Scandinavian Decor

Scandinavian decor is much loved all over the world. Known for it's simplicity, beauty & clean lines, it is a simple yet effective decor trend. Black, white & grey are the dominating colours. High ceilings, large windows, ample light are a hallmark of these homes. A little colour is added by a chair , cushion cover or flowers. Here's how to do it!

Think White 
There is no such thing as too much of white when it comes to Scandinavian decor. White walls, white furniture, white linen... It doesn't feel excessive.

Wooden Floors
No carpets please! Bare floors with a rug or kilim thrown in work best.
