Super-Store. With a mission to "market and sell Scandinavian Design worldwide" we thought it was time to devote a store post to the online retailer Scandinavian Design Center. After all, we've posted many products from the Sweden-based company: Pappelina Plastic Rugs, Contactbox, Nisse Strinning's String Shelving System and Green Fortune's Streamgarden to name a few...
Covering a wide range of product categories, Scandinavian Design Center carries furniture, towels & linens, an abundance of unique tabletop & servingware, kid stuff and even jewelry. Products come from well-known companies (like Marimekko) and small-scale Scandinavian designers.
Most items are shipped worldwide — some bulkier items require special arrangements. Our only note of caution concerns lighting — Scandinavian Design Center carries a lot of beautiful lighting but make certain lamps are suitable for the U.S. market before buying! Many have European voltage standards which are dangerous when paired with U.S. power supplies!
Do any ATers have experience ordering from Scandinavian Design Center?
I've considered ordering the Nisse Strinning shelving from them, as they seem to be the only retailer who will ship them to the US. However, with VAT and shipping, the price becomes outrageous.

The latest issue of MetHome covers a restaurant in Stockholm with the white Windsor-plus chairs shown here (designer Marten Cyren). Wow.
