Real Nordic Living: Design. Food. Art. Travel.

Description

This stylish publication celebrates the impact Scandinavian culture has had internationally on art, design, fashion, food and interiors, and seeks out those creatives and tastemakers who are currently making their mark on the world stage. Following an introduction by the author providing an overview of hygge (and its antithesis, uhygge) and its place in the Nordic mindset, the book is divided into five themed chapters featuring interviews with designers, artisans, restaurateurs and bloggers, who share their insider knowledge on the hippest Scandinavian products, brands, trends and locations. Finally, a third section presents the best sources and locations of where to fully experience the hygge phenomenon.

Dorothea Gundtoft is a fashion stylist and writer - and occasionally picks up a camera. Her commissions have included work for Dazed & Confused, V magazine, Vogue Italia and Style.com.
