The blue bedroom wall color stands out powerfully in this beautiful turn-of-the-century home in Sweden (Photographed by Henrik Linden for Alvhem). The blue paint color pops out in the interior and can be seen from the living room.
The living room with warm grey walls is decorated modestly, making the white historic details stand out. Through the historic double interior doors, the blue bedroom walls take all the attention. The subtle design of the kitchen with grey shaker cabinets is enhanced with a cozy breakfast nook by the dining table.
The bedroom features a custom-built wardrobe spread over the entire bedroom wall. It fits around the doorway, allowing for optimal integration in the space. The wardrobe is painted in the same color as the walls, for a tone-on-tone effect in the space.
A living room with warm grey walls and natural decor
Since a lovely pop of color is coming from the bedroom, the color palette of the living room is kept quite modest. The natural palette includes a warm grey wall color, an off-white sofa and area rug, and a variety of wood tones spread throughout the space.
One of the living room walls features an open shelf with black brackets, paired with a standing mirror with a black metal frame around it.
The TV is attached to the wall in between two doorways, paired with a storage module that fits the wall space perfectly.
A vintage crate attached to the wall provides an original spot for storing firewood right next to the white porcelain fireplace in the corner.
A grey shaker kitchen with a cozy breakfast nook
The kitchen is fitted mostly on one side of the floor plan, allowing an area on the other side for a small dining table. Since only limited space is available, a breakfast nook provides the perfect solution for optimizing the space available.
The light grey shaker cabinets are paired with a quartz countertop, chrome hardware, and stainless steel appliances for a mix of classic and modern aesthetics.
Next to the kitchen doorway, you can find a coffee station with a Moccamaster coffee maker, which is conveniently located right next to the seating bench of the breakfast nook.
A blue bedroom with a tone-on-tone wardrobe
The blue bedroom walls are a true focal point in the apartment. The dark paint color makes the white crown molding and the light color palette in the textiles stand out.
The bedroom wardrobe is built wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling. By painting it with the same blue paint color, it has a very integrated effect and blends in with the rest of the space. A painting and a mirror above the bed break the wall surface of the bedroom.
A vintage dresser is painted in the same blue as well, which is a nice touch in the bedroom reading corner.
The wardrobe is fully customized to the space. The doorway is integrated inside the structure, which allows for the entire wall surface to be optimally used for storage.
LED lighting inside the wardrobe makes the content easily visible in low light.
