A casual Scandinavian dining room for you and friends
This is a dining room in typical Scandinavian style – bright, minimalist, functional and fresh. It’s perfect for a coffee on your own or a relaxed meal with friends – and it’s easy to change between the two. If you like natural materials, a simple colour palette and a touch of art, you’ll find lots of inspiration here.
A fresh, bright look that sets the style
The simple, timeless table and chairs with their light-stained wood help create the Scandinavian style of the room. The ambience is minimalist but the art on the wall adds a playful touch. Here’s a perfect spot to take your time enjoying a coffee, unwinding with family or friends or doing a hobby that you love.
Modern upgrades to golden-age design
This table and the chairs draw a lot of inspiration from the 1950s and 60s, which was a golden age of Scandinavian design. It shows in their light-stained wood and soft, simple shapes, for example. Of course, things like comfort have got an upgrade now to suit today’s lifestyles. They’ll make you want to linger over meals for hours, and enjoy them in your home for years.
A table that welcomes your friends
Friends visiting? The table extends to sit six people and the trolley – white to match the Scandinavian vibe – makes it easy to have what you need within reach. The table is set in a simple, casual but decorative way that matches the style of the room, helping to make the meal a treat for the eyes, too.
Two ways to use art
Art plays a big role in the personality of this room. Here, a gallery wall of prints, with strong, simple motifs in identical white frames, gives a calm, minimalist effect. And a picture of a scene from nature harmonises with the natural vibe of the floor cushions, tables and rug.
Why not cut the clutter in style?
Two clutter-busting shelving units provide lots of space to store things, like tableware or board games for after dinner fun with friends. Each has two adjustable shelves, so you can customise them to suit your needs. They’re also great for showing off favourite objects, while the boxes and baskets can hold small stuff or things you don’t want to display. The simple white units and the fresh, bright looks of the boxes and baskets strengthen the Scandinavian style.
A Scandinavian-style dining room that’s a joy to share
Light-stained wood, a simple colour scheme and a relaxed minimalism are at the centre of this room. It’s very practical, with the extendable table seating up to six people. With green plants boosting the fresh feeling and art on the walls, here’s a place for meals and good company any time of the day.
