The Scandinavian colour palette is dominated by neutral tones such as whites, greys, and muted pastels. These understated shades set the scene for the natural light to easily bounce off surfaces and create an airy ambiance.  Neutral colours also contribute to the overall calming and soothing effect of Scandinavian homes, making them ideal  for people seeking to create a calming atmosphere in their living spaces. In addition to that, earthy tones of terracotta and shades of brown paired with sage, olive, and black are present in Scandinavian homes’ furnishings, walls, and decor accessories to break the monotony of neutral shades and add a touch of nature inside.
