Inspired by the storybook home of the beloved Scandinavian artist Carl Larsson, Wisconsin native Loran Nordgren realized a dream of twenty years: the building of a magnificent home in an idyllic, rural corner of the state. It is a glorious place - of soaring ceilings and intimate rooms, of open views from room to room, of viewing lofts and internal balconies - where a family can gather, share good times, and also find solace and solitude. A virtual village, the Nordgren compound includes a main house, family cottage, and a storehouse clustered around a central courtyard. The story of how a dream became a reality, The Scandinavian Look prodigiously details every aspect of the creative process, from idea to design and construction. This book can serve as a guide for those who are thinking of building their own dream house; if your goals are more modest, and you'd like to know how to choose a color palette or how to do decorative painting, there is a wealth of information to be found here.
