Home tour- A Swedish inspired home in Dallas, Texas!

Once a dark, two-story Georgian house, this home is now flooded in sunlight and filled with pale
European furnishings. This gorgeous home belongs to designer Shannon Bowers of Dallas, Texas. Inspired by colors of nature, the soft color palettes and understated elegance of painted Swedish furniture and light shades of flooring in many European homes, Shannon created a home that is refined yet unpretentious. Let's take a look.

Shannon's home look cohesive and beautiful with the use of a consistent color palette throughout the house. The result is a home that feels cozy, inviting and calming. What are your thoughts? Which room are you most drawn to? Are you a fan of this decorating style?

    It looks stunning and I love ALL the furniture, but I'd just need to throw in a couple of comfy sofas and maybe the odd personal touch, so that it doesn't look quite so perfect.

    So light and airy. Love lots of the pieces and think you could incorporate many of them into a different style home. M.

    I'm a total fan of Swedish decor! The light-filled rooms with white walls, floors and furniture appeal to my senses . . .

    I love the pops of color and the fusion of a green and blue combo is calming as well as effective.
