Scandinavian style is a very popular idea among homeowners and designers, it’s light-filled, airy and fresh, organic and relaxed. You may find a lot of Scandinavian living rooms, kitchens and other spaces but kids’ spaces and roundups with them are frequent. We decided to correct this mistake and give you a dose of inspiration with these beautiful Scandinavian nurseries.
Color Schemes
White, black, grey, pastels are a traditional color scheme for a Scandinavian space. White, warm off-white or even a light grey or cream creates the perfect background for mixing textures and patterns. Mixing and matching different light neutrals works well too – for example, pairing white with natural canvas and light woods. Using black and white in your nursery is also a good way to create a high contrast, visually stimulating space for your child. It is well known that babies respond well to simple, high contrast patterns, providing visual stimulation and promoting their development by keeping them captivated and engaged. Still, I’d highly recommend to use some pastels here and there and to make your room look softer and more welcoming as it’s a kid’s space.

Patterns And Textures
Add depth and variety to the monochrome room with different textures such as a plush white rug, painted furniture, and pillows with white-accented patterns, wood and other materials you like and consider appropriate for your baby’s space. Use a variety of patterns for added interest – for example, a fun, illustrative wallpaper pattern, triangular patterns in the rug, and circular patterns in the laundry bag.

Furniture
Furniture for a Scandi nursery is to be clean and simple, these are main features of modern design. Choose furniture that is not ornate or complex but rather sleek and linear, clean and geometric lines are the best choice. Storage units can double as decor – for example, woven baskets can double as toy storage, as can ottomans, under-bed boxes, etc. When purchasing toys, keep in mind that they will be part of the design and thus will fit better if they are complementary to the space.
