The Difference
What Makes Nordic Spaces Different
A different kind of furniture experience.
There are plenty of places to buy furniture in Anchorage. We're not trying to be all of them. We're focused on doing one thing extremely well: helping you find beautifully crafted, modern Scandinavian furniture you'll love living with for years.
Why Choose Nordic Spaces?
Most furniture shopping happens under the wrong conditions. Overwhelming showrooms. Pressure-driven sales floors. Endless options that all start to look the same. By the time you make a decision, you're tired, second-guessing yourself, and not entirely sure what you're getting.
Nordic Spaces is built differently on purpose. Our showroom is curated, not crowded. Our team is consultative, not commissioned-driven. And the brands we carry are chosen because they hold up to a higher standard, not because they fill more square footage. The result is a calmer, more thoughtful experience that produces a better outcome: a home that actually feels like yours.
Five Things That Set Us Apart
1. Authentic Scandinavian Design
Our focus on modern Scandinavian and Nordic-inspired design means every piece reflects clean lines, considered function, and an aesthetic philosophy that values quality over trend. We carry brands handcrafted in Denmark (Skovby), built in Norway (Stressless), and designed across North America in the same tradition (BDI, American Leather, Palliser, Greenington). It's a focused selection you won't find at a typical big-box retailer.
2. Customization That Fits Your Home
Almost everything in our showroom can be customized. Fabrics, leathers, wood stains, hardware, dimensions, configurations, base styles. Our team walks you through every option in person, so you're not guessing what a swatch looks like in person or how a fabric will hold up to daily life. The result is furniture made for your space, not adapted to it.
3. Knowledgeable, Genuine Design Guidance
Our on-staff designers know our products from craftsmanship to functionality. They can tell you the difference between a kiln-dried hardwood frame and a particleboard one, why a Stressless mechanism feels different from a typical recliner, and how a Skovby extending dining table actually performs at a family dinner. The experience feels thoughtful and personal, not like a typical pushy sales floor.
4. A Curated Showroom, Not an Overwhelming One
Instead of endless aisles filled with options that blur together, Nordic Spaces offers a carefully chosen collection. Each piece is selected for quality, design integrity, and how well it works in real homes. That means less decision fatigue for you, and more confidence that whatever you bring home was chosen for the right reasons.
5. Built to Last
Many of the brands carried at Nordic Spaces are known for exceptional construction: solid woods, durable finishes, full-grain leathers, and engineering designed for everyday life. These are pieces made to live with for years, not replace in five. The investment pays back over time, both in how the furniture looks and how it feels to live with.
How Does Nordic Spaces Compare to Other Furniture Stores?
Big-box and discount retailers compete on volume and price, often at the cost of quality and longevity. Independent designers offer custom service but often add significant fees and lead times. Nordic Spaces sits intentionally in between: premium brands at fair prices, custom options included, free design guidance, and a curated selection that respects your time.
If you're choosing between buying disposable furniture twice and investing in something that will last, we want to be the easy choice for the second.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I shop at Nordic Spaces instead of a big-box store?
Big-box stores compete on price and breadth. Nordic Spaces competes on quality, design integrity, and personalized service. The brands we carry are built to last decades, our designers help you make confident decisions, and almost everything is customizable. If you're investing in furniture you want to keep for years, our combination of curation, customization, and guidance is hard to match locally.
Are Nordic Spaces' prices competitive?
We carry premium brands at fair retail prices and offer financing through multiple partners to make quality more accessible. While we aren't a discount store, you get long-term value from furniture that holds up over time, plus complimentary design guidance and customization that other retailers charge extra for.
How long do custom orders take?
Most custom orders take 8 to 14 weeks depending on the brand, the configuration, and current manufacturer lead times. Our team will give you an estimated timeline when you place your order and keep you updated.
Do you offer the same selection as Treeforms?
Nordic Spaces and Treeforms share ownership and a building but offer different selections. Treeforms carries a broader range of styles. Nordic Spaces is focused specifically on modern Scandinavian design. If you're not sure which is the right fit, our team can help you explore both.
Do I need an appointment?
No appointment is required. Walk-ins are welcome during showroom hours. If you'd like dedicated time with a designer, we recommend calling ahead so we can schedule it. Find our showroom »

Saying About Us
We had a great experience with Caalee Dilley at Nordic Spaces. We ordered something custom that was a 6 month waiting period and she was so open and communicative through the whole process. I will absolutely be back and requesting her with every new piece we get!
