This is the origin of modern Nordic style design.

Modern Nordic style mainly refers to the interior and furniture design styles of Norway, Denmark, Sweden and Finland, emphasizing functionality and people-oriented design.

The formation of modern Nordic style should start from the geographical environment of the four Nordic countries. Because the Nordic region is located near the Arctic Circle, the climate is very cold, and resources (more forests but less food) are relatively scarce, so the Nordic people pay more attention to practicality and functionality, and don't care about flashy decoration.

Or because of environmental reasons, the long winter days in northern Europe are short, and in some places there will be "extreme nights" for half a year. The boring outdoor environment makes Nordic people prefer to use a large area of bright solid colors in the choice of home colors.

In addition, the traditional ideas of the Nordic people have a great influence on the formation of modern Nordic style. Respect for nature and material itself is a traditional concept that Nordic people attach great importance to.

Nordic people, on the other hand, emphasize the perfect combination of simple structure and comfortable function. Even when designing a chair, we should not only pursue the beauty of its shape, but also pay attention to the human body structure. Pay attention to how its curve fits perfectly with the human body when it is in contact, so as to make it harmonious with the human body and feel comfortable.

At the beginning of the 20th century, after the establishment of modern industry in northern Europe, local traditional handicrafts were combined with industrialization, and influenced by the modernist design movement in continental Europe, which set off a revolution in design ideas, combined art with practicality, and formed a more comfortable and humanized design style.

After this long history, the modern Nordic style finally took shape and rose. In Sheng Xing, Sweden in 1930s and 1940s, Danish designers blossomed in 1950s and 1960s, and in Finland in 1960s, there was a design trend.

During this period, a large number of designers emerged, such as egg chair, ArneJacobsen, designer of ant chair, VernerPanton, founder of "S" chair, etc. It has pushed the modern Nordic style to the extreme.
