Simplicity & Style: Explore Melbourne's Scandinavian Furniture Range
Scandinavian design is celebrated for its simplicity, functionality, and timeless appeal. Emerging from the Nordic countries in the early 20th century, this design philosophy has evolved into a global trend that continues to influence modern interiors. Known for its minimalistic approach and natural materials, Scandinavian furniture embodies a perfect balance between form and function, making it a popular choice for those who seek a serene and inviting atmosphere in their living spaces.
 The Essence of Scandinavian Design
 At the heart of Scandinavian design is a commitment to simplicity and practicality. This design style strips away unnecessary ornamentation, focusing on clean lines, natural light, and a neutral color palette. The goal is to create spaces that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing, where every piece of furniture serves a purpose. Scandinavian interiors often feature open floor plans, which allow for easy movement and a sense of spaciousness.
 Handmade Furniture: Craftsmanship Meets Minimalism
 One of the hallmarks of Scandinavian design is the emphasis on craftsmanship. Handmade furniture plays a significant role in this design philosophy, with artisans paying meticulous attention to detail and quality. Each piece of furniture is crafted with care, ensuring that it not only looks beautiful but also stands the test of time. 
Handmade furniture often incorporates traditional woodworking techniques, passed down through generations, combined with contemporary design elements. This blend of old and new results in pieces that are both timeless and relevant to modern living. The simplicity of Scandinavian furniture allows the craftsmanship to shine, highlighting the natural beauty of the materials and the skill of the artisan. 
Functional Beauty in Every Room
 Scandinavian furniture is versatile and adaptable, making it suitable for any room in the home. Whether it’s the living room, bedroom, dining area, or home office, this design style offers solutions that are both practical and stylish.
 In the living room, Scandinavian sofas and chairs are often characterized by their sleek silhouettes and neutral upholstery. These pieces provide comfort without overwhelming the space, allowing for a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. Coffee tables and side tables in light wood finishes complement the seating arrangements, offering both functionality and visual harmony.
In the bedroom, Scandinavian beds and storage solutions prioritize simplicity and organization. Beds are typically low-profile, with clean lines and minimal detailing. Storage pieces, such as wardrobes and dressers, are designed to maximize space while maintaining a clutter-free environment. The use of natural materials and soft, muted colors creates a calming and restful ambiance, perfect for a good night’s sleep. 
The dining area benefits from Scandinavian design’s focus on social interaction and communal living. Dining tables are often crafted from solid wood, with a minimalist design that encourages gathering and conversation. Paired with ergonomic chairs, these tables create a welcoming space for meals with family and friends.
 Bringing Scandinavian Style to the Home Office 
With the increasing importance of remote work, the home office has become a key area of focus in interior design. Scandinavian furniture offers a solution that is both functional and inspiring, making it an ideal choice for creating a productive work environment.
 Desks in Scandinavian design are typically minimalist, with clean lines and ample workspace. They often include built-in storage solutions to keep the area organized and free of clutter. The use of natural materials, such as wood and metal, adds warmth to the space, while the simplicity of the design promotes focus and concentration. 
Chairs are equally important in the home office, and Scandinavian design offers a range of ergonomic options that prioritize comfort without sacrificing style. These chairs are designed to support good posture and reduce strain during long hours of work. With their sleek design and neutral colors, they seamlessly blend into the overall aesthetic of the home office.
Lighting: A Key Element in Scandinavian Interiors 
Lighting is a crucial component of Scandinavian design, as it enhances the overall ambiance of the space. In the Nordic countries, where daylight is limited during the winter months, lighting plays a significant role in creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. 
Scandinavian lighting fixtures are often simple and functional, with a focus on natural light sources. Floor lamps, pendant lights, and wall sconces are commonly used to create layers of light, providing both general illumination and task lighting. The design of these fixtures is typically understated, allowing them to complement the furniture without drawing too much attention. In addition to artificial lighting, Scandinavian design emphasizes the importance of maximizing natural light. Large windows, often left uncovered or with minimal window treatments, allow sunlight to flood the space. This not only brightens the room but also connects the interior with the natural world outside.
 Adding Personal Touches with Scandinavian Accessories 
While Scandinavian design is known for its simplicity, it also allows for personal expression through carefully chosen accessories. These elements add warmth and character to the space, making it feel more like home. 
Textiles play a significant role in adding texture and comfort to Scandinavian interiors. Throws, cushions, and rugs made from natural fibers, such as wool and linen, introduce softness and warmth. These textiles are often in neutral tones, but pops of color can be added through patterned cushions or a vibrant rug.
 The Timeless Appeal of Scandinavian Design
 Scandinavian furniture and design have a timeless appeal that transcends trends. Its emphasis on simplicity, functionality, and natural materials creates spaces that are both beautiful and practical. Whether furnishing a new home or updating an existing space, Scandinavian furniture offers a versatile and enduring solution. 
By embracing the principles of Scandinavian design, individuals can create interiors that are not only stylish but also conducive to a balanced and harmonious lifestyle.
 In a world where trends come and go, the enduring qualities of Scandinavian design make it a wise choice for those seeking a timeless and versatile aesthetic. Whether it’s the living room, bedroom, dining area, or home office, Scandinavian furniture offers the perfect blend of simplicity and style for any space.

John Wardle Architects + Ash Keating Studio, Solar Pavilion
The Solar Pavilion is one of 15 pilot projects by leading Australian architects commissioned by Finding Infinity for ‘A New Normal’: a comprehensive plan for Melbourne to become a fully self-sufcient city by 2030. John Wardle Architects designed a network of outdoor structures atop an inner-city rooftop that doubles as a cultural events space and surface area for solar electricity generation. Artist Ash Keating created the mural overlooking it.
SKEEHAN Studio + ROU House, ROU House
ROU House is a new design studio founded by stylist and curator Rachel Byron and industrial designer Tom Skeehan. The studio was born from the desire to create a curated collection of meaningful products that celebrate materiality and highlight the value of good design. Through close collaboration and engagement with Australian manufacturers and local design talent, ROU seeks to nurture and promote the growth of the industry on our shores – a vision made only more vital after a year of international challenge.

Please Please Please + Bergman & Co., Poodle
Tasked with designing a ‘new neighbourhood local’ within a double-fronted terrace on Melbourne’s iconic Gertrude Street, Bergman & Co. sought to create a unique identity for the hospitality venue, differentiated from its established neighbours. A key tenet in achieving this vision was to create bespoke elements to bring Poodle’s imaginative interior identity to life.
As life partner to Bergman & Co. director Wendy Bergman, Paul Grummisch of Please Please Please became a key collaborator, developing and executing an expansive collection of signature ‘Poodle’ pieces.
Drawing on the much-loved character of Fitzroy and the clients‘ Italian heritage, the design team developed a narrative around authenticity, effortlessness, and nostalgia. References to the classic Italian diner were interwoven with hints at the 20th century Aussie-Italian suburban experience.
Trent Jansen Studio + Johnny Nargoodah, Ngumu Janka Warnti Collection
The Walmajarri phrase ‘Ngumu Jangka Warnti’ meaning ‘whole lot from rubbish’, is the title of a furniture collaboration between Nyikina man and saddler, Johnny Nargoodah, and furniture/object designer, Trent Jansen. 
The collection began with a trip to the local scrap metal yard, in a vague search for anything interesting. Johnny and Trent salvaged a selection of discarded aluminium mesh and used this found metal as the starting point for experimentation. The duo designed these pieces as they made them, starting with a mesh substrate cut vaguely in the shape of a chair, and together beat the material with hammers, concrete blocks and tree stumps until it took on a form that they both liked. This beaten geometry was then softened by laminating New Zealand saddle leather to skin the mesh, masking its geometry and softening its idiosyncratic undulations.
Johnny and Trent created their designs remotely, developing a collaborative ‘sketch exchange’ system to ferry prototype designs between Johnny’s home in Fitzroy Crossing in Western Australia, and Trent’s on the south-east coast of NSW.

Mud Australia + APY Art Centre Collective, Mud x APY

This week was my last at @northcotepotterysupplies as a guest artist in residence. My residency was split in two due to the lockdown but I am so grateful for the opportunity to develop my work. Special shout out to @elisesheehan NPS's educational coordinator for her mentorship and support during this weird year. Here's some thoughts on my ongoing project! 'I have spent time during my residency at Northcote Pottery exploring new forms, making plaster moulds for slipcasting and reconnecting with my interest in functional ware. The first half of my residency I spent slipcasting shells, including shells found locally, at restaurants and soap dishes from my grandmother's house. I became interested in shells last year while doing a residency overseas in Peru, and collaborating with contemporary jewellery artist @katherine_hubble Shells are a common archetypal motif long associated with pottery across many cultures. In my art practice, I am interested in challenging historical archetypes associated with painting, sculpture and ceramics, with a particular interest in the canvas, vessel, frame and plinth. However I have missed making functional ware, which I love for its democratic and accessible nature, and have enjoyed making platters, plates and small loopy stands for cups and planters. I have also enjoyed teaching handbuilding workshops exploring these forms, as education forms a large part of my practice too. Due to the Melbourne lockdown my residency was suspended for several months, and I spent time at home reassessing where I wanted to go with my project. I live in my grandmother's old flat, and spend a lot of time using her crockery, furniture and utensils. I love vintage pottery especially floral and frilly plates from the mid-20th century, as they remind me of her. I decided I would try using these pieces as moulds and templates for a range of vintage-inspired functional pieces. I also picked up a few extra pieces to use as inspiration at the local op-shop. Next year, in addition to my art practice, I plan to sell small-batch handbuilt functional pieces, under the name @madsielouise my old Instagram handle and blog title when I was younger.'

Don’t forget the west: mid-century modern and David Foulkes Taylor
https://images.theconversation.com/files/56965/original/w6tfnyjg-1408581081.jpg?ixlib=rb-1.1.0&q=45&auto=format&w=496&fit=clip
Why has David Foulkes Taylor again been left out of the history of mid-century Australian design? Ted Snell
In 1982, I wrote an introduction to a survey exhibition of the work of Western Australian furniture designer David Foulkes Taylor lamenting that so little attention had ��… been directed towards the recording of art and culture in Western Australia” – despite an upsurge in publications on Australian art history. The exhibition and catalogue documenting Foulkes Taylor’s contribution was an attempt to redress that oversight.
David Foulkes Taylor in 1965.
Sadly that effort seems to have failed. Kirsty Grant, the curator of the current Mid-Century Modern: Australian furniture design exhibition at the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV), has omitted any reference to Foulkes Taylor’s work. His contribution to creating an appetite for modern design in Western Australia does not rate a mention. The exhibition and its substantial catalogue present a comprehensive survey of modern furniture design in Sydney and Melbourne from the second world war till the 1970s – but it is disappointing that such a misleading tagline was appended.
In a truly national survey you would expect to see some coverage of David Foulkes Taylor. The NGV publication makes no mention of any activity past the 129th meridian east longitude. The curator does note that her survey is “selective in its focus and with an emphasis on activities in Melbourne and Sydney”. Still, it’s hard to reconcile how emphasis can condone an omission on this scale.
It would have been more accurate to borrow from the show’s predecessor at the Queensland Art Gallery last year, California Design 1930–1965: Living in a Modern Way, and abandon the aspiration to present a nation-wide survey.
To set the record straight, Foulkes Taylor not only designed some important examples of modern furniture, but he also encouraged local manufacturers Charles and Roy Catt to build mass-produced jarrah furniture that had a lasting presence in the local market.
Influenced as a student at the Central School of Art in London by the light and delicate lines of Italian designers like Gio Ponti, on his return to Perth he modified his response to suit the available conditions. He had a passion for the native jarrah timber. Hard but brittle, the wood required a more robust treatment. Foulkes Taylor’s work presented a more sculptural form while concurrently highlighting the richness of the colour and grain.
David Foulkes Tayor’s Poona chair. Ted Snell
Commissions for University House at the University of Western Australia and private clients followed. His inventiveness led him to explore other materials such as tubular steel and to respond inventively to external influences.
This experimental approach led to his adaption of a British army demountable chair, which he called the Poona. His canvas, leather and jarrah chair came in kit form and was described in The Age on October 12 1959 as “…resurrected and revamped by the brilliant Perth designer David Foulkes Taylor and is sold (£15) by Andersons in Chapel Street”.
In the 1950s he almost single-handedly created an appetite for modern design in Perth by importing work by international designers such as Marimekko, Arabia, Alvo Alto and Marcel Breuer and showing local artists and designers in his home and later in a purpose-built modernist showroom. This was designed by Julius Elischer and opened in 1965.
Showroom designed by Julius Elischer. Ted Snell
While a student at Geelong Grammar, Foulkes Taylor’s art teacher had been Ludwig Hirschfeld Mack, who taught a curriculum based on his experience as a student at the Bauhaus and later teacher at the University of Craft and Architecture in Weimar. That early introduction to modernist design and the principle of economy of form inspired him throughout his life. In his showroom he combined the best in Scandinavian and Japanese design with his own furniture, creating a magnet for those attracted to the rising tide of internationalism that was sweeping Perth into the 20th century.
The former country town was shedding its husk and taking on the role of international city. Perth was in the spotlight. With the modernist Council House designed by Jeffrey Howlett and [Don Bailey](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Bailey_(architect) rising up from St Georges Terrace, Howard Taylor’s murals in the newly completed Passenger Terminal in Fremantle and new modernist buildings completed to house Commonwealth Games athletes, it was necessary for the citizens of this revived city to look modern too; to buy new furniture, lamps and fabrics and art by local artists.
The place to buy was David Foulkes Taylor’s white showroom on Broadway, and many did.
Foulkes Taylor’s tragic death in a car accident in 1966 ended the contribution of this inspired designer and impassioned advocate for modern design. It is unfortunate his contribution is not acknowledged alongside Grant Featherstone, Clement Meadmore, Wolfgang Sievers, Fred Ward and the other great Australian designers listed in Mid-Century Modern.
Ted Snell does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond their academic appointment.
