Texture is one of the most important parts of Scandi home decor, specifically natural textures in neutral tones. It’s the reason why Scandinavian homes look so effortlessly cosy and inviting. Today’s home tour is all about a warm Scandi home which is bursting with texture.
This home is decorated in soft neutrals throughout with plenty of black accents which really helps the neutral tones stand out. It has all the key elements of Scandi home decor like feature lighting, lots of plants, lots of wood and of course lots of texture.
There is so much to love about this cozy living room but it’s the use of different textures that makes it extra special. Firstly you have that expanse of shag pile that makes this room feel instantly warm and inviting. Then you have so many other textures thrown in – things like the rustic, earthy planters, the linen and wood daybed, the metal coffee table and so much more.
Like the rest of this home, this living room has been decorated in soft neutrals. The pale beige walls work really with with the wooden floors and the black accents add interest and compliment the beige really well. When it comes to furniture, I love how so many Scandi homes mix Ikea pieces with more expensive pieces – the sofa is a very popular and affordable Ikea sofa which has been upgraded with a custom linen cover. The daybed is a practical and beautiful piece of furniture which works so well in this room. I also love the accent chair which looks great in this space.
As you can see the living room opens out to a small dining room. Once again you have lots of texture in this space and the colours are very similar to the living space. This creates a cohesive look between the two rooms but yet the dining space is a complete room.
Scandi bedrooms tend to be simply decorated with just enough stuff to create interest while still being practical and this bedroom is no different. The neutral tones and beige walls have been continued in this room, once again mixed with black accents. There’s lots of natural textures here too which is what makes this bedroom feel so cosy. You’ve got a shaggy rug, lots of linen, cork, marble, wood and more. And of course you’ve got the feature lighting which again is a key part of Scandi home decor.
Finally you have the second bedroom in this home which is a kids room. The neutral grey-green walls in this room work well with the pale blush accents and all the light wood furniture. The abundance of texture is once again key to making this room feel so cozy.
This Scandi home has lots to love about it but it’s definitely that cozy living room that first wowed me in this home. From the neutral colours to the furniture to all the texture, the living room has everything you need to create a warm space that is both stylish and practical.
