Bright historic flat with warm beige walls and custom built-ins

Flooded with natural light, this bright, historic flat (Styled by Anna van Keppel, photographed by Jocke Ono for Historiska Hem) features warm beige walls perfect for decor. The custom-built-ins add functionality and style, perfect for books, decorative items, electronics, and more. 

A Simple, Sophisticated Kitchen

Dark cabinets add a modern contrast to this large kitchen. A pair of contemporary pendant lights hangs above the island, adding light and a dose of elevated style.

A large open shelf bridges the gap between the main upper cabinets against the wall. This creates the perfect place to showcase dishware, vases, cookbooks, and anything else the homeowner dreams up.

High-end materials, such as the stone countertops, lend this lively kitchen a fresh feel. The light hardwood floors play beautifully with the sunlight flooding the space from the large window.

Rather than being a separate space, this open living-kitchen area showcases a convenient kitchen island with seating. It’s a perfect spot for breakfast or a casual meal any time of day or night.

Eclectic Details Punctuate the Living Room

A wide range of built-ins, including lower cabinets and shelving, creates the perfect focal point in this chic living area. The tall, white, columnar fireplace resembles a castle, nodding to the flat’s historic roots.

The neutral sand color makes this space warm and inviting alongside the large upholstered sofa topped with lots of throw pillows. A simple metal-and-glass coffee table serves a purpose without distracting from the living room’s many unique features.

Happy, Harlequin-Inspired Hallway 

Instead of keeping the same hardwood floors here, the hallway features a darling painted floor featuring harlequin-inspired shapes in white and orange-red. The large round wall mirror and hooks add functionality and fun.
