Slettvoll - Dream Sofas

I live in the hope that Norwegian family-run furniture makers Slettvoll will one day start selling their beautiful, simple and luxurious furniture in the UK. Until then I shall keep dropping in to their stores in Oslo and Ski when I go 'home' to visit family, and of course there is Slettvoll's website which is full of inspiration. Their furniture is made to order, and they are currently offering a 10% discount on everything. Their pieces can be shipped outside Scandinavia if you ask them nicely.

These images from Slettvoll's catalogue remind me of lovely winter weekends, skiing, tobogganing (and the little girl above is using a 'spark' which is a wooden chair on long thin blades that glide on top of the snow - ideal for bringing home a bit of shopping or a teddybear too tired to walk..)

When did you last make a snowlantern...? 

The interior to the right is from a large 'hytte' or 'skistue', a log cabin in the woods or the mountains. Spot the rusty 'Marsala' coloured two-seater velvet sofa, whose elegance creates a great balance with the rustic interior.
