These five Scandinavian style home interiors are filled with fresh and funky decor to give living spaces an uplifting boost. If you’re a minimalist, perhaps you should turn away now as these are a bustling set of homes, busy with life and all that comes along with it. See how to arrange life’s bits and bobs in easy access storage cubbies, curate gallery walls and treasure filled tabletops, and put well used items out for all to see on open shelving units. Find a mini colour explosion within a black & white interior, a polished green-grey & yellow abode, gold trimmed botanical decor, earthy bronze undertones, and a small home packing a lot of Scandi punch.
This black and white Scandinavian living room is home to a mini colour explosion, where all of the colour is brought into the room via personal belongings and small removable decor items such as throws and scatter cushions. All of the larger and more permanent items in the room follow a black, white, grey and wood tone rule, which means that it’s easy to switch out the colour if desired.

A black and white kid’s play mat lies beneath the coffee table in the lounge to make this a truly family friendly space where the kids are free to relax too. The round edged coffee table also makes this a safe play space where little heads won’t be bumped on sharp corners. And what a unique ceiling fan!
