The Story
Colors of Scandinavia
Swedish folk art, known as "Dalmålning", originated in the Dalarna region and features vibrant floral patterns and scenes from rural life.
The Kurbits motif—a stylized gourd-like plant—became iconic in Swedish folk painting, symbolizing prosperity and connection to nature.
Today, Swedish folk art influences modern Scandinavian design with its clean lines, natural motifs, and harmonious color palettes.
