7 steps to make a Scandinavian bedroom

Scandinavian bedroom furniture

Scandinavian bedroom furniture has specific characteristics. First of all, it has simple and clear minimalist lines. Scandinavian design is the opposite of maximalism. And, it tries to find the golden point where functionality, simplicity, and innovation are equally important.

---

IKEA is indeed the first company that has made Scandinavian design worldwide known since the 1950s. Moreover, there are many other companies well-known for their Scandinavian style like MUUTO, Marimekko, Normann Copenhagen, Gubi, etc.

---

Moreover, in Scandinavian furniture, we extensively use natural wood or white furniture and metal elements. White nightstands and white dressers are the most popular Scandinavian bedroom decor.

Dominant white

White is the dominant color of the Scandinavian style. White walls, white floors, white furniture, and linen.

---

This white canvas is usually balanced with small portions of neutral colors like gray, black, beige, or pastels. White background and clear lines are matched easily with natural wood elements and details.

---

A bedside table, a chair, or a stool can balance the absence of colors and enhance warmth and comfort.

Combination of different textures

---

The Scandinavian style seems ideal for fall and winter as it usually combines many different warmth textures.

---

Fur and leather are mixed up harmonically with cotton, linen, and hemp, creating layers on beds, sofas, and armchairs.

---

I love sheepskins on armchairs, blankets on beds, and knitted cushions on sofas. They add comfort and luxury to every space. Preferable colors are black and white, gray, neutrals, and pastels.

Minimalist geometric or micro floral patterns

---

Another characteristic of Scandinavian bedroom decor is minimalist geometric motifs or micro floral patterns.

---

So, if we find solid color bedding in white, grey, or other neutral colors, too boring, we can select cool bedding with Scandinavian-inspired designs.

Black and white photography and typography

---

This is the part I love. Quotes and words in simple monochrome posters; monochrome photos of portraits, or street scenes; all create a powerful, discreet wall art gallery.

---

You can combine different sizes and frames and, instead of hanging them, you can place them on a console, or even on the floor.

Scandinavian lighting for bedroom

---

Lighting is an essential element of bedroom decoration.

---

And, Scandinavian-inspired lighting has a subtle design and we usually find it in brass, white, or black color. It is also made of metal, wood, or even paper.

---

So, we can choose between ceiling lamps, sconces, or floor lamps.

Plants and Scandi-inspired decor

---

Handmade decorative items, plants in minimal pots, candles, and a harmonious mixing of eclectic items. The Scandinavian style always maintains few things but to reveal your taste.

---

Geometric shapes, simple lines, neutral shades, resistant plants with big green leaves, or unconventional cacti, are among the choices for a unique Nordic bedroom.

---

Just stay plain and clean-cut!
