Trend Watch: Uplifting Scandi Style

Discrete, yet opulent…Stockholm inspired home living has defiantly made its mark across interiors.

As we dive deeper into the colder months, brands have been releasing a new dimension of Scandi-style genius. An array of muted colour pops has added brightness to interior design that uplifts any mood on these grey chilly days…

SIMPLE SWASHES

Let’s face it, some jobs can be done on your own! An affordable ‘DIY’ style of decorating has become a popular choice new nesters or those simply wanting to customise their space without spending hundreds. Light swashes on wood textures adds a cosy simplicity to any home, especially when using global phenomenon ‘Chalk Paint’. The best part? There’s no need for any priming or sanding and dry time is rapid.

CARE TO PAIR

Black and grey is a no here, so forget everything you knew about winter colour schemes! As we’re seeing faded washes being a popular choice in home decor – simple two colour pairing has also appeared as a top styling trend, offering some warmth to the cool environment without overpowering the home. Also to note: Florals aren’t strictly a spring/summer notion, especially with designs from Linen House’s Winter range. Use a simple colour scheme and bend the ‘rules’ without sacrificing style.

MINIMAL MAGIC

A splash of colour tied to minimal design offers opportunity within changing spaces. Perfect for those who appreciate the subtle way in which one or two key pieces can change the entire feel of a room. ‘Millenial pink’ is only growing stronger as this year’s colour of choice.

SUSTAINABLY STYLED

‘Functional living’ is the core value of Scandinavian living spaces – it’s the answer to small interior spaces that challenges many of us from time to time. 2017’s obsession with Danish philosophy ‘Hygee’ (meaning creating a warm atmosphere), allows us to really enjoy the good things in life, with good people, in a sustainable manner. Take these creative and functional side tables by Sawdust Bureau as a perfect example!
