Steal This Look: A Scandinavian-Inspired Bedroom in Denver

Located in Denver’s historic neighborhood of Washington Park, a new build by Emily and Brad Gunlock of Gunlock Homes balances architectural clarity with a sense of ease. The main bedroom, refined yet personal, carries the imprint of Swedish designer Rebecca Bash, whose ceiling of slender timber panels lends a Scandinavian cadence. Here we detail some of the key elements within and offer sources for each.
