We Love This
We Love This: luxury bedroom textiles There’s much to admire in Scandinavia’s staggering oeuvre of design: Aalto’s light-bending architectural forms, Arne Jacobsen’s genius Egg Chair, Royal Copenhagen’s ubiquitous everyday ceramic luxury, plus fashion, homeware and product designers aplenty. Isn’t it… exhausting? Wouldn’t you like to lie down for a minute and recuperate? Of course you would – and only the finest Scandinavian bedding will do. It should be comfortable, practical and stylish – with a hint of decadence. Here, we’ve listed five top Scandinavian textile brands to help you get some designer shut-eye. By Lena Hunter

This Palm Bed Cover is 100 per cent cotton, quilted by hand and features a bold stitched design that will remind you of sunnier days. Palm Bed Cover, 235x245cm, €375 www.bongusta.dk
