What actually is the Scandi style?
"Scandi style" is the short word for Scandinavian design. This style has been around since the 50s and is characterized by functionality, clean lines, subtle colors and natural materials. Overall very minimalist, there are usually only a few accents, but they have all the more impact. With IKEA, it has also become apparent that there is more to Scandinavian design than just a stylistic direction: namely, the attitude that it should be accessible to all. This is also reflected in the fact that it is easy to build yourself! If we compare it, for example, with the sprawling flourishes of Baroque and Rococo, a straightforward and sober Scandi-style piece is perfect to recreate - even for beginners!
Tip: To extend play and fun for the children, you can build a mud kitchen yourself from pallets and match it in colour to the playhouse.
