5 Scandi kitchen design ideas
We see so many wonderful Scandi-style ideas, but it’s the kitchen that always catches our eye when looking through potential homes to feature in Simply Scandi. Here are a few of our favourite kitchen ideas we wish we’d thought of (and if you love these… wait until you see the rest of the interior!).
1 The cutest magnetic wallpaper noticeboard
White kitchens always look Scandi-cool, especially this layout from our Vol 4 Winter issue, with it’s deep pan drawers and colourwashed walls. But look closer and you’ll spot a rabbit… not just any rabbit, a magnetic wallpaper panel one that’s almost too cute to cover up with family memos and party invites. We just love the way it pops up from behind the worktop.
This kitchen is from Marte Kihl’s Norwegian home, which features in our Vol 4 Winter Simply Scandi. Marte loves to add a surprise element to each room – here it’s the rabbit magnetic wallaper by Sister’s Guild, available at notonthehighstreet.com

3 The reclaimed tiled floor
Perhaps one for the most determined among us? This reclaimed brick floor, which runs through the kitchen-dining room of Susan Morgensen’s home, was sourced from all over Denmark, taking almost two months to clean, cut and lay the bricks.

4 The letterbox window
This long, narrow window, running above the units of Pernille Berg’s Norwegian home, gives a lovely fresh outlook, echoing the light, bright space she’s created inside. The paint colours Pernille’s used throughout, all have one thing in common – the need to make her happy. She’s teamed this lovely soft green with a delicate pink and soft blue, providing a bright yet cosy backdrop to her kitchen.
It’s easy to see why Pernille’s home was our very first cover home – you can still enjoy our Vol 1 Simply Scandi as a digital edition (print copies have all sold out).

5 The seasonal shelfie
After a reconfiguring the interior of the Norwegian coastal home Linda Olsrud Tallerrud shares with her husband Dag, they were left with a long, narrow kitchen. Today, an island runs its length, with the food prep area at one end, and a socialable space at the other. The back wall is home to floating oak shelves, which Linda likes to style to suit the season, adding texture and fresh delicate foliage.
