A Scandinavian small living room done the way you want
You don’t need a big room or lots of money to do things your way. Here’s a Scandinavian small living room that’s full of tips, from the sofa-bed to the shelving unit that divides it from a dining area. It’s all about expressing your style and getting more out of your space.
Create a look you love
Textiles like cushions, curtains and rugs aren’t just a great, affordable way to boost your comfort. They’re easy to use to create your own individual decor that expresses your personality, too. Here, lots of bold, black and white patterns – typical in modern Scandinavian style – are mixed and matched. They work together with the bright yellow of the sofa-bed to give you a unique look.
More than just a room divider
This KALLAX shelving unit can do a whole lot of jobs for you. It divides the living area from the dining and gives you lots of storage in these two areas. You can have both easy grab open storage and calming closed storage, like inserts or boxes. Plus, you can show off your favourite photos and ornaments in it.
Move them to where you need them
In a small space, furniture that doesn’t weigh a lot can be very handy. You can move it around to where you want it and put it out of the way when you don’t. Like this SKÅLBODA armchair or the BURVIK side table. Or the BÄSINGEN step stool with handrail that helps you reach things you’ve stored high up.
Sofa? Bed? Both!
This FRIDHULT sofa-bed is great when guests come to visit or those evenings with friends when no one wants the conversation to end. It transforms quickly and easily from sofa to bed and back.
A living room where you’re the boss
Flexible or multi-purpose furniture, like the KALLAX shelving unit, is the key to making the most of the space in this small living area. While bold, black and white patterns and bright yellow accent colours help to create a very personal look with a Scandinavian vibe. Even when you don’t have a lot of money and space, you can still create the home you want.
