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.

AIRPLANE VIEW OF

ONE WORLD TRADE CENTER

In this outstanding capture by James Kastner, we see the famous Manhattan skyline, with the now-completed One World Trade Center towering over everything. The photograph was taken from an airplane window as James traveled from Newark to Miami. The image was posted by Kastner to Reddit where it has been viewed almost 175,000 times.
The photo is also part of Kastner’s ongoing photo series entitled Life After 10,000, a daily photo project Kastner began after reaching 10,000 days of age (or 27.38 years). This photo was day 10,602 (he’s current on day 10,615).
At 1,776 feet tall, the 104-story One World Trade Center is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere and the fourth tallest skyscraper in the world by pinnacle height. The symbolic 1,776 ft height is in reference to the year of the United States Declaration of Independence. In the foreground you can also see New Jersey’s skyline, which is still impressive despite being dwarfed by New York’s.

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.
