A cozy dining room with a Scandi café atmosphere

Get that ‘hygge’ feeling at home with a dining room that feels just like a Scandinavian café. It features a minimal white and black colour palette, light-coloured wood and homey details. Fun café accents, a blackboard wall and multiple dining tables complete the look. No need to venture out to a café when you have one right at home.

Light wood combined with white and black details

In this room, we created a minimal yet cozy Scandinavian-style look with a black and white colour palette combined with the warmth of wood. We used tables and chairs in blond wood (there are two tables in this space for a café-like feel) and a sleek, black cart that’s great for storing tableware and snacks.

Create your own café counter

Multiple cabinets put together in this way make for your very own café counter at home. It’s practical storage for everything you need in the dining room, and the surface is great for creating your own coffee and tea set-up with trays, cups, and other things needed for ‘fika’ time.

A creative corner

This dining room is truly a multi-purpose space and the hub of the home. A storage combination with boxes in a corner creates an inspiring station for arts and crafts. The blackboard-painted wall – where you can write the menu of the day – enhances the café theme of the room.

Set the ambience with light and sound

Create a cozy café atmosphere with multiple pendant lamps and music. Way better than sitting in someone else’s café – you get to play DJ and choose which songs to listen to.

Your own Scandi café at home made easy

Multiple tables, a café counter that also holds plenty of storage, light wood and a simple black and white colour palette make up this dining room. The result? A cozy, ‘hyggelig’ café at home, that’s just as pleasurable to be in as your fave café. Maybe even better.
