Why It Works
Scandinavian design excels in living rooms by balancing warmth with simplicity. Light wood floors and white walls maximize natural light, while cozy textiles like sheepskin throws and knit cushions prevent the space from feeling sterile. The hygge philosophy emphasizes comfort and togetherness, making the living room a natural gathering point.
