Four Ways To Embrace Scandinavian Style In Your Home

Four Ways To Embrace Scandinavian Style In Your Home

Scandinavian interior design originates from Nordic roots. This style is elegant and sophisticated, yet minimal. It is inspired by the traditional Scandinavian style, but has a more of a contemporary feel.

This style uses a blend of natural textures and extremely soft hues for an overall simplistic look. Using natural light woods with white walls can feel cold, however by pairing this up with pastel fabric accessories and pops of natural colours, this can turn into a warm and inviting space. Using straight lines and muted colours, along with large plants, it can be a very functional and spacious layout. The use of natural light, simple furniture and wooden floors can pull this whole look together.

Our Homeware Buyer Ciara picked out some of her favourite pieces in store showing you how to achieve this Scandinavian Style.

 

The Centrepiece

Add a touch of luxury with this 100% Cotton Duvet Set from the Linen Yard. The perfect Scandi-style centrepiece which embraces the bright whites. The texture on this duvet cover with matching pillows evokes a calming and natural sense into your bedroom.

Co-Ordination is Key

Introduce some print into your space with these black and white geometric print accessories from Hickeys. The monochrome cushion and matching throw will tie in with the colour scheme, and bring some patterns to this otherwise muted palette. An added bonus is that both are 100% cotton for the ultimate comfort!

Contrasting Colours

Add some lightness to the room with our Country Club White Curtains. These are a great option to have some privacy, while allowing sufficient light through for a fresh look. Adding to the monochromatic look, this slate artwork from Amilie Designs is the perfect addition to your bedroom wall!

Earthy Essentials

Invite the outdoors in, with this must-have decór. These earthy and natural accessories perfectly compliment your Scandi-style choices to add that vital finishing touch.
