SCANDINAVIAN DESIGN - LARS BOLANDER




Attention all Scandinavian design buffs! A gorgeous new 300 page book by design legend Lars Bolander is a must-have for your library. I previewed a copy and was impressed by the beautiful photos and well-written, insightful text. Sure to become a classic, here is what the publisher has to say about it -
 "Lars Bolander, one of Sweden's foremost designers, and author Heather Smith MacIsaac, former Architecture and Design Editor of House and Garden, offer expert guidance and practical advice about achieving a Scandinavian look, incorporating Scandinavian design elements into any décor and mixing traditional and modern, humble and grand."
 It's due out next month, a great gift to keep in mind for the holidays (BTW, Christmas is only 4 months from today)!
