For simple style that will enhance the brightness of any space, you can’t go past Scandinavian style. Scandi focuses on simplicity, minimalism and functionality ensuring spaces are well used and limit clutter. Whites, greys, black and browns are frequently used to create a clean and calming look. Pops of colours such as dusty pinks and rich sea greens can be used for added accents while walls are kept neutral to allow furniture and art to stand out.
One of the main pillars of the design is the style of Scandinavian flooring. The key to choosing the right Scandi style flooring is in its minimalism, allowing it to flow seamlessly between spaces. By choosing the right style, you can create a natural and elegant foundation to your minimalist space.
Discover Scandinavian floors to suit your style
Natural wood flooring is a popular option when it comes to creating a Scandi look, with many styles available that suit the aesthetic. Both durable and easy to clean, your Scandi floor will look great for years to come.
Scandi style flooring is traditionally hardwood in its natural state or can often be painted white or have a whitewash effect for a spacious atmosphere that invites more light. Fortuna Oak or Stirling Oak in our Chesterfield collection, along with Silver Oak or Chardonnay Oak in the Kingswood 1.5 range meet the Scandi flooring criteria.
Some other elements to consider when it comes to Scandi design include:
-
Wood is often used throughout furniture items such as dining and coffee tables with highlights of metallic, copper and brass pieces to add shine to a room.
-
Clean lines along with smooth and round edges are best when looking for sofas and chairs.
-
Living elements are important so think fresh flowers which add both colour and beauty.
-
Last but not least, decorative items including ceramic cases, artwork and cushions featuring geometric patterns bring subtle texture to the home.
