The dedicated team of journalists, editors, and photographers at Monocles has consistently ventured to every corner of northern Europe, seeking invaluable insights, inspiration, and ideas for enhancing the quality of life. This book goes beyond the overhyped \"hygge trend\" or obsessing over foamy food. Instead, it delves into a shared but distinct set of values that have propelled diverse nations to excel in the art of quiet diplomacy, thoughtful design, and reasoned debate. Monocle ventures beyond the clichés and unveils the individuals, firms, and stories that contribute to the region's remarkable reputation in various domains, including art, architecture, gastronomy, and beyond. Rather than grouping these nations together, the Monocle team highlights the unique characteristics of each, showcasing the lessons we can all draw from the makers in Norway's far north or the retailers reaching new heights in Reykjavik. The book also explores the firms constructing bridges in Denmark and the Swedish soft power they export abroad. The world stands to gain a wealth of knowledge from our close northern neighbors, and \"The Monocle Book of the Nordics\" serves as an ideal starting point for this enlightening journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1410g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 233 x 313 x 23 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780500971215\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tyler Brule,Andrew Tuck,Joe Pickard","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105236939002,"sku":"9780500971215","price":35.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646158323641_book.jpg?v=1646914002","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-monocle-book-of-the-nordics-an-exploration-of-design-business-food-fashion-9780500971215","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
