The ultra-modern open space continues to be enjoyed because it also meets the needs of space organization, to cope with the decrease in square meters available. It should be conceived as a multifunctional space that, especially between the kitchen, living room and study, should be able to be easily transformed according to the situation. You need versatile tools and furniture that can be adapted to any space, style and needs.

Or the living room remains a cozy retreat to rest and relax, leaving the world outside. In both cases, the trend for 2019 will be to create as much as possible a well-kept, design, simple but very elegant living room, thanks to refined and modern furniture with never banal shapes and finishes.

5 ideas to furnish your home with the Scandinavian style

5 ideas to furnish your home with the Scandinavian style. Here our tips to create a real hygge environment.

The ideal basis of the Scandinavian style is the use of wood, preferably light wood, bleached but also colored (only for some accessories or furniture) in more vibrant tones in order to break the monotony of an environment that would be too trivial. Wood, being a warm material capable of creating a very welcoming environment, is always modern and up-to-date, finding great versatility and insertion even with very different styles. You can create, in fact, neutral combinations, anything but cold that can prove extremely hot and become the keystone to solve situations of furniture in a way that is anything but anonymous.

Here are 6 suggestions to take inspiration from:

1 Kitchen

We recommend combining light wood with a matt finish, white or a very delicate pastel colour, such as blue or green, thus creating an essential and minimalist environment that is at the same time very welcoming. If the kitchen is large, it is better to opt for a table with stools or chairs in natural wood.

Get the look: Nudo Basic Table

Nudo Basic Table Sancal designed by Juan Ibáñez for Sancal is a dining table with a simple and linear design. The name Nudo refers to the knots found in wood in its natural state. A special hard wearing matt treatment gives the table a traditional wax-like finish, accentuating the natural grain of the solid oak top. The structure is made of oak wood and is available in a wide selection of colours. It’s possible to choose the top in wood or in marble. The table is available square or rectangular in four different sizes in order to satisfay all needs.

Get the look: Diverge Chair

The Diverge Chair Miniforms, designed by Skrivo, takes part of the new 2018 collection by Miniforms that has been presented for the first time at the Salone del Mobile in Milan this year. The design is simple but very modern: four wooden legs that with the form of a V letter, a minimal backrest and a comfortable seat available in ecoleather or fabric in a wide choice of elegant colours. The structure is available in four different finishings: black stained ash, anthracite stained ash, bleached ash and walnut stained ash. It’s possibile to choose the fabric coating among: tramé, jeans, sponge, abstract, bubble and regal. The Diverge Chair Miniforms, with its Scandinavian style, is suitable for the decoration of minimal and cozy dining rooms.

2 Living room

The very light wood that in its nuances goes as far as the warmest essences of the honey color, or the very dark wood, which can create very interesting contrasts, could be one of the most suitable solutions for those who want to give a touch of Scandinavian style to their living room. Avoid, for the upholstery of the sofa and armchairs, the too dark and heavy colors such as purple, burgundy red and bottle green … Focus on delicate colors such as pink, blue and soft yellow.

Get the look: Copla Sofa

Copla Sofa Sancal, designed by Rafa García, is characterized by shapely ash legs, and plump cushions which pay homage to the songbirds of Spain’s traditional café theatres performing their “Coplas”. By using the feet structure to join the modules, the seating structure has been reduced to the bare minimum, leaving space for plenty of comfortable filling materials while maintaining compact measurements. Copla Sofa Sancal is a welcome, inviting piece suitable for both domestic and public spaces. The casual, cosy look of its cushions and striking, 21cm tall, leg structure set the piece apart from the pack. The composition’s generous array of elements, two different arms, three armchairs, twelve sofas, nine modules and a corner module, enable the design to be arranged to the needs of each project. The best way to create angle combinations is to simply use any of the high arm pieces, although there is also a dedicated corner module if required.

Get the look: Rew Sofa

Rew Sofa Sancal, designed by Rafa García takes part of a collection composed by upholstered armchairs, sofas and benches suitable for both residential and professional use.

The K3 sofa is characterized by a compact and dependable design and thanks to its clean lines it is suitable for all kinds of environments in any of its versions.
The integrated back cushion strengthens the design and gives a relatively deep seat with a compact overall depth.

Get the look: Lem Sofa

Lem Sofa Miniforms, designed by Francesco Beghetto, is a soft and a sinuous collection composed by two sofas, an armchair and an ottoman; the tubular structure with the aid of straps, is fully covered in fabric without using foams. The soft seat cushions and backrest on the shell fabric ensure maximum comfort. Coating is available in tramé, twins, sponge, regal and abstract fabrics in a wide choice of elegant colours. Lem Sofa Miniforms is perfect for the decoration of modern living rooms.

3 Dining room

For the decoration of a dining room using too much wood combined with white or soft colors may be a wrong choice, as the environment would become too cold and aseptic. It is advisable, therefore, to play a little more with warm colors, with dark wood, with particular furnishings and design that can give personality and vigor to the space.

Get the look: Vichy Table

Vichy Table Sancal designed by the French duo BrichetZiegler for Sancal is a collection of tables, suitable for both private and public applications, that includes a dining table, two coffee tables and one side table. The design casts aside the bland conventions that have, until recently, been hidden under flowing tablecloths. Today’s table designs have been laid bare by the trend for chefs to serve their creations on only the scantiest of placemats. Gingham fabric, or vichy in French, used to dress both people and tables for generations, lends the product more than just its name. This unmistakable pattern of squares has been replicated in oak, sycamore and walnut marquetry. Even if the restaurant shrouds the Vichy in a long table cloth, two slender solid oak legs will peak out cheekily, held in place by a shoe-like stand that will resist even the clumsiest of dates.

Get the look: Pion Table

Pion Table Sancal designed by Ionna Vautrin for Sancal is a collection of tables inspired by a chess set, indeed the finishes play with contrasts: high gloss for the base lacquers and a matt finish on the wooden tops. This collection includes dining tables, a stool and coffee tables of different sizes and shapes. The base colours are available in a selection of lacquers; Mustard, Olive, Peach, Sky-Blue and Shadow. This surface runs right the way up to the underside of the dining table top and is used only on the lower section of the foot on the occasional tables and stools. Solid slatted sycamore is used in the upper sections of the occasional tables and stools, and as a veneer on the dining tables. The tops are available in a Natural or a Shadow stain.

Get the look: Magnum Chair

Magnum Sancal, designed by EstudiHac’s José Manuel Ferrero for Sancal is an elegant collection of stools, lounge chairs and dining chairs suitable for both demanding public spaces and domestic use.
Magnum Chair Sancal pays homage to the very British elegance, indeed the designer has drawn inspiration from the glasses of cognac that members of exclusive London clubs cradle in their hands as they debate politics.
Magnum Chair Sancal is available in 4 different models: with upholstered base, with wooden feet, with metal feet and with lacquered central leg.
Available with fixed covers, the Magnum chair can be coated in fabric.

Get the look: Bipede Table

Bipede Table Miniforms is characterized by the legs that are screwed on triangular brackets which are on the table top and, from a technical element, becoming a decorative design element, indeed the transparent tempered glass seems suspended in the air. Easy to assembly, the structure is made of metal available in white, black, silver or bronze colours. Bipede Table Miniforms is only available in the fixed version in two sizes and can be well combined with Chic Chair

4 Bedroom

In the bedroom the furniture has to relax and reconcile sleep. It is therefore not possible to use solutions that are too bright and tiring for the eyesight, which in the long run would only risk being irritating. So it would be better to dose the use of wood, which would create an environment too warm, almost suffocating and the use of white color that would make the bedroom too bright, almost blinding.
It is advisable to opt for large, enveloping beds covered in soft fabric, minimalist, essential furnishings and accessories and to choose relaxing colours for the eye, such as blue, grey, pale pink and green.

Get the look: Blanket Bed

The Blanket Bed Bonaldo, designed by Alessandro Busana, is an extremely comfortable and enveloping double bed characterized by a particular and original design. Warmth, softness and a sense of protection are the feelings which inspired the Blanket Bed thanks to the wide roller headboard made with a blanket that is available in various colours of fabric.
The components have been inverted and the blanket has been transformed from a mere accessory to an absolute star. Indeed, a large, soft quilt makes up the base of this bed, supporting the mattress and, at the foot of the bed, it has been folded over and then rolled up at the top end to form the headrest.
The feet of the Blanket Bed Bonaldo are available in three different elegant finishings: matt white, matt dove grey and matt anthracite grey.

The 5 Best Corner Sofas

The 5 Best Corner Sofas. Let’s find out them together.

The corner sofa is synonymous with conviviality and convinces by its natural ability to furnish, without the need for too many accessories or furniture. Often excluded a priori when dealing with the furnishing of the living room, for fear of its size and the consequent difficulty in adapting the environment to changing needs, the corner sofa has experienced in recent years a new rediscovery and spread.
This is due to more functional, modular models, equipped with accessories such as mobile dividers, headboards and bed structures, carefully hidden, which have contributed to making the corner sofa versatile and able to satisfy almost all needs.

But let’s see together the most versatile models and in vogue for this year, able to furnish with elegance and discretion any environment, playing with the colors, shapes and styles.

1 Light and simple as air: Air Sofa

The Air corner sofa is already able to define, thanks to its discreet personality, the “seating area”. Unlike small sofas or the association between two armchairs, indeed, with its volume it assigns a clear and univocal function to the environment. As a result, a few accessories are all that is needed to make the room complete and welcoming.

The Air Sofa Sancal was designed by Rafa García who created a modern and comfortable sofa characterized by a linear design and the multiple compositions that we can attain with simple variations of depth and height. Two heights for the backrest are available: 81 or 88cm. There are three options for the armrests: wide, narrow and high that can be combined within the same composition. The high arm option, for example, is perfect for forming a corner module. The beech feet, available in the black colour are recessed: it seems to float on air! The Air Sofa Sancal comes in fabric or leather in a wide choice of elegant colours.

2 Timeless shapes: Happen Sofa

Even more than what happens when two small sofas are combined to form an “L” configuration, the advantages of an angular sofa include the ability to give the room in which it is placed a natural inclination to conversation and exchange. Those who sit down can occupy adjacent positions, but arranged frontally rather than side-by-side: an optimal pre-condition to start long and pleasant face-to-face conversations!

Happen Sofa Sancal was designed by Rafa García who created a very comfortable and enveloping modular sofa characterized by a linear and modern design. The Happen sofa can fit into any project and any space, indeed a wide range of compositions are possible making it suitable for the decoration of living rooms and waiting rooms too. The legs are available in beech wood in the wengué plus finishings. Coating comes in fabric or leather in a wide choice of elegant colours. The wide seat cushions are exceptionally comfortable with a generous 6cm topping of memory foam.

3 Comfort and beauty: Up! Sofa

The corner sofa can either be positioned along the walls, but it can also become the protagonist of the environment if placed in the centre of a room, which allows to move around and access to any other doors or French windows.

The Up! sofa Sancal, designed by Rafa García is a modern and upholstered sofa which combines comfort and beauty.These features are difficult to reconcile in a sofa because the higher a back is the more comfortable it is, but it can seem less attractive. Once more, Rafa García has squared a circle with an interesting innovation. The Up! sofa Sancal is characterised by the possibility of incorporating an easy mechanism which allows you to modify the height of the back cushions; whilst maintaining the most representative feature of this project: the softness of its lines. The cosy aspect of the cushions is not only an aesthetic matter, but a faithful reflection of its comfort. Its arms are also exclusive, with that light vintage air which takes us back to the fabulous fifties. The Up! sofa is available in two different models, with wide or narrow armrests and in various sizes in order to satisfy all user’s needs. Available in fabric or leather it can be chosen among several elegant colours.

4 Chillout effect: Duo Sofa

Do not underestimate the usefulness of the corner sofa for the decoration of a studio or of an open-space living area, without walls or partitions, even partial, between the kitchen, the dining area and the living room itself. Its shape and the possibility of inserting elements exactly where it is needed make the corner sofa a useful piece of furniture to divide without dividing completely. A good way to define the flows within the domestic space.

Duo Sofa Sancal, designed by Rafa García, is a modern modular sofa characterized by a simple design, a chill-out style and rounded volumes. The Duo Sofa lines are accentuated due to its seat and back cushions being integrated into the frame. The Duo Sofa Sancal is provided with wide seating, resulting in an ideal piece to fill with decorative cushions or incorporate extra back cushions. The variety of modules offered by this model (modules with and without arms, terminal modules, armchairs, corner units and pouf) makes it an all-purpose item for various environments. The legs are available in beech wood stained in wengue colour. Coating is available in fabric in a wide choice of elegant colours.

5 A contemporary classic: Tiptoe Sofa

Who doesn’t want, after a day of study or work, to lie down on their couch stretching their legs without any more thoughts? One of the reasons for buying the corner sofa is undoubtedly the possibility of having the so-called upholstered lounge chaise or an entire side peninsula, without fixed dividers.

BEDROOM: If you love modern style with a Scandinavian touch, you will already have come across rooms with pearl grey interiors and have already saved them in your social feeds. Nothing could be more comprehensible: pearl grey is in fact very recommended in this environment because it is a delicate shade that combines relaxation and rest. Yes then to the use of a gray wallpaper or maybe thick curtains to obscure the light at night, but it is also absolutely perfect on sheets and furniture for a simple touch and at the same time very elegant. Let be inspired by these beautiful bedrooms!

BATHROOM: From walls to furniture, pearl grey is a classic of another environment: the bathroom. Try it on ceramic tiles combined with warm tones and transparent glass panels for the shower surfaces, but it will also be perfect on stone or concrete surfaces, resins, thermal paints and small mosaics to restore a space of extremely sophisticated and elegant charm. Enjoy these wonderful baths!

An Explosion Of Colours

An explosion of colours. Story of an ideal apartment in the heart of New York.

The famous architect Gio Ponti, in 1957 wrote the quote “Architecture is colourless and what you are working on is the environment, on landscaping”. Just three years earlier, precisely in 1954, Ettore Sottsass complained about the exclusive interest in structure displayed by modern architects, crying out for them to consider “a setting in the normal sense of the word”, and thus one made up of colours and emotional intensities that go well beyond any structural reality. He also added “By dint of whitening walls, of brightening things up and wanting more light, the significance of colours in architecture has almost been lost”.

These are old questions that are still relevant and even in one of the emblematic settings of contemporary global living , such as a very high end real-estate development in the heart of a metropolis, colour has been used to show how a setting can be transformed into a “domestic landscaping” and liberated from the abstractions of the structure that contains it.

“Entering a room with the right colours is like enjoying a balanced meal or listening to a suggestive piece of music: a pleasure for the senses, in which to linger is pleasant and refreshing. If managed with care, colour is no less important than a piece of furniture or the correct arrangement of the furniture, but it becomes a basic element to make a space alive and welcoming.” Stephanie Hoppen

Feminine but not cloying, the shades of pink, raspberry and red never go unnoticed. The tonality of the raspberry includes the fruity nuances of cherry but also tomato and can be well combined with white, blue and gray creating lively and elegant atmospheres without ever compromising the visual impact of the environment.

A return of colour is in progress. The season of neutral and clear colours is not over, yet new, subtle chromatic nuances are beginning to creep in and replace classic preferences, to create warm, welcoming and lively environments.
