There is no doubt that the floor-to-ceiling windows are the standard standard of Nordic style. When looking out from the window in summer, the eyes are full of poetry and picturesque; in winter, there is a vast expanse of white snow.
The population density of northern Europe is low, everyone is introverted, and the home design is all white and simple, and the style is very suitable.
Wouldn’t it be strange if lively personality northeastern people in our country had such a cold style of painting at home?
Stepping into many Nordic homes, you will find that they often use simple white and light Morandi as the main color, and then use brightly colored carpets, sofa pillows, decorative paintings, plants, small ornaments, etc. as details to embellish the house. Added the element of enthusiasm, simplicity without losing individuality.
Take the picture below as an example, the gray sofa + the wood-colored floor + the four-white floor, creating an unobtrusive but comfortable background color; so the texture of the rubber powder pillow and the bright yellow small coffee table are naturally revealed.
Preference for log furniture
Although the land is poor in the Nordic countries, forest coverage is high, especially Sweden and Finland.
Pieces of trees are cut down to be pure natural and no added authentic logs, so the Nordic people use local materials, and there are a lot of log furniture in the interior decoration.
Light-colored log furniture such as floors, tables, chairs, and cabinets add a lot of natural and warm feeling to the space.
This primitive, natural complex has been integrated into the Nordic culture. Winter is too long and summer is too short. If you want to stay at home for a long winter, you can only bring natural materials home and pretend to have fun in the fields.
As mentioned in the previous article, among the natural factions of Nordic style, wood and weaving (Paper-cord, Rattan, and linen) are commonly used.
Smooth lines are indispensable Nordic elements
Nordic furniture design, while maintaining simplicity, also emphasizes functionality, with smooth and elegant lines, with its own elegant temperament.
Simple lines and sexy arcs are essential elements of Nordic style.
Improving the aesthetic does not mean sacrificing the comfort of the furniture. On the contrary, the design of Nordic furniture is quite ergonomic, but it improves the user experience to varying degrees.
The famous designer Arne Jacobsen’s “7-character chair” is the representative of the smooth line design. It is widely used in the family of Nordic families, and it is also loved by people all over the world. So far, more than 6 million chairs have been sold.
