The northern table
Ferm Living at Nordicthink
A new collection of contemporary accessories for the home produced by the Danish brand Ferm Living and available at the Nordicthink concept store which recalls the classic modernity of the Bauhaus ad Art Deco art movements.
Ferm Living references the Bauhaus aesthetic for its new collection of home accessories: “simplicity as a standard for elegance,” which also features touches of Art Deco styling. The brand draws on the graphic design of these two movements, based on elemental geometric motifs including circular, triangular and square shapes which are applied to simple everyday items like plate settings, tea towels, table mats and wallpaper. The neutral palette of colours expresses the Scandinavian influence, so typical of Nordic design.
