14 Scandi Style Furniture Ideas For Your Home

Scandinavian style, often referred to as Scandi style, is known for its simplicity, functionality, and minimalism. It emphasises clean lines, neutral colours, and natural materials. To bring a Scandi feel to your home, you’ll need to choose furniture and decor items that serve a purpose while maintaining a clean and uncluttered look.

If you're looking for Scandi-style furniture ideas for your home, we’ve got plenty of choices for you here at Accessories for the Home. We’ve collated our recommendations so that you can curate the Scandi home of your dreams! 

Scandi Style Seating 

When looking for seating for your Scandi-style home, wooden chairs are a great place to start. Find wooden dining chairs and armchairs with wooden frames to begin the Scandi feel in your space. Choose chairs made from light-coloured woods - birch, oak, and pine are ideal for that Scandi vibe. 

The Laholm Dining Chair is the quintessential Scandi design, offering handcrafted detailing and a clean style in a combination of fine solid oak and veneers, with a smooth finish, curved edges and spindle back.

In your living room, opt for a simple, neutral-coloured sofa in shades of white, beige, or light grey. Choose one with clean lines and a minimalistic design. We love the Swyft Model 02 Linen Three Seater Sofa in Pumice, which is simple and stylish and will fit nicely in any room.   

Scandi Style Tables 

Clean and simple furniture is at the heart of Scandi style, so you’ll want a minimalistic wooden table in a sleek light wood. 

Look for a sturdy wooden dining table - light oak finishes are popular choices. Scandinavian tables often have a functional design with clean lines, so the Laholm Dining Table is a fantastic choice. Inspired by the Scandinavian designs of the 19th century, the handcrafted detailing and clean look tick all the boxes.

The table can be paired with the Laholm Dining Chair or the Laholm Oak Dining Bench for an elegant alternative to traditional dining chairs.

In the sitting room, a wooden coffee table with a simple design works well. You can choose a round or rectangular shape, depending on your preference, although many Scandi-style tables will have slightly rounded edges.

A classic example of a Scandi coffee table is the Malmo Chevron Inlay Solid Oak Coffee Table. The table features a clean design and low profile that fits a contemporary modern living space. The chevron inlay on top of the table provides a subtle, Scandi-inspired detail. 

For a slightly warmer touch to your living room, opt for the Erabar Acacia and Cane Coffee Table. The acacia wood offers a warmer tone, but it still showcases the Scandi style perfectly with the elegant design and functional storage space. 

You can pair this with the matching Erabar Acacia and Cane Side Table or use this as a bedside table in your Scandi-style bedroom. Perfect for storing books and magazines and a practical place for lamps, drinks and decorative items too. The cane detailing adds an extra textural touch to your space and brings a natural feel that only enhances the Scandi vibes. 

Scandi Style Storage 

Scandi interior design is the perfect blend of minimalism and functionality, so storage options should be practical and sleek. Open shelves made of natural wood can be used for displaying decorative items and storing books. It adds an airy and spacious feel to the room, which is essential in a Scandi-style interior.

Opt for cabinets with minimalistic handles and clean lines. White or light-coloured cabinets can blend seamlessly with the Scandi style.

We love the Hubsch Shoji Wide Oak Display Cabinet, as this combines wooden shelves with a glass door to provide the light and airy feel of open shelving with the protection of the doors to help keep things tidied away. Offering plenty of space to display trinkets or store anything from books to clothing, this is an ideal cabinet for bedrooms, dining rooms, entrance halls or lounges to bring the Scandi style without compromising on storage capacity.  

A unit like the Amaya Rattan & Iron Sideboard can work well as a media unit in the living room or as a console table in the entrance to your home. The combination of neutral light wood and natural rattan offers the classic Scandi vibe, while the mixture of cupboards, drawers and an open compartment provides plenty of space for a variety of uses. 

You can continue this style with the Amaya Rattan & Iron 2 Door Cabinet, offering more space to tuck away items behind the rattan doors. With naturally light rattan framed by neutral light wood, it’s easy to see the Scandi inspiration behind the design. It is a versatile cabinet that can find a home in any room in your house to store anything and everything, from bedding to crockery! 

Scandi Bedroom Furniture

You want your Scandi bedroom to look and feel light and natural. Make use of light wood and rattan details to curate an airy space to relax in. 

The Saharsa Cane & Mango Wood Bed is an ideal choice for your sleep space. The handwoven cane detailing adds character and an airy feel to the sturdy mango wood frame, allowing you to sleep in Scandi style. 

Every bedroom needs a stylish wardrobe to store clothes and personal items in. For a Scandi bedroom, the ​​Bloomingville Mariana Pine And Rattan Wardrobe is our pick. It adds an air of Scandi simplicity to your space with stunning weaved panel doors and sides on a pine frame. With a clothes rail and shelving inside, it offers a storage solution for your bedroom necessities.

Minimalistic floor lamps with fabric or paper shades can add a warm, cosy glow to your room. The Isla Natural & Black Bamboo Floor Lamp makes for a striking Scandi-inspired addition to your home. It has simple lines and an airy shade with a slightly geometric pattern woven into the bamboo shade. 

Mirrors can draw in extra light to your space, making the room look bigger and brighter.
