Decorate your home Scandinavian style
Recreate the pared-back elegance of Nordic interiors.
Choose clean, crisp colours
Contemporary Nordic style combines modern, blonde-wood furniture with a neutral colour palette to create a feeling of space and serenity. Think clean, crisp hues: light shades of greens and blues, off-white and natural light wood tones, like ash, beech and white pine.
The shades of teal used in this open-plan are not only calm and sophisticated; they also reflect the tranquility of the Scandinavian landscape.
Create contrast with tonal colours
For an easy colour scheme, choose two colours that are a couple of shades apart, such as a mid-strength teal for the walls and a darker shade for the trim. These colours can then be echoed throughout the space through accessories to give the room a cohesive feel.
Accessorise with natural textures
Wood in all its forms is a key part of Scandinavian style. Finish this look with modern Scandinavian furniture in blonde wood like birch featuring clean, minimalist lines.
To create warmth and enhance the peaceful atmosphere, add a few textured accessories, such as a sculptural pendant light and earthy ceramics.
