'This book is a glorious love letter to comfort and calm - Scandi style.' -Michelle Ogundehin, writer, author and TV presenter

'Scandi Modern blends dreamy, light-filled homes with genuinely practical advice on how to bring that effortless calm and cocooning Scandinavian feel into your own space. I love how Rebecca and Reena balance interiors escapism with realistic, achievable styling foundations, from materials that age beautifully to rituals that make a house feel lived-in, not styled-for-show. It's thoughtful, grounding and full of ideas I couldn't wait to try at home' - Will Taylor @brightbazaar and The Drew Barrymore Show.

'As someone that loves the idea of blurring the lines of indoor and outdoors, Scandi Modern inspires the reader to embrace the concept fully. I've always been heavily influenced my Scandinavian design and this book has my full attention and appreciation. Reena and Rebecca gave us something beautiful in Scandi Rustic and have now raised the bar.' - Hilton Carter @hiltoncarter

Scandi Modern is a guide to creating a home that feels calm, cosy and intentional. Grounded in the principles of good Scandinavian design, it explores how light, texture, natural materials and curated detail shape spaces that bring out the best in the way we live now.

The book moves from the key foundations of Scandi Modern into clear, room-by-room guidance, offering practical advice on layout, flow, furnishings and the everyday rituals that make a home feel inviting.

Thoughtful, accessible and rooted in real living, Scandi Modern offers a fresh perspective on calm, cosy living.
