Defined by functionalism, light colours, light wood, graphic prints and smaller, high-quality furnishings, the Scandinavian style is popular amongst the younger generations and now even those older.
Sleek, efficient and quirky at times without ever losing sight of the purpose of the room, the Scandinavian style is perhaps one of the best styles to apply to your bathroom. The mixing of wood, fun, modern patterns and geometric accessories can be just what you need when you're wondering how to liven up a smaller, more functional space. As most Scandinavian homes don't come equipped with too much space, they are normally equipped with an abundance of natural light and fun, personal accessories that define a life on the go and spent with peers. The bathrooms below will show you the more fun, unique side of Scandinavian style, as well as how incredibly functional it can be!
Light-grain wood is the most perfect colour and type of wood you can use in Scandinavian design. Wood also handles heat and humidity well!
Graphic prints and fresh patterns are the more fun side of Scandinavian style and this bathroom certainly doesn't lack in either!

Grey walls, glass partitions, white furnishings and a few bold accessories have made this bathroom stand out and pop with colour. When your palette is neutrals, then the slightest bold colour can be fantastic.
White everything with black patterned tiles and black accessories—we definitely think black is an interesting touch here, but the sleek hardware and white walls still fall within the Scandinavian scope.
Like the idea of adding patterns and textures to your Scandinavian bathroom? This rustic/Scandi bathroom is a beautiful example.
A favourite of Scandinavian design, rounded mirrors are a fun and different approach to the over-exhausted use of rectangular and square bathroom mirrors.
If your bathroom is already small, don't waste time installing opaque partitions and dry wall—use glass for a seamless view!
If you do choose to go with tile, stick with light hues and especially shades of blue! There are three different divisions of tile in this bathroom and with the light hue, it all works together nicely.
Again, we have white and wood—perhaps the perfect combination. Although minimalism and modernism are part of Scandinavian design, the occasional high-pile rug is a must for comfort.
The white, gridded tiles, bright lights, sleek mirror and light-grain wood make this bathroom a stereotypical example of all that is Scandinavian. Don't forget to add some fresh greenery or succulents too!
