This style works best when architectural elements like walls and doors are white. The furniture is a mix between Scandinavian functionality and simplicity combined with the unconventional and artistic boho style. Scandi Boho is all about how you feel more than the looks. Keep it simple and functional.

Start with a foundation of white and off-white colours with sustainable and natural monochromatic soft textiles, and add light wood furniture, and waved elements like wicker and macrame, and lots of house plants and greenery.

To finish it off and to create a cosy atmosphere, add accessories and textiles, especially woven elements, like linen and cotton. A homemade touch rounds off your perfect Scandi Boho room. 

Your Scandi Boho haven

Make your most private space comfortable, cosy, and functional to enjoy every hour of the day. Natural tones and soft fabrics will help you relax and create a quiet refuge. The combination of closed and open storage offers you the flexibility to organize your space based on your individual needs. Functional lighting on top and on the side of the bed will provide you with the light needed for your daily activities.

Style your home with textiles and accessories

Light and natural colours not only complement the Scandi-Boho style, but they also have a biological and psychological effect, which can also positively impact your health and wellbeing. Psychologically, light can decrease depression scores and even increase cognitive performance such as reaction time and activation. Key Icons in this style are lamps, candles, and plants, that help you to brighten your space and add a natural touch to it.
