Scandinavian Style
Scandinavian Style (also known as Nordic style) is known for its three outstanding features: simplicity in design, sophistication in feel, and comfort to use. With this perfect blend, Scandinavian is favored by many interior designers as well as homeowners for its simplicity, cozy, and ventilation for a versatile and comfortable living space.
Scandinavian is derived from the name of a place, namely the Scandinavian peninsula (Nordic region). It is surrounded by the Baltic Sea, the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea of the Atlantic Ocean, and the Barents Sea of the Arctic Ocean.
Influenced and dominated by the following 3 things, it creates a unique Scandinavian interior design, without any mixing styles.

With small apartments, choosing a Nordic style is the wisdom in interior decoration. To ensure optimal space ventilation, fresh air and limit unnecessary cumbersome details, Scandinavian is the perfect solution.
