Stunning dwellings owned by Scandinavian artists and designers showcased
My Scandinavian Home, a popular blog launched in November 2011, has recently shared eight beautiful homes belonging to Scandinavian creatives. These homes, each unique in their own way, epitomise the essence of Nordic living with their light-filled interiors, natural materials, and inviting atmospheres.
The first home on the list is a light Swedish villa in Gamla Enskede, Stockholm. With a pretty façade, airy entrance, and large open-plan rooms, this villa features traditional tiled masonry fireplaces, high ceilings, and a bright dining nook. Decorated in white, grey, and green, it offers a fresh, blank canvas perfect for personal touches and entertaining.
Next is a vibrant Danish summerhouse in Lammefjorden, Zealand, Denmark. The home, owned by Danish creatives, blends bold hues, quirky shapes, and cheerful patterns with calm Scandinavian aesthetics. The playful and colorful interior is complemented by unique vintage floor lamps, creating an inviting atmosphere.
The cosy Stockholm Apartment by Terez Persson is another home featured on the blog. This minimalist and cosy space is filled with carefully selected pieces like a rattan chair, unique art, and modern lighting. The apartment captures a serene oasis feel perfect for enjoying summer showers indoors.
The Swedish West Coast Retreat, although not described in full detail, is mentioned as part of a collection of cosy Swedish homes, implying a blend of traditional coastal charm with practical Scandinavian design.
Another example of classic Swedish hygge is a cosy Swedish cottage with beams and a fireplace. This cottage features exposed beams and a fireplace, ideal for warmth and comfort, and fits well with the Scandinavian preference for natural textures and a cozy atmosphere.
A dreamy Swedish summer home by the water is located in a sheltered bay just 15 minutes from town. This cottage blends traditional looks with an industrial touch, creating a relaxed and personal space by the water. Its cheerful yellow exterior stands out against the more common red cottages, with inviting outdoor spaces perfect for relaxation and entertaining.
The blog also highlights five beautiful Danish country homes full of bright and beautiful interiors, reflecting the creativity and joyful aesthetic of Danish design.
Additional Swedish homes from the archives are regularly featured on the blog, showcasing the diverse beauty of Scandinavian living spaces, from urban apartments to rural retreats, all capturing the unique blend of simplicity, warmth, and style inherent to the region.
Among the homes featured are Henning Koppel's home by the sea, the home of Swedish photographer Anna Malmberg (located in the South of France), and the home of Marie Storaash (a Norwegian home, location unspecified). Notably, Mikala Brunsvig's home underwent before and after makeovers, and her home includes outdoor spaces, city apartments, and country homes.
Lastly, Kajsa Hagelin's home is featured in the blog post, although its location remains unspecified. Mark's home, a Danish home, and Mie Olise Kjærgaard's cosy cabin, location unspecified, are also part of the eight homes showcased on the blog.
