When it comes to Scandinavian apartments, the living room always draws attention due to spectacular details. For today we decided to prove that Northern cribs have a lot more to offer than amazing socializing areas. This is why we gathered 30 incredible looking bedrooms that are welcoming and not to mention inspiring. Even though they are all unique, we noticed some similar elements that are worth bringing up. First off, all the bedrooms in the photos below feature large windows that are usually covered by stylish window blinds or subtle curtains. On each side of the king-size bed there are traditional night tables, original shelving units or chairs. The walls are painted mostly in white, but here and there you will notice an interesting color disruption: some of the bedrooms have fresh wallpapers that liven up the room. The lighting details are particularly interesting to observe. We invite you to have a look at this beautiful bedroom gallery and let us know what details you find interesting.

Did you ever think about using some of the natural elements in nature to help enhance the natural beauty within your home?  Well, one of the strongest elements is rock.  You can choose for it to be placed as an accent wall or around the fireplace for more rough and rustic rocks.  Or perhaps you prefer the softer and smoother rock for your bathroom.  Whatever you chose will go great for your interiors.  So look below and become inspired to use the rock.

Choosing a bold and rustic or smooth rocks:

Rock displays and symbolizes a natural element yet it can also mean royalty.  You can see it throughout history from stately castles to urban lofts; that the rock is put in higher end architecture to show wealth and power.  Plus rock will usually last for a long period of time.  So try to incorporate your interior and exterior walls with rock that has a natural stone brick.  To ensure the durability and rustic look for your home. Believe or not, rock can help to relax and calm the human body.  The rocks help the body to remember the tranquil ambience of streams, brooks, wooded areas etc. and connect with the emotions that it would feel within those areas.  Bring rustic rock into your interiors for backsplashes, bathrooms, showers, vanity counter pull in smooth natural stones that will help your body to rest.

Rustic rock can transform any surface:

Rock is a versatile material and many of us only think of it for fireplace walls or for isolated projects. Whether you choose to have it on your walls, flooring, countertops, or even your ceilings the rock element can give a very natural rustic or smooth look wherever it is used.  Depending on how you intend to finish off the rock can change the entire aesthetics of your home environment. Use flagstone, river rocks, or boulders for the exteriors or accent walls within your home. If regular rock is too heavy or cumbersome in your home remodeling project or too expensive consider using veneers. Rustic rock veneer uses a thin layer of rock with structural support material behind the rock, providing the support and stability of the wall or application. Veneer walls come in a variety of colors and rock varieties.

Use exterior rock details for your interiors:

Play with idea of combining some of the qualities of the exterior with the interiors.  Rock is one of those materials that can look the same on the outside as well as on the inside too.  Some examples would be log cabins at a ski resort or mountain homes.  Also, try using rock on your entryways and again the fireplace too.

Never underestimate the power of nature or a natural element within your interiors.  Rocks can be a calming and serene addition to your space.  Natural stones such as rocks and others can be so flexible that they can be used practically anywhere within the home.  It is completely up to you how you prefer to display or use it.  So take these suggestions and see how you can rock out your own interiors.

 Set in a rough, yet spectacular landscape, with a neighboring 250-foot drop to the Pacific Ocean, Fall House by Fougeron Architecture is a one-of-a-kind vacation retreat: “The long, thin volume of the house conforms to the natural contours of the land and the geometries of the bluff, deforming its shape and structure in response. In this way, the complex structural system applies natural forms to accommodate the siting. The main bearing system of the house is set back twelve feet from the bluff, both to protect the cliff’s delicate ecosystem and to ensure the structure’s integrity and safety”.

One of the facades was left transparent, in order to reveal ocean and coastline views, while the opposite was clad in copper. The building is composed of two rectangular volumes connected by a glass “buffer zone”, which hosts the library. The most dramatic interior of the house is probably the cantilevered master bedroom, offering breathtaking ocean views from its floor-to-ceiling windows.
