Scandinavian style has long been associated with light, clean-lined spaces or pared-down monochrome interiors. However, in recent years the colour palette has seen a dramatic shift away from pale, cool shades and dramatic, darker and more characterful hues have begun to appear in stylish Nordic homes. Why have the Scandinavians suddenly welcomed colour in this way and how is it being used? As well as discussing the theories behind this shift and analysis of the most popular colour schemes, in New Nordic Colour interiors writer Antonia af Petersen offers expert advice on choosing colour for your home. She goes on to visit 10 Nordic homes that are divided into three different types. 'Dark Eclectic' schemes feature deep, intense hues: dusk blue, storm grey, forest green and indigo, all inspired by the more dramatic tones of the Nordic landscape. 'Bold Accents' focuses on the details that stand out and add character - think deep red berry bushes or the russet tones of the northern birch forests in Autumn. Finally, in 'Majestic Pastels' Antonia provides a glimpse into interiors decorated in strong but subtle pastels for a remarkably modern effect. These unique Nordic homes all have one thing in common - plain white walls and monochrome palettes have been replaced with rich, complex and vibrant hues. 斯堪的纳维亚风格长期以来一直与明亮、整洁的内部空间或简约的单色内饰联系在一起。然而,近年来,色彩调色板发生了戏剧性的变化,从苍白、冷色调,戏剧性、深色和更有特色的色调开始出现在时尚的北欧家庭中。为什么斯堪的纳维亚人突然以这种方式欢迎颜色,它是如何被使用的?除了讨论这种转变背后的理论以及对最流行的配色方案的分析,《新北欧色彩室内设计》的作者 antonia af petersen 就如何为你的家选择色彩提供了专家建议。她访问了10个北欧家庭,这些家庭被分为三种不同的类型。“黑色折衷”的设计特点是深色,强烈的色调: 黄昏蓝色,风暴灰,森林绿和靛蓝色,所有的灵感都来自于更加戏剧化的北欧风景。“大胆的口音”侧重于突出的细节,并添加字符-想想深红色的浆果灌木丛或赤褐色调的北方桦树林在秋天。最后,在“宏伟的蜡笔”安东尼娅提供了一个强烈但微妙的蜡笔装饰的内部一瞥,一个非常现代的效果。这些独特的北欧家庭都有一个共同点——白色墙壁和单色调色板被丰富、复杂和充满活力的色调所取代。 出版社: Ryland, Peters & Small Ltd (2017年11月14日)
