Nestled in a tranquil courtyard adorned with plum trees in the heart of Stockholm, a delightful one-bedroom apartment awaits.
This 58 square meter gem, although modest in size, boasts a generously proportioned living room complete with a dedicated home office and a delightfully snug kitchen that exudes a cottage-like charm.
In true Scandinavian fashion, the owners have opted for a light and airy color palette, which seamlessly complements the stunning wooden flooring and meticulously preserved original features from the 1920s.
From the character-filled windows to the enchanting mirror doors and the quaint pantry, every element speaks to the apartment’s rich history.
The neutral backdrop, enhanced by the original details and warm wooden floorboards, is elevated by the introduction of soft, light green accents that grace the bedroom and kitchen.
These subtle pops of color infuse the space with a refreshing and inviting ambiance.
The living room is a true haven, featuring two slatted windows that offer a picturesque view of the courtyard below.
Despite the room’s unique angled layout, there is ample space for a plush sofa and a dedicated area for reading or working from home.
The walls, painted in the soothing ‘Stockholm White’ hue from Kultur Hantverkarna, contribute to the room’s serene and welcoming atmosphere.
A generously sized nook within the living room has been transformed into a functional workspace and cozy reading corner.
Here, the light green accents that echo throughout the bedroom and kitchen make a delightful appearance.
The bedroom, situated adjacent to the living room, may be compact in size but it offers just enough space for a comfortable double bed and ample storage in the form of wardrobes.
The room’s tranquil ambiance is enhanced by the soothing light green hue that adorns the walls.
While the bedroom may not accommodate traditional bedside tables, a cleverly placed shelf, painted in the same calming green as the walls, provides a practical storage solution without compromising on style.
The kitchen, undoubtedly the heart of this charming apartment, underwent a renovation three years ago.
The result is a stunning space featuring sleek cabinets with light gray fronts, a sophisticated light stone worktop, and elegant brass fittings.
A spacious pantry adds to the kitchen’s functionality and charm.
The same light green shade that graces the bedroom walls makes a stunning appearance in the kitchen.
This carefully curated color was chosen by the owner to perfectly complement the way the light filters through the leafy tree canopy outside the window, creating an enchanting interplay of nature and interior design.
The half-laid white tiles that extend to the ceiling, paired with the stunning brass fittings, imbue the kitchen with a timeless and classic aesthetic that is sure to endure.
This captivating apartment, with its thoughtful styling by Lindholm and exquisite photography by Boukari for Historiska Hem, is a testament to the power of Scandinavian design principles.
It effortlessly combines functionality, warmth, and a respect for the past to create a truly inviting and memorable living space.
