From Oslo's bold hues to Denmark's coastal calm: A designer's striking shift
From a home on the coast of West Denmark on Tuesday to the Norwegian capital today, there's no denying it hasn't been a very Scandinavian week here on the blog. While the coastal property was set among the dunes and awash with soothing pale blues, this beautiful light-filled flat in Old Oslo is flooded with golden sunshine that highlights touches of red, burgundy, yellow - and even light blue (which appears to be a favourite right now!).
The flat belongs to Juni Halseth Strenberg, who recently moved from this vibrant home. Granted, the renovation of her new home is still a work in progress, but I love seeing how her furniture has settled right in.
There are many things I love about Juni's unique style, but what really caught my eye were the bedrooms. They are narrow, yes, but they make a true statement, with the ceilings becoming a design feature in themselves, while also helping to visually bring down the height of the rooms. I also love the patterned window dressings! And of course, there's that spotty sofa too!
Ready to take a look? Velkommen inn!
I thought you might be curious about some of the colour codes in the bedroom, so here they are:
- Single bedroom Window frame and skirting boards: 'Light' from Jotun Walls: 'Soul' from Jotun Ceiling: code S2005-B Curtains: Sweet pea dove blue
- Double bedroom Window frames and skirting boards: 'Light' from Jotun Walls: 'Soul' from Jotun Ceiling: Poetry red from Jotun Curtains: sweet pea burgundy from Gotain
I have to say, I love all the curtains, they really bring together the rooms! Are there any details that caught your eye?
Follow @junik to keep an eye on her latest home updates - I see the kitchen will be ready soon!
Have a fantastic weekend all! Thank you, as always for stopping by, it really means so much!
