Diseño Escandinavo

by Charlotte Fiell

Los escandinavos son excepcionalmente dotados en el diseño. Ellos son famosos por sus inigualables diseños democráticos que son el puente entre artesanías y productos industriales. La unión entre la belleza, las formas orgánicas y la funcionalidad del día a día es una de las principales cualidades del diseño Escandinavo y una de las razones por las cuales las creaciones escandinavas son tan buscadas y queridas.

Reviews

[Erik Waiss · Rating 5 out of 5]

Arguably too deep a dive into this deep hole. Wasn't quite what I expected (I expected more of the MCM furniture that is so popular now), but still quite educational.

Quick guide to significant Scandinavian designers, architects.

Got my nordic obsession on another level.

[Laurian · Rating 3 out of 5]

Interesting. Beautiful pictures. The font was stupid small and it lacked stories to go with the designs. Also, like, women did more than textiles. Look at bit harder. Women are always there.
