Industrial inspiration lamp Jarpen, Hübsch

Lovers of Nordic decoration are also lovers of neutral tones and cosy and simple spaces. Most Scandinavian apartments match their colour combinations in white, black and grey, in the choice of natural wood furniture... And it is incredible how with the same tools, with the same combinations and even with the same decorative pieces, we can achieve different and personal homes.

This selection of images that I bring you today can perfectly be a user manual to decorate our home in the Scandinavian style, we see how to achieve a functional and warm atmosphere from a blank canvas and how each room can become unique and the protagonist of our home.

Characteristic elements of Nordic decoration, either because they are typical in the interiors of the Scandinavian countries or because at a commercial level they have become leaders and have gone around the world to sneak into thousands of family homes.

A basic guide to a Nordic home

White on black and vice versa

One of the most successful combinations when creating Nordic spaces is to start from white and include accessories in gray tones. Valid for any room and especially the bedroom, where we will achieve a relaxed and serene atmosphere with this chromatic range. But another very valid option is just the opposite, using a range of gray, even black, as a base and decorating on it with light tones, a trend increasingly used to create contrasts.

Books and paintings on the ground

One of the most fashionable trends, placing towers of magazines on the stage, without the need for shelves or bookcases, in fact, a tower of magazines can also become a bedside table. And paintings, why hang them on the wall if we can leave them on the floor leaning against the wall?

The icon of Nordic decoration: Eames replica chair

A home is not totally Nordic if it does not have at least one of these Eames replicas, whether it is the classic one in white, black or other more daring colors, whether in its armchair or rocker version.

Green plants for a fresh touch

Nordic environments always have plants that bring freshness to any room.

Wood to create warmth and comfort

Wood in its natural version gives a rustic air to any home and rustic spaces are always related to rest, family, home... That is why it is important to take it into account in our home, to achieve a totally familiar and cozy atmosphere.
