Nordic Neo-Tradition: Blue-Grays, Plain Wood, and Light Colors

A Nordic new traditional living room. Walls are fully covered with vertical narrow wooden boards or flat-panel wainscoting, including door frames and baseboards, all painted a soft grayish-blue, with a matte mineral plaster finish showing subtle brushstrokes. The ceiling is painted a lighter warm white. Furniture has traditional silhouettes but light proportions: a straight-backed wooden frame sofa with plain linen cushions, two painted wooden chairs, an unpainted solid wood coffee table. The wood is light pine or ash, and some furniture finishes are deliberately distressed to reveal the wood color underneath. Soft furnishings are unbleached linen and coarse cotton, in white and light gray. The floor is whitewashed wide plank wood flooring. Windows are large, light is bright and cool. Avoid: using dark and heavy furniture, adding intense colors, using floral prints and velvet, depicting the space as dim and warm.

一間北歐的新傳統起居室。牆面做滿垂直的窄木板牆或平框護牆板,連同門框與踢腳板全部漆成一種柔和的灰藍色,表面是霧面的礦物塗料,可以看見隱約的刷痕。天花漆成更淺的暖白。家具是傳統的輪廓但比例輕巧:一張直背的木框沙發配素面亞麻坐墊、兩張漆過的木椅、一張未上漆的原木矮几,木材是淺色的松木或白蠟木,部分家具的漆面刻意磨損露出底下的木色。軟裝是未漂白的亞麻與粗棉,顏色是白與淺灰。地面是刷白的寬板木地板。窗大,光線明亮而冷。避免:使用深色與厚重的家具、加入濃烈的顏色、使用花卉印花與絨布、把空間畫得昏暗溫暖。
