The Nordic colour palette has seen a dramatic shift in recent years - plain white walls and
monochrome tones have been replaced with rich complex and vibrant hues. As well as
discussing the theories behind this shift and analysing the most popular colour schemes in
Nordic Homes in Colour Antonia af Petersens offers expert advice on choosing colour for your
home. She visits 10 Nordic homes divided into three different styles. 'Dark Eclectic' schemes
feature deep intense hues: dusk blue storm grey forest green and indigo all inspired by the
more dramatic tones of the Nordic landscape. 'Bold Accents' focuses on the details that add
character - deep red berry bushes or the russet tones of the northern birch forests in autumn.
Finally in 'Majestic Pastels' Antonia provides a glimpse into interiors decorated in strong
but subtle pastels for a remarkably modern effect. Nordic Homes in Colour is a fantastic new
edition of the previously published New Nordic Colour.
