It is impossible to imagine a cosy Scandinavian interior without the right decoration. Whether you want to set stylish accents or make your home cosier quickly and easily, Scandinavian decoration is available in many different shapes and styles. In this overview, you can find out which Scandinavian decoration brands there are and where you can get the pieces.
What characterises Scandinavian decoration
Scandinavian decoration is characterised by high quality, purism and practicality. While there are also artistic pieces, many Scandinavian decoration brands specialise in practical and decorative pieces, such as tableware, cushions, blankets and curtains. This allows you to set accents, change the atmosphere of a room and individualise its appearance.
Tableware
Many Scandinavian decorative brands regularly publish tableware collections. The styles range from minimalist to romantic designs in the Scandinavian country house style.
Home textiles
Home textiles, such as blankets, cushions, curtains and rugs, can be used wonderfully to make a room feel cosier and more comfortable.
Natural materials such as wool are particularly high quality, durable and go well with Scandinavian furniture.
Linen and cotton are among the most popular fabrics, which are used both in decorative elements and practical everyday items such as blankets and cushions.
Candles, vases and plants
Smaller decorative items, such as vases, candle holders and lamps of all kinds, can be found in the Scandinavian style as well. Lighting is particularly important for creating a cosy ambience in Scandinavia, where winters are long and cold. Plants are used to emphasise the connection to nature.
Decoration brands
Bloomingville
The Danish brand Bloomingville offers a large selection of decorations, crockery and small items of furniture. In addition to artistic pieces, there are also natural textiles and baskets made of rattan, wooden decorations and earthenware.
The Bloomingville Kids Collection, which not only sells children’s furniture and child-friendly wall decorations, but also high-quality toys made of wood and cotton, is also popular.
Broste Copenhagen
Broste Copenhagen is particularly popular because of its twice-yearly tableware collections. The Nordic Sand, Nordic Sea and Nordic Coal collections are particularly popular among lovers of Scandinavian tableware.
The designs are inspired by Scandinavian nature. However, modern designs made of metal are also available. They combine particularly well with plants, such as this iron flower pot stand.
Cam Cam Copenhagen
The Danish brand Cam Cam Copenhagen not only offers baby furniture, children’s accessories and toys, but also child-friendly decorations.
These include beautiful wall decorations, for example in the form of bunting garlands or high-quality cotton mobiles in bright colours. In contrast to the rather simple designs for adults, Nordic decoration for children is more colourful and often based on animal motifs.
Design House Stockholm
The decoration of the Swedish label Design House Stockholm is particularly known for the Knot cushion. The small greenhouses also characterise both the brand and the Scandinavian style.
There are also various wooden candle holders, wardrobe solutions and patterned mugs to be found. In addition to Scandinavian decoration, Design House Stockholm offers small pieces of furniture, such as the “Air” cabinet as well.
Design Letters
The Danish brand Design Letters focuses on decorative typography for your home. The porcelain mugs, bottles and candlesticks have a purist design, are kept in subtle colours and are complemented by the imprints of individual letters or entire sentences.
Environmentally friendly alternatives to bottles and mugs are among the customer favourites. Another speciality are the technology products that Design Letters now also offers.
Fabelab
At Fabelab you will find high-quality, durable and child-friendly equipment for the baby and children’s room. This includes not only cuddly toys, but also bedding, muslin cloths, storage options and doll’s prams.

But the modern kitchen utensils also brighten up your everyday life. The elegant stainless steel cutlery and bar accessories are high quality and durable, in keeping with the Scandinavian style.
GreenGate
GreenGate is known for its crockery and decorative designs in Scandinavian country house style. GreenGate pieces are instantly recognisable by their intricate patterns.

Kähler Design
Kähler has been producing Danish porcelain since 1839. What began with crockery has steadily expanded and today also includes decoration, kitchen accessories and art objects.
