The Nordic Christmas is probably the ‘original’ Christmas for some of us. Santa Claus is coming from the Big North, after all. The Scandinavian style is famous for its simple and natural look which reflects in the Christmas decorations. Inspiration is taken from natural elements: berries, trees, logs, snowy landscapes. The nature brings complexity which is often simplified by the nordic designers, and elegance and calm are included in the interiors through a contemporary yet traditional vision. Modern materials are reproducing natural themes that are talking about the Scandinavian view on the world.
Let’s have a look together at my personal selection for a Nordic Christmas!
