Well I was very pleased to receive an invitation to Nordic Style’s new shop last week, as I haven’t been down to Wimbledon in quite some time and I definitely haven’t receieved my dose of Swedish furniture in a long time either! You might remember an earlier series of posts from their Chelsea shop, where we fell in love with the romantic designs of classic Swedish furniture: A Nordic Style Dream in London (I, II and III).
Well, how exciting that they are now expanding and this time into the beautiful Wimbledon Village. The Village is the most divine little part of London with charming little shops and coffee places, the perfect place to meet the girlfriends for a fika (the closest English equivalent is probably afternoon tea, or just tea really as you meet your friends for a cup of tea or coffee and some cake) or dinner and drinks. Especially perfect in this Mediterranean weather that we are currently experiencing..!
The shop is, as always, so beautifully decorated with softly coloured furniture, fabrics, beautiful tableware and accessories. I obviously love seeing all the names of the pieces, as they make me feel so at home: Halland, Skogaholm, Karlsholm…
Walking around in the shop just makes me want a whole new house to decorate! I do love mixing things up for that unique look that is just my own, and from Nordic Style I would first of all go for their Gustavian Oak Bookcase:
I would also lose myself in all their gorgeous accessories, like my favourite tray below, that I would just love to stack with a gorgeous and healthy breakfast for that Saturday-breakfast-in-bed-situation!
I would love to hear what you think of this Nordic style – is this how you would decorate your house? Do you see anything here that you just love?
I was most of all tempted by a very special piece of antique furniture in the shop and I think that I will just have to save it for the next blog post – so do stay tuned my dear!
And this is where you can visit them:
