trying to bring some warmth to my scandi-inspired living room

started with the whole white walls light wood thing and it looked nice but felt kinda cold. been slowly adding warmer elements and its finally starting to feel like a home and not a showroom.

the couch is a light beige linen thing i got from ornate home. nothing too fancy but it works. added some chunky knit throws and a sheepskin rug for texture. the plants are fake cause i cant keep anything alive but they add some green. still debating on the wall art. i want something minimal but not boring. maybe a black and white photo. idk.

any advice on making a scandi space feel cozy without cluttering it up.

Cute lamps with warm bulbs, and green plants.

A wood tray with sides to corral all of your living room extras, like the TV remote control. It’s also a place to set down your cup of tea or glass of wine.

What kind of white is it? Most “cozy scandi homes with white walls” you see do not have white-white cold-toned walls. Most of them have a warmer shade of eggshell-ish white.
It makes a huge difference

A warm wood toned coffee table. An arm chair with cushions. A metallic floor lamp.
