20th Century Scandinavia

Overview

We've all been drooling over Scandinavian-inspired furniture and décor for a while now. But sometimes it's hard to distinguish between economical, IKEA-esque goods — which certainly have their place, ahem, those tiny light wood stools in every cafe across the country — and the kind of pieces you'll keep forever. If you're looking for the former, you already know where to go. However, if the latter is more your style you can't go past 20th Century Scandinavia. Boasting vintage furnishings that tread the perfect line between retro and modern, this store has something for everyone. The family-run business gets in new shipments from Denmark on the reg, so there's always newly refurbished pieces hitting the shop floor.

Weekend shoppers, be sure to also check out the warehouse showroom located just down the road at 41 St Phillip Street, Brunswick East, which is open 11am–4pm, Saturday and Sunday, or by appointment.
