essence

Image
  It’s hard to sum up Scandinavian design… without resorting to words like “simple”, “minimalist” and “ergonomic”, but it can be done. Occasionally. As you’d expect, the essence of Nordic design is as simple, minimalist and ergonomic (ahem) as the products themselves.

  If you’re about to move into a smaller home… or you’re fitting out an annexe or basement for a teenager, then you need to box clever with your interior space. The trick is to fit what you need into the space but still have easy access to it as and when. Here’s how you do it. Use your walls All that vertical space tends to go to waste in larger rooms and homes, but if space is at a premium, then it should be brought into play. Think about using racks, hooks and even poles as storage for pans, clothes and even bikes or musical instruments. They’re off the floor and out of the way. Use zones Make sure each area is obvious – the  dining  area, the sleeping area, the relaxation area… Use rugs to create colour-coded zones or use backless shelves as  storage and dividers . Multi-tasking furniture like this is ideal in smaller areas. Use as much vertical storage as possible It’s not all about the poles and the racks; try installing some overhead storage for the things you don’t use every day
