This beautiful turn-of-the-century Swedish apartment (for sale via Skandia Maklarna) is flooded with daylight coming through those tall windows. The light wood floor and the ornate moldings on the ceiling, door frames, and windows stay true to the history of the building, while the light grey wall color adds an elegant touch to the space.
To match the color of the walls, the shaker cabinets in the kitchen have been picked out in the same light grey color for a modest look that is minimal yet elegant at the same time.
Light wood tones in the dining area in front of the windows
The spacious living space contains both a dining and a lounge area. The spot between the two large windows has been reserved for a large dining table combined with light oak CH24 wishbone chairs that match perfectly with the color of the hardwood floor.
The arched mirror on the wall in between the two windows works wonderfully in this spot and the black table legs, black metal chandelier, and black accessories stand out in this white and natural color palette.
A living room with a statement dusty pink fluffy area rug
Right next to the dining area, you can find a lounge space with tints of beige on the sofa and in the soft furnishings. What sets the design of this living area apart is the pink fluffy area rug that also comes back in the nude pink throw pillows on the sofa.
The warm wood tones in the armchair and the combination of brown and beige tones in the artwork on the wall finish this section off nicely and give it a bit more depth.
Light grey cabinets in a kitchen with an angled floorplan
The kitchen has light grey cabinets that match the wall color for an elegant and minimal tone-on-tone effect. The floor plan of the kitchen is quite a challenging one, yet by placing lower cabinets on either side of the space and following the angled wall towards the window, the designer came up with a balanced layout that looks light since there are no upper cabinets on the wall.
The light grey kitchen cabinets have a subtle shaker design, which gives them a classy touch, while still maintaining a minimal look. The stainless steel hardware and faucet and the black details add contrast to the subtle grey kitchen cabinets and the white marble countertops finish this elegant look off nicely.
A breakfast bar has been built in next to the sink and a small dining table has been added right next to the kitchen window. The round black table adds some more contrast to the light grey kitchen cabinets, while the light wood Thonet bentwood chairs complement the classy touch of the shaker cabinets.
Light grey walls and a bedroom wardrobe in the same color
The neutral color scheme has been continued in the bedroom, where the same light grey paint color is used both on the walls and on the custom-built wardrobe, which uses the same shaker cabinets as the ones in the kitchen.
The wall-to-wall white curtains combined with white bedding add a lot of texture to the space, while the black rattan bedside tables stand out against the grey and white walls. The black details in the artwork add some character and the subtle gold hardware on the shaker cabinets of the wardrobe finish this elegant bedroom look off nicely. The double interior doors frame the bedroom style in a perfect way.
A beige tile floor and wall in the bathroom
The minimal yet elegant look has been continued in the bathroom, where beige tiles cover both the walls and floor for a smooth look. The clean lines of the freestanding tub and the chrome fittings give the space a modern look and the natural oak cabinetry adds more warmth to the interior design of the space. The horizontal shower niche extends over towards the bathroom for extra depth added to the bathroom design.
The guest bathroom is finished with a beautiful hexagon floor tile in white marble for an interesting texture in this small space with white walls.
