This kitchen-dining room is like a modern woman: strong and sophisticated, austere yet playful. Raw concrete meets light wood to create a coolly elegant base, while carefully placed objects and decorations create a warm, homely atmosphere. Small details such as cutting boards on floating shelves and countertops, plants and uncluttered pots and pans all serve functionality while conveying the delicacy and femininity of the design. An interior where style and practicality go hand in hand, creating the perfect space for everyday moments.
This interior is a kitchen-dining room reflecting contemporary Scandinavian minimalism, combining elegant simplicity with brutalist and industrial styling. The raw concrete walls and ceilings evoke the harder, geometric forms of Brutalism, refined by bright wood surfaces and rich decorative elements. Plates, glasses, cutting boards and plants on floating shelves bring warmth and cosiness to the space, breaking the strict, austere lines.
The room’s herringbone parquet flooring lends an elegant rhythm to the floor, which harmonises with the Scandinavian-style chairs, while black metal lamps and an industrial hood add striking, modern edges to the interior. The different shapes and placement of the lamps suggest a playfulness that enhances the mood of the space, balancing rigid, geometric shapes with looser, more lively elements.
This space can be ideal for those who want functionality and minimalism, but still want a cosy, natural feel. It’s perfect for those with a lifestyle who prefer a clean, Scandinavian simplicity but aren’t afraid to play with combining different styles and textures. The practical and open layout suggests that functionality is important to the homeowners, but they also enjoy the presence of beautiful objects and small details in their everyday lives.
