Walls

First, the walls are plastered, then covered with paint. You already realized that the paint should be white. Keep in mind that in the interior the paint looks different than in the store. The walls should look relief. This can be achieved thanks to rude and careless strokes. Wallpaper is rarely used. They cover the wall on which you need to concentrate attention. Shades should be neutral, if there is a drawing, then these are usually plant ornaments. Additionally, a brick or tree can be used in the wall decor.

Floor

Laminate is usually used. It looks good enough and looks good. Less commonly, floors are covered with parquet, which is covered with one layer of paint. This is much more expensive. It should be remembered that Scandinavians prefer color close to pine. But you can safely forget about red. Brown will be well combined with white walls, add heat and comfort.
A good complement will be a soft carpet or the skin of an animal. In the bathroom and in the kitchen, floors are covered with tiles. Preference is given to a chess pattern. Often use colors such as black, blue, purple.

Furniture and textiles

Ikea - these are the brightest samples of furniture in the Scandinavian style. They are budgetary, original, simple, but, at the same time, sometimes have non -standard forms. Remember the rule that the furniture should be made of natural wood. No chipboard! This is unacceptable in such an interior. Furniture should not have bulky decor elements. Marble looks good for countertops, glass in coffee tables, metal in the decor of racks and cabinets. As for textiles, here the Scandinavians do not change their rules. Naturalness! Len, cotton, wool.

Rolled curtains will look concise. To add heat to the room, you can use such decor elements as pillows. But with their number, the main thing is not to overdo it. They should be bright enough, can have an original shape. Very often used tapestry for pillow decor or wool.
