Stroll Through the Meadows with Nördika by Jeni Baker
July 23, 2013
We're thrilled to announce the arrival of Nördika by Jeni Baker!
A collection that was inspired by the Scandinavian countryside. The story of Nördika is rich with folkloric, graphic florals that play with bold geometrics and plaids.
For those that don't know Jeni, she is the master-mind behind In Color Order. A blog in which Jeni showcases her fabric collections, offers patterns and projects, and shares creative insight into the beautiful and rewarding world of sewing and quilting. It is also the best place to get your Nördika inspiration from.
Simple, minimal and functional with striking prints and splashes of bold color. These characteristics are definitive of true Scandinavian design.
Nördika's modern floral motifs have been reimagined and translated into a contemporary depiction of life in the mountains. Ornate reds, inky greys and nuances of clementine and seafoam create a high-altitude sensation.

Waking up to a breeze and trees that flutter outside your window--sunrise's broken light peers through, awakening a new day with new adventures and creations to be imagined. A stunning representation of Nördika, this video also embodies a connection to an innocent, whimsical and handmade way of living.
Beautifully filmed in Serbia by our über talented friend, Katarina Roccella. Katarina's aesthetic resonates perfectly with the AGF way, and we're lucky to have had her skill sets in helping us present this collection to the public. We recommend you check out her multi-disciplinary range of work by going directly to her website.
