As we journey additional into 2025, it’s clear that Scandinavian design remains to be in focus. Nevertheless, it does continues to evolve, gently shifting from its historically pared-back aesthetic to one thing softer, hotter, and extra emotionally supportive. I’d say the Swedes have been at all times good on the farmhouse cozy vibe, with sunken sofas and comfy chairs, but Danish houses at all times felt, at the very least to me, extra strict and quite a bit much less cozy from the houses of their Swedish neighbors. But in the present day, for all of Scandinavian, the main focus appears to be, greater than ever, on comfort-centric areas which suggests rooms that don’t simply look stunning, however that actually really feel good to reside in.
In some ways, we’re transferring past the “much less is extra” philosophy or chairs that look nice however can’t be loved for longer than a fast meal. We would like furnishings that we are able to linger in.. Now, it’s about selecting items with objective and that really feel cozy. It is about asking, Does this make me really feel good? Secure? Calm? Impressed?
