Swedish kitchen design firm Nordiska Kök has teamed up with interior designer wtpstudios to design a classic yet minimalistic kitchen in a historic water tower just outside of Stockholm. The kitchen features warm-stained oak woodwork and a lively arabescato marble. The oak has been stained with a warm cherry tone that matches the floor and mid-century modern furniture, as well as the color scheme of the building itself, which was built in 1910 out of dark red bricks in a national romantic style with arched windows.

The natural pattern of the veins of the marble creates contrast in the otherwise calm and modest kitchen and adds character and personality to the space.
