2025 Trend: Scandinavian style for your children
Adopt Scandinavian style in your children's bedroom
Looking for a soft, practical, and soothing decor for your child's bedroom? Scandinavian style is a safe bet: minimalist, natural, and warm. Born in Nordic countries, it focuses on light, noble materials, and light colors to create a secure and modern universe. Follow us to adopt this iconic look, kids version!
The origins and evolution of Scandinavian style
Born after World War II in Scandinavia, this style is above all a practical response to long, dark winters. The goal? Create bright and comfortable interiors. The "hygge" (Denmark) and "lagom" (Sweden) life philosophies have a lot to do with it: it's about finding the perfect balance between comfort, simplicity, and warmth.
Designers like Arne Jacobsen (Egg chair) or Alvar Aalto (Savoy vase) laid the foundations of this design that combines aesthetics and functionality. Even today, their lines influence trends, with an eco-designed touch and more organic shapes.
The philosophy of Scandinavian design
Scandinavian style is a way of life:
- Functional: each piece of furniture is useful, nothing superfluous.
- Simple and beautiful: clean lines, all in softness.
- Natural: light wood, wool, linen... bringing the forest into the home.
- Minimalist: breathe in an uncluttered space with soft colors.
This style invites well-being, serenity, while being practical and sustainable. It's perfect for creating a protective cocoon for a child.
The global influence of Scandinavian design
Exported since the 1950s, Nordic style has conquered the planet. In France, it's often associated with vintage; in Asia, it blends with Japanese minimalism; in America, it's enriched with peppy colors. But it keeps its DNA: comfort + simplicity + nature.
It's a "chameleon" decor that adapts to all cultures without ever losing its essence.
Important characteristics of Scandinavian style
Color palette and luminosity
Scandinavian style relies on a light and natural palette: white, beige, light gray, pastel blue, or powder pink. Black, in small touches, adds contrast.
These colors reflect light and visually enlarge spaces. For dark rooms, we use mirrors and light hanging fixtures.
Natural materials and textures
Light wood reigns supreme: pine, birch, oak... combined with natural textiles (linen, wool, organic cotton). These materials warm up the room and stimulate children's senses.
The secret: mix textures (a knit throw, a long-pile rug) for a cozy result without overcrowding.

Why is Scandinavian style ideal for children?
Scandinavian style isn't just aesthetic: it also responds to the real needs of modern families.
✅ It promotes calm and sleep
Soft colors and minimalist organization create a secure cocoon, conducive to rest.
✅ It grows with the child
Unlike very marked decor (too pink, too blue...), Nordic style is timeless. A convertible bed or a wardrobe with simple design lasts through the years without going out of style.
✅ It encourages autonomy
Scandinavian style aligns with Montessori principles: child-height furniture, minimal visual clutter, a clean environment that leaves room for creativity.
The distinctive elements of Scandinavian design
Furniture with clean lines
What defines Nordic furniture: simple shapes, rounded angles, comfort, and practicality. A good example? The Archipel bedside table with its clean and soft lines.
Art and wall decoration
Geometric patterns, forest illustrations, abstract shapes... wall decorations remain discreet but expressive. Pastel wallpaper, wooden frames, small round mirrors: the key is maintaining harmony.
The application of Scandinavian style in different spaces
The Scandinavian bedroom
The Nordic children's bedroom combines pastel tones, natural wood, and smart furniture. Choose light curtains, clever storage solutions, and soft lighting.
In 2025, the trend pushes even further towards recycled materials, with soft and ecological wallpaper patterns.

The kitchen and dining room
Light wood furniture, open shelving, minimalist dinnerware. All highlighted with matte black or bamboo. Geometric pattern tablecloths and cushions add rhythm.
The minimalist living room
Soft sofas, an oak coffee table, a wool rug, a rocking chair... The atmosphere is peaceful, the lighting soft. In 2025, plant-based materials are taking over: organic cotton, washed linen.
Outdoor spaces
Light wood, rattan, ecru cushions, green plants. We prefer recycled materials like polished concrete. The living wall and LED string lights add a hygge touch.
Scandinavian style is the art of combining aesthetics, comfort, and functionality. Perfect for children's universe, it offers a soft, sustainable, and trendy cocoon. With Chambrekids, embrace this simple, beautiful, and responsible lifestyle philosophy.
