Create a Scandinavian atmosphere
To create a truly Scandinavian atmosphere, there are a few rules to consider.
The first thing to know is that despite the clean, minimalist look that characterizes the Scandinavian style, it exudes a warm ambiance. Living in very cold environments and climates, the inhabitants of Scandinavian countries have designed their interiors to recreate the warmth they lack outdoors. Favor wooden floors or coverings rather than cold tiles. The wood?s material and color echo the cozy interiors of Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish living rooms and immediately create a comfortable, very pleasant atmosphere.
For décor accessories and furniture, wood is the most appropriate. However, other materials like fabric will reinforce the Scandinavian character of the room. This is the case for the Scandinavian chair as well as retro armchairs and sofas.
Colors should remain within the same palette?beige, brown, white?but warm, vibrant shades like bright red or orange tones add style and character to the room.
And the element not to neglect: light. For a Scandinavian ambiance, nothing beats soft yet sufficiently bright lighting. To achieve this, browse the different models of Scandinavian lamps with designer shapes and diffused light. You?re sure to find the lighting that will elevate your interior and showcase your Scandinavian style and décor.
