Collection: Scandinavian Design

Our Scandinavian collection brings together the names that defined the look and the studios carrying it forward. Louis Poulsen has made Poul Henningsen's layered PH lamps since the 1920s, along with designs by Arne Jacobsen and Verner Panton. Gubi revives mid-century classics like the Semi pendant, Le Klint folds its pleated shades by hand in Denmark, and Muuto, UMAGE, Pholc, Mater and Pilke bring a fresh, modern take on Nordic design.

Popular Scandinavian Lighting Fixtures

Scandinavian Pendant Lights: The pendant is the heart of Nordic lighting. Layered shades, simple domes and pleated paper direct light down onto the table while hiding the bulb, giving a soft pool of light without glare.

Scandinavian Chandeliers: Multi-light and sculptural fixtures bring presence to dining rooms and living spaces while keeping the light gentle and even.

Scandinavian Wall Lights: Simple sconces in metal, wood or glass add light beside a bed, along a hallway or over a reading chair, often with swing arms or adjustable heads.

Scandinavian Table and Floor Lamps: Nordic lamps are made for layering. A table lamp in a window or a floor lamp beside a sofa adds warm, low light that makes a room feel inviting after dark.

Bringing Scandinavian Style Home

Start with one iconic pendant over the dining table. In Nordic homes the dining table is the center of the house, and a well-shaded pendant hung low creates a warm, intimate glow. Then layer lamps around the room at different heights instead of relying on bright overhead light.

Scandinavian lighting looks best with light woods, white and pale gray walls, wool and linen, and plenty of open space. It pairs naturally with mid-century modern furniture, and it sits easily alongside minimalist and organic modern interiors. Choose warm, dimmable bulbs to get the soft, cozy light the style is known for.
