Warm grey walls in a small and cozy apartment

The warm grey walls in this cozy one-bedroom apartment in Sweden provide the interior design with the perfect soft backdrop that brings out the white trim and white ceilings. The warm grey paint color is combined with a plethora of white and off-white fabrics and a variety of warm neutrals to finish off the look and complement the warm wood color of the flooring.

The living kitchen contains a small kitchen module that contains the sink and hood and a larger storage module by the dining table. The warm grey kitchen cabinets are a bit warmer than the wall color, which makes for a nice effect that is enhanced by the brass hardware and the warm tones in the terracotta plant pots on the counter.

While the contrast is not as strong as in a kitchen with white cabinets and a black countertop, it still has a beautiful effect in the space, especially because of the warm grey wall color.

White and beige soft furnishings brighten up the warm grey paint color

While the living space gets a bit of a darker touch because of the warm grey wall color, this has been balanced out by the selection of white fabrics spread throughout the sofa area in the living space.

The wall-to-wall sheer white curtains frame the window nicely and add a lot of coziness to the space. The white fabric sofa (with a Bemz custom cover*) combined with the off-white wool area rug forms the perfect white backdrop for the two oak coffee tables and the oak bookshelf which finishes off the living room nicely.

The simple oak dining chairs and the warm beige tones in the art prints on the warm grey walls warm up the dining room area. This color palette brings out the warm tones in the hardwood flooring, which aren’t covered by an area rug in this section of the living space.

Grey walls with yellow undertones in the bedroom

The bedroom has a grey color on the walls with a bit more yellow undertones than the warm grey walls in the living room. This wall color has a fresh effect on the space and brings out the white ceiling and trim in a nice way.

The white curtains on the window, the white bedding, and the white area rug underneath the bed brighten up the color palette of the room, while the gold and glass wall lamps add an elegant touch.

Since the bedroom is not that spacious, the Ikea PAX wardrobe modules have been spread over two different walls by the doorway. This way the view towards the window is not obstructed while offering enough space to store clothes.
