The Scandinavian Home
The Scandinavian Home: Explore the beauty of Scandinavian style in the city and country | Niki Brantmark
3 posts
Discover classic and contemporary Scandinavian style. Scandinavia is famous for its distinctive style: homes are pared-back and simple, and form and function are combined to create aesthetically pleasing and practical interiors. Scandinavians are inspired by light, having an abundance of it in summer but so little of it in winter, and house designs tend to maximize the amount of natural light that enters the home, and allow the inhabitants to make the most of outdoor life during the summer. Similarly, nature and the weather are major influences: homes are made warm and cozy for the freezing winter months—not just literally with log burners, but also through incorporating wood and natural materials. The Scandinavian Home showcases a wide range of these beautiful homes. The first chapter, City Dwellings, features sharp, modern apartments and smart townhouses. Country Homes shows the Scandinavian take on country style with laid-back, bohemian homes. Finally, the Summer and Winter Retreats include coastal cottages, an allotment house, and log cabins.

Today's #cleaningbookstack was an emergency solution when nelly decided to eat the scented geranium that I took indoors over the winter (lots of vomiting ensued.) A foot-tall box and seven? books. The top one I bought at IKEA only to realize it doesn't have an ISBN, which means I can't log it anywhere, so it's a planter holder as a part of my revenge scheme (I've also refused to read it). Now the plant can go outside and I'll reorg the books.
