Furniture
Furniture plays a key role in the Nordic style and the chair is the Scandinavian piece of furniture par excellence. It will give character to the room thanks to its particular style. Indeed, it is generally designed with rounded shapes and features light and neutral tones that give it that modern cozy effect without overwhelming the space.
Light
Bet on lighting for an even brighter interior! Geometric suspensions, lamps, spotlights... they are ideal to complete your Scandinavian decoration, especially if you do not have a very bright interior. These elements will bring relief and light to the room without taking away from it the refined aspect, specific to the Nordic style. Finally, to preserve natural lighting, think about sheers rather than curtains. They will allow daylight to enter while keeping this feeling of cocoon and intimacy.

Light woods such as rattan, fir, pine, oak or even birch blend perfectly with light colors and will soften your room to make it warm. Combine it with soft textiles such as wool, suede and cotton to make your interior a cozy nest.
