A Guide To Scandinavian Interior Design

The latest in fashionable home interiors is the Scandinavian inspired trend, which is perfect for creating light, airy rooms with a sense of luxury and style. Whether you’re looking to completely transform a room, or simply add individual homeware pieces, this is our helpful interior design guide for Nordic design lovers.

Clean, Minimalist Style

The elements of Scandinavian style encompass minimalist style with unique pieces to make the home look and feel luxurious without the noise of extra homeware accessories and furniture. A typical colour palette evolves around the cool, monochrome tones of black, white, cream and grey which make for a relaxing atmosphere, perfect for the living room and bedroom. If you seek an injection of colour, block colours and geometric designs, which feature petrol blue, dusky pink and dark red shades, work well to fill blank spaces, such as shelves and walls. Furniture featuring ash wood and steel work best to help create a clean interior look, whilst extra accessories such as delicate wall prints in white or black picture frames and succulent plants offer an intriguing, fresh finish.

Scandinavian Inspired Pieces

At Black By Design we have some excellent pieces to help expertly mould your home interior dreams the Nordic way. Make a statement with furniture that will bring direction to the interior design of a room, or add select pieces that can really transform spaces without too much commitment.
