Greetings! I trust your weekend was as unremarkable as a sloth's slumber? Were you involved in anything amusing during that time? We embarked on a car journey to the Blekinge archipelago for some adventure.

Scandinavian-styled London retreat by Cate St Hill

In the heart of a modern home, a distinctive Scandinavian style takes centre stage. The aesthetic, characterised by a subtle colour palette and minimalist design, is beautifully encapsulated in this space.

The heart of the home is adorned with essential pieces from renowned Scandinavian designers. The Hay J104 chair, Muuto platform tray, Stelton coffee jug, Teema mugs, Sinnerlig pendant, Vento sofa, and Menu String lounge chair all contribute to the minimalist yet inviting atmosphere.

IKEA Kitchen cabinets, with their functional design, seamlessly blend into the overall aesthetic, providing a practical yet stylish foundation for the space.

The photography capturing this Scandinavian haven is the work of Cate St Hill, who has beautifully captured the serene and calming ambience of the home.

The colour palette, dominated by blackened and grey tones, is complemented by pops of white, creating a harmonious and soothing environment. Fired Earth tiles, with their earthy hues, add a touch of warmth to the cool tones.

The home's garden, with its lush greenery and thoughtful landscaping, presents a lovely oasis, extending the Scandinavian aesthetic outdoors. A Mountain ABC print, hanging on the wall, adds a playful touch to the otherwise minimalist decor.

The style of this home is associated with the works of designers such as Arne Jacobsen and Alvar Aalto, masters of the Scandinavian design movement. The home's setup is complete with a Samsung TV, providing a modern touch without disrupting the overall minimalist aesthetic.

This home, with its Scandinavian charm and minimalist elegance, is a testament to the enduring appeal of this design style. It invites us to embrace simplicity, functionality, and a touch of nature in our living spaces.
