Scandinavian Design at Formland

Just back from a hectic break in Denmark I am happy to report that I also managed to squeeze in a quick trip to Formland,  for me is the most inspiring trade show in Scandinavia. I mainly focused on the "New Note" an area dedicated to spotting tomorrow's international trends and found myself drawn towards old favourites such as By Nord Copenhagen, designerSHIP, Neon Living and Louise Roe Design Essentials.

Heavenly stairs ...

Loving the fact that something as functional and sturdy as a staircase manages to be

 as beautiful as a sculpture 

dominating yet not overpowering ...

Danish design on tour

Yesterday I went to check out the Danish hospitality house during London 2012 and what an wonderful experience it was too! Yes it was raining but as we all got handed a rain poncho it really didn't put a damper on things and people even sat down to watch the games on the large screen provided!

I was obviously excited to see our TASTE collection from designerSHIP forming part of "Danish Design on Tour" all exhibited in a gorgeous sustainable house of course!

With free entrance and free Danish hot dogs and gourmet tasters it really is a day out for everyone!

Don't just take my word for it go and check out the Danish spirit for yourself!

Great TASTE with designerSHIP...

I got SO excited this morning when these fresh images from designerSHIP landed in my inbox. The photos are from the Danish designed collection TASTE, and you may recall that they won the prize for the most distinctive new design product at the Formland trade show in Denmark earlier this year.
