If you are a follower of design, then you already know that the white-hot trend of Scandinavian design is all over Pinterest, Instagram and every lifestyle blog we know of. We too are smitten with the organic nature, textures and simplicity of Scandinavian design and some of its hallmark elements – white floors, textured accessories such as Moroccan wedding blankets, baskets, soft, fuzzy rugs underfoot and of course neutral upholstery.
We’ve found 5 perfect (and oh-so-affordable) pieces to transform your home to get this look.
White Twill Sofa
Always neutral, this white sofa is the perfect anchor to a room! Add textured throw pillows to complete your look.
CB2 Austin Chair
This simple, clean-lined chair can be used as either an accent chair or a dining chair. Pull it up to any table and you have instant design “cred.”

Plush underfoot and Pinterest-worthy, this rug will have your guests thinking you spent a fortune. It’ll be our secret that you didn’t break the bank.

This simple, classic side table with marble top is the perfect small-space solution for an end table and will never go out of style.
