This new coffee shop Scandinavian Coffee House has still not open, but yet it gets me all excited. Why you wonder? From what I have seen of their branding and packing (images below), it looks indeed very promising. A nice mix of great coffee culture with scandinavian roots, showing off scandinavian design, architecture and interior.
But the punchline for me, is that the famous Norwegian architect firm Snøhetta is working on the retail together with Norwegian industrial designer Andreas Engesvik. Its like iceing on the cake, cherry on the top, you get my point! So I am eager to see the result when they open their first shop in Ålesund on the west coast of Norway in May. But the three guys behind the project Kim Haagensen, Sindre Røstad og John Wuya has bigger vision than just staying in Ålesund. Their ambition is to expand to New York and Tokyo.
Can’t wait to see the interior and the concept when its finished. Is doomed to be awesome. Will keep you posted on their progress, and share images of their shop as soon there is something to show. Want to follow the Scandinavian Coffee House, go to their facebook page and press LIKE! Discovered via Made in Norway, images borrowed from that site as well.
I saw this Kaleido trays from HAY first time during the Stockholm Furniture Fair. I fell in love with the bright colors and the graphic shape. My first thought was that it would be perfect to serve food like tapas, it would without a doubt look good on any tablescapes. Or maybe it can be used as office accessories! Many ideas! Ssince they are made to fit into each other its easy to store.

Marble top combined with coloured steel base, in a simple but very elegant design. It really fits in to the nordic style, as in these pictures where it is styled with wooden furnitures. CT09 Enoki is a design by Philipp Mainzer and was presented at trade fair Imm cologne in January. Love the colours.
