520    Discover classic and contemporary Scandinavian style with 
       specially commissioned photography of homes in Denmark, 
       Norway, Sweden and Finland. Scandinavia is famous for its 
       distinctive style: homes are pared-back and simple, and 
       form and function are combined to create aesthetically 
       pleasing and practical interiors. Scandinavians are 
       inspired by light, having an abundance of it in summer but
       so little of it in winter, and house designs tend to 
       maximize the amount of natural light that enters the home,
       and allow the inhabitants to make the most of outdoor life
       during the summer. Similarly, nature and the weather are 
       major influences: homes are made warm and cosy for the 
       freezing winter months - not just literally with log 
       burners, but also through incorporating wood and natural 
       materials. Here Niki Brantmark, owner of the interior 
       design blog My Scandinavian Home, presents a wide-ranging 
       collection of these beautiful homes and explores how the 
       Scandinavian lifestyle is reflected in them all. The first
       chapter, Urban Living, features styles ranging from 
       minimalist to bohemian, and pale palettes to dramatic dark
       colours. By contrast, the Country Homes tend to have a 
       softer, calmer feel, through colour and textiles, in line 
       with a slower pace of life. Finally, the spectacular Rural
       Retreats include a mountain cabin, beach house and rustic 
       summer cottage, and demonstrate how having somewhere to 
       escape to is so important to many Scandinavians. This 
       collection of stunning interiors will put Scandi style 
       within every reader's reach
