Difference from Nordic Style: Harder, More Open, Larger

A mid-century modern interior that is distinctly American, not Nordic. Nordic style features white walls, light wood, small spaces, abundant textiles and candles, exuding an introverted and warm ambiance. Here, the space is much larger: an open, undivided floor plan, full-height glass walls, exposed dark wood beams, and a brick or stone fireplace core. The wood is dark teak and walnut, not light ash. The overall feel is extroverted and connected to the outdoors. Avoid: using white walls and whitewashed light wood, making the space small and enclosed, adding abundant textiles and candles for warmth, using delicate, light-legged Nordic furniture as the sole design language.

一個明顯是美國而非北歐的世紀中現代室內。北歐風是白牆、淺木、小坪數、大量織品與蠟燭,氣質是內向保暖的。這裡的空間大得多:開放的無隔間平面、整面的落地玻璃、外露的深色木樑、磚砌或石砌的壁爐核心。木頭是深色的柚木與胡桃,不是淺色的白蠟。整體是外向的、與戶外連通的。避免:使用白牆與刷白的淺木、把空間做成小而封閉的、加入大量織品與蠟燭的溫暖堆疊、使用北歐的細腳輕巧家具作為唯一語彙。
