A Danish Apartment : Decor Styles

a great article which typifies Danish (or rather Scandinavian decor style).  Stripped wooden floors, soft grey-blue tones, simple furniture, in fact just about simple everything, and then.... an unexpected spot of vibrant colour!

 

simple furniture and accessories

white bed linen, soft touches of colour - note the grey tones of the chair

kitchen eatery in whites

modernist touches

vibrant crockery - just to liven things up a bit!

the simplest of artwork - focus of colour or texture not loads of detail. (also see first picture)

Decadent Christmas Decor

This has to be the epitome of fun ... having enough funds (and space I guess) to be able to redo your living areas entirely to suit the theme of the season - in this case a "gold" christmas "revamp"!!!  

Anyway, let's enjoy the pictures - they are great inspiration anyway, and do what we can with what we have

this one is my favorite - this table setting is so simple and yet so effective - what makes it is the detail.  Note the frill on the over long tabelcoth ......
