Steal This Look: A Wood-Clad Scandi Guest Room in London

July 25, 2023

Working with London-based firm Mike Tuck Studio, Danish-American couple Catherine and Toke Nygaard remodeled their four-bedroom Victorian townhouse in South Hackney with a decidedly Scandinavian bent.

Here we profile the main elements of the look and their individual sources.
