embracing simplicity and minimalism,



Our family originates from Finland, one of the nordic countries included in the Scandinavian design movement, Hence the reason you can find many of the elements of scandinavian design throughout our builds.

Scandinave design first came to prominence in the 1950's,from the northern european countries of Denmark, Sweden and Finland and shares many elements with the mid century modern design trend. This style evokes a sense of calmness and

"COMBINING BEAUTY, SIMPLICITY AND FUNCTIONALITY"

WHAT ARE THE ELEMENTS OF SCANDINAVE DESIGN?


- Clean, Simple, Focused Lines


- Bright Airy Spaces


- Embracing a minimalistic approach ( its appeasing to the eye because no clutter)

- Bringing the Outdoors IN, Scandinavians embrace nature and therefore you will find natural tones


- Wood,wood floors, wood accents, light wood colour


- LIGHT ( we love using big windows!!!) Maximize the light coming in.


- Neutral colour palette with pops of colour


- Efficiency and everything has a purpose or job to so








IS THIS STYLE HERE TO STAY?

Yes, we think so. Styles are always changing and evolving but this " trend " has been around for over 50 years.

And who doesn't love wood, light and stone? It never goes out of style.
