Scandinavian furniture brands at a glance

Scandinavian furniture brands are known for their focus on quality, natural materials and simple, neutral colours. Combined with simple decorations and the right home textiles, the result is a pleasant and cosy atmosphere. Scandinavian design is also becoming increasingly popular in other countries. The selection of furniture brands is correspondingly large. You can find out which ones there are in this overview.

What characterises Scandinavian furniture brands

Scandinavian furniture ranges from exclusive designs to affordable yet stylish pieces. One reason for this is that Scandinavian design aims to make functional and aesthetic furnishings accessible to everyone. Different Scandinavian brands set different priorities and are characterised by their very own style. Find out which brands there are and how they differ here.

Nordic-style furniture brands

Nordic-style furniture brands offer a combination of minimalism and aesthetics. Muted colours, natural wood and a sleek, airy design play a particularly important role here. If you want, you can put together your own customised furnishings. However, coordinated furniture ranges and groups also offer advantages.

&Tradition

&Tradition is the address for 20th century Scandinavian design. The Danish brand has been reissuing Scandinavian design classics since 2010.

The individually interpreted pieces are based on designs from the 1920s to the present day. Berlin, London and Shanghai are just some of the places outside Scandinavia where the label is based.
