Dining
I love the Scandinavian way of living, their use of white to brighten up the home during the dark, cold winter," Eijkenduijn says. The couple applied that formula to what was previously a dark space to create this sunny dining room. "The Scandinavians have this philosophy that if you paint your floors, walls and ceilings white, as soon as the sun comes out, your home is so vivid and bright ... like a burst of sunshine," she says
Layer white on white on white. Lots of white on white really brightens up any space. Start by whitewashing all your walls and furniture. Then layer white textiles, plates, linens and seat covers. Display a collection of white crockery in open cabinets and soft-color flowers — like these pale pink hydrangeas — in a white enamel jug for a rustic finishing touch.
Love, love, love this room. Cosy and erudite.
