Swedish roots designer tips

Live well

Spring is a great time to introduce new rituals, whether it’s enjoying healthier foods, through meal prepping and growing vegetables or fresh fitness goals.  Wellness starts within your home by bringing organization, routines and freshness into your space, like plants.

Refresh your textiles

Switch from heavy to lighter curtains and layers, and give your rugs, cushions and bedding a colorful makeover. Let’s welcome an outdoor life inside and live with fresh intensity.

Turn on the lights

Make your sunny day gatherings last all night with stylish outdoor lighting, from string lights to table lamps.  We are loving our solar powered options – you can place them anywhere!

Quick spring refresh

New outdoor cushion covers in bold colors or with a patterned design are an easy, affordable way to freshen your outdoor space for spring. 

Bring the outdoors in

Go green in a big way this spring with plant accessories, from pots and stands to vases and gardening essentials.

Solid wood storage

IVAR shelving units made from beautiful solid pine fit swimmingly with the Swedish roots aesthetic. They’re also modular so you can easily build your own depending on your space. 

Tell your color story with Swedish decor

Put the ruler and rules to one side and let the form free. Create a bold visual vibe in any room with fun Swedish home decor using pops of color and organic patterns. Welcome an outdoor life inside and live with fresh intensity. This coordination pulls together elements of the natural world, intensities and shades of green and natural textures to create the impression of a lush summer’s day (even when inside).

Think of your home as a seasonal reflection of who you are. Spring is a time for rejuvenation and renewal, so try something new. Don't be afraid to take risks, like welcoming textiles in bolder patterns and brighter colors than usual.
