Curating a Scandinavian-inspired home is easier than you think – 15 items to shop now

If you are drawn to functional spaces and minimalist decor, Scandinavian design is for you. It combines the Nordic styles of Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and Norway and is most known for its organic materials, clean lines, and timeless aesthetic. Using natural wood elements and soft textures, the aesthetic is all about functionality and organization. Think light-wood, mid-century modern dining chairs and low-to-the-ground, cozy couches. Purchasing Scandinavian designs (or Scandi-inspired pieces) is always worth the investment for their versatility and ability to outlast design trend cycles. Scandinavians have mastered an effortlessly cool look that is easy to re-create, even if you live all the way across the globe. And thanks to retailers like Walmart, styling your home in the Scandi way is more than attainable.

From TV consoles to dining room chairs, Bauhaus posters to bubble light pendants, Walmart's selection took me by surprise. Most Scandinavian furniture will cost well over $2000, but the products below all fall into the under-$500 category. Don't let the cost fool you, though. Quality craftsmanship remains at the forefront of these pieces. If you're moving into a new space or looking to swap large furniture pieces, check out the functional yet cool TV stands, cabinets, and dining chairs. If you want to add in touches of Scandinavian inspiration to your existing interior style, try the pendant lights, art posters, or coffee table books. While I'm sure we'd all like to pack up and move to these beautiful countries (or maybe it's just me), for now, we can update our homes to transport us there.
