[ black and white and pretty all over ]

i'M ALWAYS drawn to gorgeous white Scandinavian spaces. No one seems to do white walls and pale floors better and I'd love to have them in my next home...


Even though they're white, these rooms still feel so comfy and welcoming. I love that most of the accessories are white or silver and the only colour is from hits of black and the textiles so switching things up is easy. How do you feel about these spaces ~ too much white or just right?

    There seems to be just enough of a hint of pattern & texture going on to make it still feel cozy. Love the rug in the middle photo!

    I really like white - I think it lets the other details in a space stand out more.

    Hi Lisa, like you I am drawn to Scandinavian interiors. It amazes me that in a climate so cold they choose white to decorate with.
    Gradually my home has become lighter and whiter, but I find that a little colour always sneaks in in one form or another.

    These photos are wonderful and I daresay these scandinavian homes are toasty inside! Love Linda x
