Editors’ Picks: 11 Scandi Storage Must-Haves

June 28, 2019

We asked our editors to choose their favorite stylish Scandi storage tools (beyond Ikea)—and they delivered with a collection of proven classics they have in their own homes, as well as new finds they can’t wait to get their hands on. Here, their 11 favorites.
