Scandinavian home decor style strikes a near-perfect balance between comfort and minimalism\u2014both hallmarks of Scandinavian design. As one of the interior design<\/a> styles that shaped (and grew with) the 20th century, some of its features also resemble modernism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But before all that, Scandinavian interior design<\/a> begins in homes built to carry Nordic people through long, dim seasons. You see it in how the light is treated, or in the abundance of pale wood, which isn\u2019t just a visual choice. Even Scandinavian wall decor is specific. The layout logic prevents the space from absorbing too much shadow, as too many objects dull the light\u2019s movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
