12 Posters to Give Your Home That Spring Feeling
After a long and dark winter, the days in Scandinavia are finally getting longer, the sun is shining, and spring is very much in the air. The great winter thaw has begun and here at Project Nord, we are really looking forward to celebrating the longer days ahead.
The season of Spring also brings with it a sense of renewal and growth. This is a period of great change and therefore is the perfect time to redecorate your home and liven up your living spaces after the long winter. It’s also a great time to declutter and make the most of your space. There’s a reason it’s called Spring cleaning!
Spring is also a great time to brighten up your walls with a fresh poster that both inspires and looks great! Embracing the seasons is a key aspect of the Scandinavian lifestyle and that’s why we have created this list of Spring inspired posters.
Here are 12 posters that you should incorporate in your interior design to help create a sense of the Scandinavian spring in your home.
MIRROR LILIES
A detailed and versatile poster for all nature lovers
This hand-drawn lily poster features one beautiful spring colour: pink. This design was created in a special collaboration poster series with artist Mi (@ mihoang.art ). In this series, she recreated three of her favourite flowers. Click here to read our interview with Mi.
Decorating your room with this beautiful and lively design will really emphasise that sense of Spring and will feature perfectly in any room you want to brighten up for the coming season.
This wall art design works great in any room of your house and it’s a versatile design, especially if you’re looking for something simple, or to accompany pre-existing posters in your spaces.
HAND-PAINTED VINTAGE BOTANICAL PAPAYA
a vintage atmosphere for your living room
This hand-painted poster portrays a lively and colourful drawing of a papaya. The poster is designed to be featured during the spring and summer months, and the vintage atmosphere is also a key feature.
However, you could easily keep this print up all year long to imbue that spring sense of sunshine and new growth.
In Scandinavia, many people buy and collect vintage furniture to feature prominently within their houses. Not only do these pieces look good but they are also, of course, sustainable: something we take very seriously here at Project Nord. This poster is especially recommended to accompany vintage furniture.
This print is actually part of a collection featuring other fruits (such as a pomegranate and lemon). It could be fun to change up the fruit according to the season as a way to redecorate your room and embrace each coming season.
CRAYON WAVES
elegant geometric patterns to give your room a warm spring vibe
This poster is drawn in spring-like pink colours and is a piece that feels especially “Scandinavian”.
The artwork gives the impression of light and hot air radiating from the poster to give you that warm and fuzzy spring feeling. These geometric patterns would look good in any room as a feature piece to liven up your space, and also teams up perfectly alongside your other wall art posters. Due to the subtle yet prominent colour scheme, try accompanying this piece with a simple frame in either black or white.
This poster is recommended for those who feel their room is lacking in accents or those who have already embraced an interior theme featuring pastel colours and wish to take this to the next level.
LITTLE HOME GARDEN
Truly embrace Scandinavian countryside living
This design, with its quirky and lovely flowers placed atop a desk, is inspired by the beautiful houses and gardens found throughout Scandinavia.
In Scandinavia, many people prefer to live a more laid-back lifestyle in a large house in the countryside surrounded by an abundance of nature, rather than living in a high-rise building in the city. Plus, travelling from the countryside to the city for work or play is a lot easier as the urban areas, whilst large, are not the sprawling metropolises you find in other countries.
A Scandinavian home is always beautifully decorated. Many people decorate their homes with various floral arrangements (such as the ones found in this design). One of the most exciting times in Spring is seeing daffodils peep out of the ground or seeing tulips in abundance at the florist. This means Spring in Scandinavia is here.
When the sun comes out after the cold winter, the number of people gardening also dramatically increases. This poster really will really help you incorporate botanicals in your home, which is so integral to Scandinavian life in the spring.
DANISH FIELD
bring the outdoors into your urban apartment with the perfect monochrome poster
This poster depicts the rich countryside found in Denmark. Would you like to feel the vibrant greenery and the warm and crisp breeze of spring, but want to keep your monochrome theme? Then our Danish landscape posters are the perfect compromise.
This spring poster perfectly encapsulates the Danish countryside and would look perfect in any home, especially if you live in an urban area but are yearning for wide and open spaces. Try pairing this print with a wooden frame to really bring that earthy vibe to your room.
This print is especially recommended for those who want to feel the warmth of nature but are unwilling to incorporate bright designs. Who says you can’t embrace Spring while keeping your colour palette monochromatic?
TENERIFE
The perfect way to incorporate spring and summer into your home decor
The modern and vibrant colours of our Tenerife poster is a great way to bring that sense of Spring into your home. It’s also perfect for the summertime! This poster is part of our Spanish summer collection and what better way to get excited for the warming weather than to hang this print on your wall.
The print features abstract forms in pink and yellow, colours that are famously associated with spring, alongside a splash of black. This black accent on the print will help you pair this with your other wall art to create a gallery wall in any room.
Another decorating tip: if you place the framed work on a wooden shelf (as shown in the picture), this will help you attain that Scandi minimalist vibe and is also great for those that cannot hang posters on their walls, such as renters.
Especially recommended for those who like abstract paintings.
ART DE LA VIE
shades of green to bring that sense of rebirth and new life to your walls
This poster is inspired by the cut-out works of the French painter Matisse. "Art De La Vie" translates to "Art of Life" and features a green theme to represent Mother Nature and all she incorporates.
In the springtime, nature, animals and many other things wake up after the long winter. Here in Scandinavia, it’s the time where the snow melts, the birds start chirping again and nature starts to bloom. It’s also the season we as humans start to awaken too. Longer days means more time in the sun and more time to spend in nature.
This spring poster can support the ‘rebirth’ of your life whilst giving your room a calming sense of greenery. Top tip: try framing this print with a black frame to really make the green and white accents really pop.
LIFE BALANCE
Remind yourself of the importance of a balanced life
The springtime signifies a new life beginning but can also bring with it a sense of tension. This could be a tension within the weather, which notoriously fluctuates in Scandinavia, or even just a tension within yourself.
During these times, this poster reminds us of the Scandinavian value of incorporating balance in our daily lives. This is a key aspect found in the Nordic nations and is a reason why the Nordic nations are seen as some of the happiest countries in the world.
Painted in soft shades of grey, pink and black, this poster represents a balance between our private and professional lives. This little design touch can really bring a spring into your step and remind you to focus on what is important every day.
We recommended this poster as a gift for those who may be starting a new chapter of their life or for those that just need a daily reminder to keep their life balanced.
PURPLE HYDRANGEA
bring vivid colours into your space with this stunning poster
This design features a purple hydrangea and creates both an impressive yet mature atmosphere through its use of soft brushstrokes. This flower is extremely popular in Scandinavia, which is why we incorporated it into an art print!
This poster is the perfect antidote to the cold winter months and will look gorgeous in your living room. The vivid purples and pinks will liven up any space and remind you that spring is in the air!
Seeing flowers in poster art is also a soothing way to make you feel at ease, especially if you’re feeling a little stressed in your daily life. Pair this poster with a wooden frame to really embrace that sense of nature, or you could use a black frame to make the petals really pop on your wall.
DANDELION
A great way to embrace spring and the season’s hottest colour: Yellow
Dandelions perfectly represent Spring. This flower really starts to bloom in the Scandinavian spring and its bright yellow colours can be spotted in many gardens. Yellow is the perfect colour to give your house that spring feeling and brighten up your living spaces with a fresh new look.
Our dandelion poster features lovely touches of the warm spring climate. The yellow and grey in the poster blend well together to create this perfect botanical print. The poster also gives off a slightly retro impression, and its versatile design suits both modern and retro-styled rooms.
This print is suitable for all ages and is also perfect for a gift to anyone who wants to really feel those warm spring feelings.
Spring Daisies
refreshing and calming tones to brighten up your walls
Daisies are the perfect flower to represent spring. They are bright and colourful and really can put a smile on your face. This poster was inspired by the blue sky and flowering daisies and is a must-have for spring inspired design. It is both geometric and botanical.
This poster looks great placed in any room you want to add a pop of colour. Try your kitchen or bathroom to add life to these traditionally bare-walled rooms. Another tip: add a white frame (as seen in the picture) to compliment the blue background.
If you want to start a gallery wall, this poster pairs very well with our Spring Tulips poster.
Biking Into Spring
functionality meets chic design in this spring-inspired print
In Scandinavia, biking is integral to the culture. In fact, it’s a necessity here in Copenhagen as a means of transport. Bicycle lanes traverse the city and it’s by far the easiest way to travel around town.
One of the best feelings is to bike around Copenhagen when the sun is shining. After the wintertime, biking in the spring really feels like a slice of heaven.
This poster features a bike with a flower basket on front. The combination of green and pastel pink brings an energetic print and would look fabulous in any room that needs to be livened up to reflect the spring season.
Spring really is the season for new beginnings, healing and growth. And what better way to truly feel this chance than by redecorating your home with a brand-new print. Choose from one of the above posters or see if you can find even more prints from our collections that embrace the Scandinavian springtime. We offer international shipping on all our orders so no matter where you are in the world, you can brighten up your living space with a spring poster.
