From the Nordic countries are coming many world-renown brands like Lego, Carlsberg, H&M, Ikea, Marimekko and Tiger of Sweden, and Nordic design has flourished for almost 70 years.

Nordic design and fashion and Nordic architecture are characterized by functionality, minimalism and simplicity, and is simple, beautiful and often inspired by the Nordic nature and climate. Nordic design and brands are concepts and you find it in many design products as furniture, textiles and fashion as in interior design.

The Nordic design was not fully recognised until the 1950s. Since then many nordic designers have made a global mark by creating unique designs and brands.

Nordic Countries have the happiest population, the best education and are one of the wealthiest countries in the world and have extended into the world of fashion and lifestyle as well.

As Nordics, we have here made a Nordic brand guide, where you can find the most famous brands and where to buy it.
