Twelve Lively Aesthetic Trends Showcased in Sussie's Vibrant Danish Residence
In the heart of Denmark, nestled within a charming Danish summerhouse in Lammefjorden, the annual event known as Formland is taking place. This year's theme, Colour Stories, is a vibrant celebration of contemporary Danish home design.
Participants such as Instabydomi, Jou Quilts, Weekend Dreaming: A Cosy Riverside Cottage in Denmark, and Kristina's Light & Airy Copenhagen Home with Sta... are showcasing their unique takes on the current design trends.
The style of the event is described as anything goes and eclectic dreams, encouraging mixing and matching patterns, and going wild with paint. The unexpected is welcomed, and playful accessories are a common sight. Art is a significant part of the event, adding to its eclectic charm.
The colour trends at Formland reflect a harmonious blend of coziness, natural elements, and refined minimalism. Pastel tones like blush pinks, lavender, and creamy whites create gentle, cocoon-like interiors. Cooler Scandinavian tones are balanced with warmer, earthy colors inspired by Japanese design, with black as a strong accent color for contrast and sophistication.
Popular colors from Copenhagen’s new color house Blēo feature shades like Highline, which appears as green or blue depending on light, and Bowery, a richer tone drawing inspiration from NYC.
Design trends highlighted include the use of natural wood flooring lightened with white wood soap, functional, minimalistic furniture emphasizing quality craftsmanship, and the incorporation of rattan lampshades, braided wall pockets, and elegant Scandinavian dining chairs.
A trend toward pared-down, well-curated interiors that balance simplicity with playful shapes and colorful accents is also evident. Scandinavian elements such as wainscoting, light wood floors, and beige or neutral walls are integrated to maintain brightness and spaciousness.
Upcycling and patch and repair are trends at the event, with many participants showcasing their creative repurposing of items. Patch and repair is a part of the event, encouraging attendees to get creative and give new life to old pieces.
Sussie Frank, a well-known figure in Danish design, is associated with the event. Her vision for Colour Stories is a reflection of the current color and design trends in Danish homes, emphasizing soft, subtle, and stylish palettes combined with natural materials and simplistic design elements.
