The Red Thread: Nordic Design

beschrijving

From literature to food, lifestyle to fashion,
cinema to architecture, Nordic influence
is evident throughout contemporary culture.
The Red Thread: Nordic Design celebrates
this deep-rooted aesthetic, showcasing the
diversity of design from Scandinavia and
Finland via more than 200 objects - from
everyday items to exquisitely produced
decorative glassware, and from traditional
handmade textiles to mass-produced products
found in homes across the globe. The title is
taken from a metaphor, common in the Nordic
countries, of a shared and highlighted
characteristic (like a long connecting thread in
woven material), that runs through and connects
themes, ideas, stories, and, in this case, design.
