Finally the Scandi feel has made its way into our cutlery drawers...
Crafted and contoured out of titanium, Ichi Titanium cutlery by Ole Palsby Design brings an appealingly masculine edge to the kitchen. Why keep these beauties hidden away?

When love is a Scandinavian Typography poster
I have been in love with graphic and typography posters for a very long time but until now haven't actually been selling any in the shop. All that changed when I got in touch with Tobias one of the creative people behind HOWAREYOUSWEDEN! They brought out "Aa", their first ever poster earlier this month and I immediately knew that it had to go on our shelves ....
I must be honest here.. my first love goes to Playtype! I've been an admirer for a long time and have often been swooning over their posters when reading Danish magazines. It would feel like a betrayal to stock the "Aa" poster without also bringing in Playtype so I'm very proud to say that Skandivis has now become the first UK stockist of these posters too!
You may not have come across Playtype...but Playtype is an online type foundry started by the Copenhagen-based design agency, e-Types. Quite apart from their range of amazing typeface they sell these fabulous posters with blown up letters in a range of fonts.
The above roomshots are photos from as featured in the book Northern Delights as well as in Danish magazines Rum(top) and Bo Bedre (bottom)

Easter eggs in monochrome
I've fallen in love with these edgy monochrome Easter eggs! And as it's a Danish tradition to paint eggs on Easter Sunday I now feel sufficiently inspired and brave to break away from the traditional Easter colours and have a go at creating some fresh and contemporary looking eggs for myself. The eggs have been decorated by the Swedish blogger Anna-Malin for the Swedish Magazine: "Skona Hem".

Cool restaurant - Nordic designed
Really, what's not to love about the cool Copenhagen restaurant "Höst", the result of a successful collaboration between two well know Danish brands Norm Architects and Menu? Above all, I totally love its unmistakably cosy Scandinavian feel! Höst means harvest in Danish and autumn in Swedish! The restaurant has definitely got that unique autumnal weathered look largely achieved by using materials such as recycled wood and old cast iron that have been left to age gracefully.

Get in the Nordic mood
Looking at these photos from the beautifully styled By Nord catalogue makes me feel happy! Yes autumn is here, but put on a cosy sweater, light a fire and all is still well with the world!

The Fabulous Goose ...
I adore the Danish brand Fabulous Goose and I'm over the moon finally to have it in my shop!
The patterns for the baby and kids blankets are cut by hand out of paper, inspired by the great H.C. Andersen and the way he made the paper cuts for his fairy tales.
The blankets are nostalgic as well as contemporary & just sooooo cute!

Easter cuteness
I first came across Spagat, a graphic design agency on PureDeco. Within minutes I was swooning over their seriously cool studio and the very cute Easter decorations. Designed by the owner Sidsel Gaustadnes, these cuties are certain to make a splash this Easter.
♡
Spagat, the name behind this charming design translates to doing the splits!
loving this studio
Creative spacious feel

The birds should also feel it's Christmas time
I found this very sweet bird food recipe on Stylisimo. I did have a go at making it last night with the view of taking photos as I went along. Sadly I have to report that I didn't manage to make it look anywhere as nice as the ones made by Sylisimo so not worthy of featuring here.
Do follow the procedure carefully and you will be laughing. Do not make any short cuts! Believe me the coconut oil really has to cool down before mixing in the seeds!
Here goes:
- Melt some coconut fat and let it cool in cold water.
- Blend in some bird seeds.
- Once the fat starts to harden again pour in gingerbread shapes
- Make sure to make a hole for the cotton I used small birthday candles but anything will do.
Once set hang out in the garden for the birds to feast on this Christmas!

A Summer House In Denmark
You will find this lovely summer house in Jutland in an area known as the Western Sea (The North Sea to you and I). The house is situated so close to the sea that you are able hear and feel the waves breaking. This is my idea of heaven!
