This special ‘Nordic’ issue of ICON celebrates the best design and architecture across the Nordic countries, from influential Danish architect Dorte Mandrup to emerging Icelandic circular design studio Flétta. We delve into the world of a new wave of maximalist designers from the region – creating riotously colourful, joyful objects that buck expectations – and meet an emerging generation of innovative fashion designers from Helsinki.
The Nordic region is home to some of the most extreme climates, sparsely populated landscapes and hard-to-access locations, and in this issue, Ellinor Thunberg takes us on a journey to some of the most remote architecture in Iceland and Norway, and the stories behind their realisation (would you take a horse three hours each way just to build a house?!).
There’s so much more, including: JKMM’s Dance House Helsinki, the Danish projects tackling urban flooding, Sámi-Norwegian architect and artist Joar Nango, the designers working with food waste, iconic Swedish architect Sigurd Lewerentz – and plenty more besides.
