Danish Design lamp, the Holm pendant by Anton Fogh Holm

The Stylish Holm pendant light was originally designed by Anton Fogh Holm in the 1960s. His grandchild, Danish designer Kim Aa Holm, has taken his grandfathers lamp and changed the design slightly, with the suspension now being a bit different, originally glue was needed, but now it all slots together making it easy to self assemble.
This is one of the more affordable lighting and designer lamps on the market with the retail price £52.

It’s now on sale at the Scandinavian Design Centre for £35 (Cord and light bulb not included.) The pendant is made in ivercote duo cardboard and measures 50cm. We think it would be a lovely statement piece in any contemporary home.


Building a walk-in closet in one afternoon – Stolmen. Ikea

Building a walk-in closet in a small bedroom may seem like an impossible dream, but it’s pretty easy to do. With the affordable IKEA wardrobe systems to choose from you can divide your room and double your storage, easily by being your own interior architect. This is a DIY video on how to build a walk-in closet in one afternoon using the PAX storage system. Very clever!

I’m considering the flexible floor-to-ceiling storage STOLMEN system, great for smaller bedrooms, hallways and any room. You start with two poles and then mount the storage units you choose between them. Just add more sections whenever you need to. You can fix it to the wall or the ceiling. Storage options include everything from cabinets and shelves to clothes rails and hooks. Also recommend to pop over to Style Bubble; Say Stoooolmen for great DIY inspiration and lots of photos.


Now, need to start sketching STOLMEN IKEA dream wardrobe system… Wish me luck!

Living the Scandinavian design dream, Summerhouse Hvaler Norway

The house is beautifully situated on the top of a hill overlooking the ocean and the horizon. The design of the house allows a close interaction with the surrounding nature and the beautiful scenery, giving the feeling of being outdoor when inside.

The use of wooden materials that will gradually develop a grey patina allows the contemporary design house to interact and naturally blend in with the colours of the surrounding landscape.

Scandinavian style Bespoke Interior Design in London

Creating a home and unsure on how you’ll approach the task? A friend of mine recently bought a gorgeus 19th century flat in Oslo, with high ceilings and lots of original features. But unsure on how she can acheive a beautiful home she’s now on the look out for a experinced interior designer to assist her.
I think it is a good idea! After all purchasing the wrong designer lamp can be an expensive lesson learnt. If you don’t have the time or the skill it takes, it’s probably best to consult a professional, that will provide you with a design counselling scheme for one room or (if the budget allows) for the entire house. I’ve recently come across the London based Scandinavian interior designer Anna Hansson, with a portofolio of contemporary and sleek city appartments. Her work shown below.

Minimalistic Toj clothing rack from Normann Copenhagen

The Toj is a clothing rack with an industrial and simple expression designed by Simon Legald, and it’s the newest addition to Norman Copenhagen’s furniture collection. The idea behind Toj is to have easy access to your wardrobe and to have your favourite pieces on display, to have a coordinated wardrobe where no garment will be sitting in the dark untouched and unused. If you have a wardrobe you’re proud of -why not show it off!? Simon Legald explains: “I wanted to design a clothes rail that could be displayed openly – a piece that was more furniture than a basic rail for clothes. Toj works well in many different environments since its expression is clean and minimalist, and it is the individual person who gives Toj character.”

The Toj consists of a skeleton, hanging rail and shelf providing space for clothes, shoes and bags. It’s produced in two different sizes both in ash wood with white or grey shelves and will be available from August 2012.
