White tones and light wood. These often characterize a Scandinavian interior design. It is a minimalistic style that emphasizes simplicity, clean lines, and incorporates more neutral or muted colors like white, gray and brown hues. Furniture pieces as well as other decorative elements are kept minimal. Most of the time, everything is painted white and the wood textures from the flooring or furniture are the only main feature that adds some pop of color and warmth in the space. The use of natural light is also a factor in Scandinavian design, which help bring more life amidst the neutral tones.
These are some examples of Scandinavian interiors from a 20-ft. Shipping Container Project:

Since a shipping container has a very limited amount of internal space, painting the walls and ceiling white can help make it feel more spacious, airy or open. Aside from having a lot of windows to let some natural light and ventilation in, the light-tone wood flooring, white walls and minimalist furniture pieces contribute to making the space look brighter. The black-colored pendant lights hanging above the dining area also act as an accent feature that blends well among the neutral tones of this Scandinavian interior design.
Shipping Container Office Interior

Applying Scandinavian interior design in an office workspace does not only help brighten up the area or make it feel a lot more spacious with the minimalist approach, especially in a project like the one shown above where there is limited space inside a shipping container. Scandinavian style which emphasizes clean lines and light can actually be helpful for the users, or in this case the office personnel, in terms of work productivity. Having a clean and just an airy or light environment brings out a calm vibe that can help you concentrate better on your tasks.

Scandinavian interior design can also be applied in commercial establishments like this food store project. The minimalist side of Scandinavian style allows the space to look less cramped and can let you accommodate more people inside. The neutral tones, though it may appear too boring for others, can serve as a way to accentuate the products being sold. The bright and airy interiors could also help set the vibe of the whole space to make you enjoy your meal much more.
