Trend Characteristics
A natural palette of concrete, wood and crisp, white walls, Nordic Nature embodies a more Scandinavian aesthetic. This trend is inspired by what is right outside your window. Look for unique opportunities to make a natural but bold statement, like using wood on the ceiling. The style is rustic, yet uncluttered and modern.
Project: DIY Concrete Planters
Ursula Carmona took inspiration from the 2023 Design Trend "Nordic Nature" to craft these beautiful, modern DIY concrete planters.
Ursula, from Home Made by Carmona, embraced the simple beauty of raw materials to create these modern pieces. They are easy to make in an afternoon, and can grace your vignette, coffee table or outdoor living areas with simple Scandinavian nature-inspired style.

- Create a unique, custom tile look using a stencil. Mark out your grid using chalk and then tape the stencil down using FrogTape® Brand Painter's Tape.
- Texture is everything for Nordic Nature. Apply a subtle concrete layer to your walls for added interest, movement and texture. Use FrogTape® to keep the lines neat.
- Nordic Nature is about contrast and texture. A black painted fireplace against crisp, white walls heightens the interest — and drama — in the space.
