Long, dark winters are part of the Scandinavian living. Those who spent some holidays in Finland or Norway noticed the clean white backgrounds that function as canvases for exhibitions of vintage mirrors, original chairs, colorful pillows, romantic curtains and original drawers. What I love about their style of decorating is the eclectic mix of items: you can combine the stove grandma keeps at the country house with a glass open bar and a king size painting in one single room. Nobody would question their relevance or necessity for the design approach. To make it simple, several things should be taken into consideration when decorating according to Scandinavian principles: a less is more philosophy changes the whole look , colorful patterns make the interior stand out and vintage items let art breathe inside.
