'Scandinavian design is timelessly chic. Introduce elements of Scandi style into your home for interiors that are both practical and pretty. Watch presenters Laura Crombie and Anna Morley\'s guide and check out out top tips for nailing Scandinavian design in your home below: The Scandinavians are really clever at counter-balancing the hard surfaces in their homes (think wood flooring rather than carpet, for example) by adding layers of fabrics to their schemes. Instead of going for lots of matching accessories, build up a collection of non-coordinating throws will add visual interest with their different textures and colours. Scandi design schemes tend to err on the side of cool colours... but which is best for your room? Here\'s a quick rule: east- and north-facing rooms will look better with warmer shades (think cream rather than white, pale pink rather than blue), while west- or south-facing rooms can take cooler colours, too, such as blue or grey. The Scandis are the masters of accessorising if you ask us (how on earth would we survive without Ikea?), so why not follow suit to complete the look? The key is to mix and match old and new, curio and run-of-the-mill. Just keep the colour palette simple. When the days are short and the nights long, you have to make the most of what little sunlight there is. Modern Scandinavian homes are often designed to face the sun, with large windows capturing the best of the day\'s light. Replicate the look by using lots of pale colours.
