What is the Scandinavian style
This is a light cozy style with a large number of storage places. It can be minimalistic, or it can be filled with furniture, pillows and plaid.
Suitable for the owners of small apartments who love simplicity. In Scande, even the studio may look spacious.

The Scandinavian style is an ideal solution for those who love functionality. Compact furniture and thoughtful storage systems help in everyday life and do not occupy a lot of space. Scandil is suitable if a small budget is allocated for the repair of the apartment. Furniture, accessories and materials for the interior can be found at democratic prices.

Typical furniture does not allow to do something unique, but there is the opportunity to change the interior by season. Furniture can be moved to a new place, and the curtains, blankets and accessories can be replaced.

It will not work if there are children or animals in the apartment. Pugs and carpets store crumbs and wool. Light upholstered furniture will require constant cleaning. There is no place for luxury in the Scandinavian style. The design is quite simple and typical.
Finishing materials
In this style, laminate, parquet or tile imitating wood are laid on the floor. Often use a bleached tree color. On the walls – light paint or wallpaper. Sometimes the walls are decorated with wooden panels. The ceiling in Scande is made simply white.

Light and color scheme
Rooms in the Scandinavian style should be filled with natural light, so transparent curtains or fabric blinds are used on the windows.
As additional lighting, round paper chandeliers, lamps with tissue floor lamps of various shapes are used. The main thing is that the light is warm. So the room will be more comfortable.
By the way: To make lighting more comfortable, you can use lamps with adjustable brightness.
In Scandil, a light color scheme is used: white, olive and beige tones. It is not necessary to make all the walls the same, you can highlight one zone using a different color.
Important: Black and dark accessories need to be added carefully to the interior.

Furniture
Wooden furniture is suitable for the Scandinavian style, in white or natural wooden. Sofas and armchairs should be functional, lay out, and take place for storage. Instead of massive cabinets, racks and open shelves are used.

By the way: There are many accessories in the Scandinavian style and they need to be stored somewhere. This may not be enough ordinary cabinets, so it is desirable that the room has a pantry and dressing room.

Important: In the Scandrous interior, the furniture should be light, so it will be convenient to move and wipe it
Accessories and decor
If you need to paint the room, use bright accents in the form of blankets, blankets and carpets. The interior is complemented by vases with flowers, candles, decorative utensils and plants.
Decor helps to change the interior by season. For example, on the New Year you can quickly transform the apartment. To do this, just add decorative pillows, fabric rugs or furniture covers. When the holidays pass, the decor is easy to change for the new season. So the interior will always be fresh.
Scandinavian style living room
In this design, the living room was combined with the kitchen, and the space was divided into zones with furniture. In the central part of the room, a hanging glass chandelier was installed. She emphasizes the height of the ceilings. So that the room is not too white, pale pink chairs, curtains and pillows were added to the interior.

If the living room is spacious, then soft sofas, chairs, puffs and light tables will look good in it. Live or artificial plants in pots are very welcome.
The TV zone can be left free, added to it shelves or selected with wooden panels. Install racks with various accessories of glass and wood.

Scandinavian kitchen
In the kitchen in the Scandinavian style, open shelves, islands with places for storing things are installed. In Scande, even ordinary cereals and pasta can be made by interior elements if you store the grocery in decorative banks, containers and organizers.
Skandy style is characterized by a metal shell, small -format light tiles, an open hood and sconces above the table and shelves.
If the abundance of things and accessories oppresses, the kitchen can be made in a more restrained style.
In this kitchen, we installed a kitchen set that allows you to hide all accessories due to closed storage systems.

It is better to use the kitchen without complex milling facades. Flat facades without pens make the kitchen minimalistic. In such an interior, a countertop in white or under a tree will look good.
Scandinavian -style bathroom
The bathroom in the Scandinavian style, as a rule, is decorated with small -format tiles. In this interior, a sink, a mirror and a lamp are all rounded.

Here, near the sink, a rack with open shelves for storing things was equipped. With the help of black, interior details were distinguished.

In this embodiment, using small -format tiles and gray porcelain tile, it was possible to divide the bathroom into 2 zones. The shelves for storing things were made in the style of “minimalism” from glass. The lamps near the mirror were refused in favor of hidden backlight. So the interior turned out to be more minimalistic.

Scandinavian -style bedroom
Cosiness in the bedroom can be created using textiles. It is better to lay a carpet with an ornament on the floor. For storage of things and accessories, closed storage systems should be added.

Scandinavian mistakes
In the process of creating an interior, it is important not to lose the authenticity of the style, otherwise it will quickly turn into a “ordinary” repair without Scandinavian comfort and heat.
Multi -level ceiling and backlight
In the Scandinavian style, the simpler the ceiling, the better. Multi -tier ceilings will make repairs more expensive, but will not bring closer to the Scandinavian style.
Instead of diode lighting, you can use track lamps. They can be attached to the wall or ceiling, and the lamps should be turned in different directions. They also have the opportunity to adjust the color and brightness of the glow, as in the backlight.

The backlight is not characteristic of Scandy a style, but if you really want to, it must be done as an addition to another lighting. With the help of diode backlight, you can distinguish the ceiling. In this interior, the floor lamp is complemented by the backlight.

A bulky wardrobe
For example, how is it here:
Instead of a deep and massive wardrobe, it is better to use several shallow sash cabinets with neat milling mills on the facades. A more expensive option is a dressing room or built -in wardrobe.
Bright finish
Sometimes people try too much to diversify the monotonous Scandinavian style. As a result, the interior oversaturated with flowers is obtained.
Conclusions
To get the Scandinavian style, you need to use light colors in the decoration. Thin curtains should be hung on the windows so that natural light penetrates into the room. In the kitchen and in the bathroom, fine tiles should be used to finish. Furniture is better to choose white or wood. The interior should be diluted with color decor and textiles. In the Scandinavian interior, massive cabinets, diode backlight, stucco molding and multi -level ceilings should not be used.
