You've always been a night owl.

But 51 straight days without a sunrise? Uh, no thanks.

Reschedule that trip to Finland and shimmy over to FinnStyle, the local Finnish outpost that has now nearly doubled in size at its new location.

Picture Marimekko patterns, Iittala glass, Kalevala jewelry, Tonfisk housewares, Aarikka glasses and many other designer names that we can't pronounce. Everything -- yes, even the towels, bed linens, flatware, and pot holders -- has that sleek, modern Scandinavian look.

The new location, conveniently close to downtown and in the same building as the Designer Marketplace.

Because when it comes to being design-forward, you wouldn't want to be kept in the dark.

FinnStyle, 160 Glenwood Av, Mpls, 612-333-2127.
