Scandinavian Minimalism

Often featured in interior design magazines, on Pinterest, on Instagram and even maybe in your home, Scandinavian style remains popular in the worlds of art and design. This style comes from the Scandinavian countries known for their very long dark and snowy winters. Their design philosophy is born from a desire to create homes that are havens of warmth and comfort that provide respite from the cold.

Scandinavian design values comfort and simplicity above all. It is beautiful, minimalist and functional. Neutral shades such as white or gray dominate interior spaces, with the occasional touch of color. Pastel hues such as pale blue or powdery pink complement this style of interior perfectly. Textiles are also very important in Scandinavian interiors. Cushions, curtains, blankets all help to create a cozy and welcoming environment.

Adding artworks to your space will only help to enhance the warm and cozy feeling. If you want to stay within the calm, clean lines of Scandinavian design, go for minimalist or geometric artworks. If you want to keep the color scheme neutral, choose artworks in black, white or gray. To add a pop of color to brighten up your walls, you could opt for a colorful abstract painting.

Decorative objects are also an important element of Scandinavian minimalism. To add a personal touch to a space, consider incorporating vases, candles, lamps and sculptures. If you want to play with textures, place a minimalist metal sculpture on a wooden side table or dresser.
