Unless you are a fan of pop art, preferences have mainly gone, in recent years, towards sober decorations with clean lines such as the Scandinavian atmosphere for example. For you, I have deciphered this style that comes directly from Sweden.
Whether on the internet or in decoration magazines, there have been a lot of articles on the Scandinavian style lately. We even talk about it regularly on television. Apparently, this Nordic atmosphere is now causing a sensation among the French and is increasingly found in interiors. The proof, my neighbor has just completely redecorated her living room and guess what? She opted for this atmosphere.
Moreover, many real estate agencies offering furnished apartments for rent have also fallen for this style. Difficult for me then not to devote an article to it in my blog. Moreover, apart from being trendy, I find this atmosphere both contemporary and elegant in its simplicity. And as in the next few weeks I plan to refresh the decoration of my living room a little, I would like to add some little Scandinavian touches. Indeed, since my windows and shutters are seriously starting to wear out, I will soon be swapping them for aluminum models. This material would suit this style perfectly. But what is the Scandinavian atmosphere?
Focusing above all on sobriety, this style of decoration emphasizes above all the cocooning spirit of our homes and invites itself as much in living rooms, places of rest as in bathrooms, without forgetting outdoor spaces.
If you are repainting your living room or your living room, it is the occasion or never to breathe a small modern and contemporary Nordic atmosphere in your interior. To do this, paint your walls and ceilings entirely white. In total look, white brings a lot of brightness to a room. However, in case this color is too cold for you, like me, introduce, in terms of decoration, black or anthracite accessories.
My lights, my suspensions and my curtain rods are thus beautifully matched with my sofa and my leather poufs of the same color. Otherwise, for a cozy interior, you can also opt for pastel shades. Cushions, curtains, plaids, sofa covers... There is only the embarrassment of choice. Otherwise, just like my neighbour, you can simply cover a section of the wall in your room with tartan wallpaper, but be careful, always in pastel tones.
Finally, one of the cornerstones of Nordic decoration is above all wood, mainly in light tones. Reminiscent of nature, this material must be omnipresent. For flooring, choose parquet, especially species that have still preserved their natural colors. The same will also be true for the furniture. In short, the watchwords are:wood, more wood and always wood. To get an idea of the design of furniture that goes with this style, go to Hansen and Jacobson .
