By Nord: Nordic Inspired Interiors
Who isn’t inspired by nature, it’s one of the most common answers when a designer speaks of their inspirations. And how can nature NOT be inspiring… it’s all around us, completely free of charge, transporting, uplifting, and in harmony nature does what it does so well. That’s why when Danielle sent out an email to friends of her shop today about By Nord, I had to show you this Danish label that she now stocks. Danielle has such gorgeous taste, so I always know that if she takes on a new line that is must be stylish, modern, simple and nature-inspired. You can find lots of pretty pillows and duvets in Le Souk right here and big plus — she ships worldwide!
By Nord was founded by graphic designer Hanne Berzant and fashion designer Hanne Louise Roe Andersen. These two friends are inspired by Nordic nature which is quite evident in their work. But beyond being stylish, what I personally enjoy is that this design is really taking that traditional cabin and lodge design up a notch to a more modern, sophisticated feel. I love rustic modern when it’s done right and this is so, soooo right. I also appreciate the marrying of feminine and masculine design elements. What man would bark at his wife for wanting to add a wolf pillow to the sofa accompanied by a lovely floral one? See my point?
Lovely new add to Le Souk, Danielle!

this is so beautiful. i love how the pops of darker colors don’t detract from the overall serenity of the white. i think the white floors play a large role in that, and just buy you so much more white than just walls do.
this is something i love about anna spiro’s work…i actually mentioned the floor factor in my post about her a few weeks back.

Nature is a big inspiration for me as well! I especially love the pillows with the delicate natural images—like the grasses in the picture second to the bottom.

I just love Nordic design. Similarily, I was in Finland last year, and just wanted to scoop up everything I saw. From the fabulous Marimekko prints to the Alvar Aalto designs. Just amazing!

Liza, the lamp is not paper, it’s thin birch veneer. http://www.cathrinekullberg.com/index.php?/project/pendant-light-large/
There are 2 different pendants in addition to the table lamp and it’s gorgeous in real life too.
