A New Nordic Holiday Story

by Julia Thorell
Illustrator & author

For this year’s holidays, we have invited Swedish illustrator Julia Thorell to explore the modern traditions of the season. Based on the concept of a New Nordic Holiday story, she has created a shared festive table for our family and friends.

The scene is inspired by childhood memories and imbued with the lively, sometimes chaotic energy of family gatherings. Julia Thorell lives in Stockholm and is the author of several books on coming of age, families and modern relationships, including two graphic novels and the children’s book ‘Julia’s World’, which has also been translated into Chinese.

Get in the holiday mood with Julia's illustrations that will be on display in all ARKET shop windows from 26 November

How to care for suede

Suede is crafted from the underside of leather hides, offering a soft, fuzzy finish. Due to its delicate nature, it is important to properly care for your suede products to extend their lifespan.

Baked shallots

Shallots become extra sweet and tender when baked in the oven. Serve them slightly warm in salads, sandwiches and wraps, or add them to soups and stews for some savory umami flavour.

On scents and the mapping of beauty

Scent is memory, place, and time – an invisible thread that links the material character of nature with the subjective realm of dreams, evoking emotions and connecting the past with the present.
