"...Prob[es] the creative philosophy of functionality and simplicity that has made Nordic pieces staples of tasteful interiors the world over."--Surface "This beautifully bound volume celebrates Nordic design in its many shapes and forms... The focus is on design as a means of enhancement, a concept beautifully sheathed here in cloth and red stich" --Image Interiors and Living "Pride in tradition is the cornerstone of The Red Thread: Nordic Design, an encyclopedic exploration of the spare, naturalistic furniture and objects long associated with the region."--New York Times "The Red Thread: this is a Nordic metaphor for a shared characteristic. Shows the common aesthetic of classic Scandi designs."--Elle Decoration "Demonstrates the Nordic region's deep-rooted cultural aesthetic by showcasing the diversity of its design through more than 200 objects. [...] Nordic design's enduring appeal has led to widespread international desire for beautifully designed and expertly crafted objects."--New Design, "...Prob[es] the creative philosophy of functionality and simplicity that has made Nordic pieces staples of tasteful interiors the world over."-Surface, "...Prob[es] the creative philosophy of functionality and simplicity that has made Nordic pieces staples of tasteful interiors the world over."--Surface "This beautifully bound volume celebrates Nordic design in its many shapes and forms...

A comprehensive, if visual, history of design."--Vogue Online "This clothbound book with red stitching is a sunning piece of art designed to inspire and engage."--Self Build & Design "Beautifully presented survey of the Nordic region's hugely influential and enduring contribution to design, a uniquely elegant combination of function, simplicity and natural materials... And in literal fashion, one [a red thread] is cleverly sewn into the grey cloth cover and binding of the book for a richer tactile experience... If you haven't witnessed this remarkable approach for yourself, the pages of The Red Thread will take you on a comprehensive Nordic tour in which you can explore just how optimistic, meaningfully connected and harmonious daily life can be... Gloriously dense with colour photographic examples of Nordic objects - some very famous, some lesser known surprises, making it a must-have collector's title. I dare you not to feel a surge of overwhelming inspiration as you browse its pages; The Red Thread is pure joy for design fans or anyone who loves life."--TheSwelleLife.com "With over 250 pages of beautiful photography and historical context, The Red Thread is a comprehensive look into the far-reaching legacy of Nordic design. It's the type of book you can read cover-to-cover or page through leisurely. Not to mention the fact that the intricate, hardbound cover (complete with actual red threads!) makes for a lovely coffee table book."--Apartment Therapy "The book - part of a Phaidon series on regional design - is almost as much a beautiful catalogue as a primer." --1stdibs Introspective "Celebrated in this stylish new volume... Charming and sincere, this lovely volume presents a vision of life that design-lovers, architects and anyone seeking peace will enjoy. An inspiring summer read." --Identity "The Swedish expression den radar tråden (meaning "the red thread") describes the essence of a piece of creative work'which is what this book sets out to do, by getting into the heart of modern and contemporary Nordic furniture."--Singapore Tatler Homes
