When you live in a small space, like so many of us do, you find solutions to make it work. This often includes a smart combination of both open and closed storage space so that every object has its place: either stored away or on display in a special spot. The owners of this beautiful Swedish apartment took it to a whole other level and turned their home into a treasure box full of smart space-saving solutions.

The U-shaped kitchen, bedroom, and wardrobe are one module. By the window, you can find the kitchen with concrete countertops and a built-in breakfast bar. On the opposite side of the window, the combination of both open and closed cabinets form the base for the loft bed, which has been added on the second level. Underneath the bed, you have a revolving clothing rail, which can be accessed from the other side.

I love the combination of the plywood, with the smoothened-out white walls and the rough walls in the living room area, this adds a lot of character and personality to the space.

The plywood elements also come back in the hallway, where a vintage entryway wallpaper decorates the other side.
