The laconic interior of the bedroom in the Scandinavian style is especially appropriate for a small apartment. The motto of the Scandinavian designers is a lot of natural light, coziness and ethnic simplicity. How to achieve this now we learn.
Empty space
For starters we refuse heavy drapes on windows and let in the room the sunlight, which the inhabitants of northern latitudes, alas, are not so spoiled. If you are uncomfortable without curtains, hang thin linen or cotton curtains. For them, it is better to choose a white cloth or pastel shades.
A strict veto in any version of Scandinavian design is imposed on bulky cabinets, shapeless "plush" armchairs and lush decor. The layout of the room should be as open as possible, without overshooting the excess partitions.
We paint the walls
The white color reflects the sun's rays much better than the dark, so in the Scandinavian countries the bedroom will not surprise anyone. The inhabitants of the more southern latitudes may seem to be radically differently, to put it mildly, not very comfortable. However, this is not a problem, because the walls can be painted in a different color, the main thing is that it is light enough.
It's a great idea to complement the interior of the bedroom in Scandinavian style with wooden panels.Wall at the head of the bed with wide boards, cover them with varnish so that in the sun they shine like amber, or, conversely, make the effect of a matte tree "gray". By the way, vertically or horizontally arranged panels contrasting the white walls will visually increase the smallroom.
Flooring
The floor must be wooden, or look like it. You can just "revive" the old parquet or buy laminate, the benefit now is the choice of building materials is huge. As mentioned above, the image of the bedroom can be both cheerful-bright and stylish-vintage.
If you decide not to bother with the wooden decor on the walls, then the optimal option for the floor will be a matt, without special shine, natural color of natural wood. In this case, both of the above options are possible and many more improvisations.
Choosing furniture
Huge cabinets, numerous pretentious tables and velor padded stools were ignored, therefore to furnish the interior of the bedroom in the Scandinavian style will be exclusively functional furniture made of wood. This bed can be lacquered with drawers from the vine, white or even black with the same containers for storing bed linen and other sleeping attributes.
The bedside tables can be classic wooden ones on not very high legs. To them, the "grandmother's" chest is perfect as a bedside puffin. If the interior option is more modern - glass shelves above the headboard and laconic small glass table-shelf will be useful.
Extensive wardrobes for clothes will successfully replace the original folding ladders-ladders, racks or cross-bars with hangers in the corner. If desired, they can be masked with curtains in the color of the walls.
We think about lighting and decorating the space
The grandiose crystal chandelier, as well as the gilded wall lamps in the Nordic bedroom, gilded with gilding, are not useful. Lighting the room in the evening is better with a soft, diffused light. For this purpose both simple table lamps with soft pink, cream and cream-yellow lamp shades, and floor lamps from fashion designers will do.
It's appropriate to throw a furry hide on the floor, lay a woolen or cotton ethnic mat. The bed is covered with a blanket with a characteristic northern ornament, if this is not found - it will fit and monophonic, but then decorate it with pillows in bright pillow cases. Carelessly throw a knitted or woolen blanket on the bench near the bed, put a pot on the windowsill with a living plant - and the bedroom interior in Scandinavian style is almost ready.
Arrange accents
Who will spend the night in this bedroom? A man or a woman, maybe a married couple or a child? Hang colorful colorful pictures of whales, smiling tooth-whipping whales, polar bears, picturesque northern landscapes and views of the ancient quarters of the northern capitals. Make a great collage of the best photos with friends and loved ones and decorate the wall around the mirror.
Northern people believe in mystical underground and forest inhabitants. A woman can be placed on the shelves of cute multi-colored elves from wood, porcelain or amber. It is not superstitious for the representatives of the strong half of mankind to decorate their bedroom with differently hardened trolls made of ordinary granite, marble, jasper or even malachite.
Funny figures can be placed not only on the shelves - very Scandinavian will look sitting in the corner of the room a little elf or troll.
