Modern attic home with amazing custom built-ins

post

This amazing attic apartment for sale in Sweden has a spacious living kitchen with dark wood cabinets, an integrated window seat, and a kitchen island that can seat four people at the same time.

The large dining table stands in between the kitchen and the sunken living room, dividing the majestic living space into three main sections, all styled to perfection with a careful selection of design pieces that complement the original exposed beams underneath the ceiling.

The Japandi-style bedroom is separated from the hallway with a beautiful custom wood sliding door and the spacious bathroom includes a beautiful custom stainless steel top underneath the sloped roof.

The dark wood kitchen cabinets are paired up with a beautiful grey natural stone on the countertop, which also comes back in the custom construction of the waterfall kitchen island in a peninsula formation where four people can sit at the breakfast bar.

The kitchen layout is planned in an L-shape, fitting underneath the sloped ceiling on the left side and including tall storage cabinets in the section where the ceiling is highest. The lower cabinets by the window continue into an elegant window seat with storage modules on top of which a custom seat cushion is applied.

A sunken living room with a custom pink sofa

Right next to the kitchen living space, you can find a sunken living room in front of a beautiful round window. Two oak wood steps blend in with the hardwood flooring of the apartment and provide access to the extraordinary living section.

A small home office space with an A-line roof

One of the rooms has a beautiful A-line roof, which is accentuated by the light wood paneling that is applied to the walls and ceiling in this space. The home office desk with the eye-catching model 548 table lamp from Astep fits perfectly in this setting, providing the space with a lovely pop of color.

The attic bedroom is separated from the hallway with Japandi-inspired sliding doors in a wood tone that matches the color of the original beams underneath the ceiling. The terracotta wall color adds an elegant touch to the bedroom interior, while the low bed frame makes the space appear to have higher ceilings.

The wall color comes back in the single terracotta throw pillow on the bed, which ties the look together in a nice way.

The main bathroom is placed underneath the sloped roof, with walls covered with a beautiful black marble tile for a moody effect that complements the exposed beams in a wonderful way.

Greige walls and a dark grey ceiling

post

This turn-of-the-century home for sale in Sweden has beautiful historic features including elaborate details on the crown molding underneath the ceiling, which have been accentuated by a dark grey paint color, making the ceiling stand out against the greige walls of the living room.

The white kitchen with black countertops is integrated within a small space perfectly, working around an awkward niche space and including a small breakfast bar against the wall.

The minimal master bedroom includes a small home office and the warm greige wall color in the kid’s room makes the subtle playful elements stand out in a powerful way.

The dark grey ceiling in this historic living room makes the design of this entire apartment. The decor is carefully selected and quite minimal, resulting in a balanced layout and color palette that accentuates the bold choice of paint color for the ceiling.

The white sofa combined with the light area rug stands out nicely against the darker wall color, which is decorated with a single art print and a sculptural black wall lamp.

A white kitchen with black countertops and a breakfast bar

The kitchen is placed in a corner layout in a relatively small space, with a combination of lower and upper cabinets for ample storage space. On the wall without any cabinets, a small breakfast bar is attached to the wall. This space wouldn’t be large enough to place a dining table, yet by working with a wall-hung solution, you optimize the kitchen floor plan.

The white kitchen cabinets combined with the black stone countertops provide a beautiful contrast in the space. The historic windows behind the sink are integrated within the kitchen layout and the chrome Moccamaster coffee maker and chrome faucet add a modern touch to the kitchen design.

An old niche space in the wall is perfectly integrated within the kitchen layout by customizing the black countertop inside the niche. The vase and art print is the finishing touch in this corner of the kitchen.

A minimal bedroom with light grey walls

The subtle light grey walls in this minimal black and white bedroom decor are enhanced by a mixture of white and grey bedding and two beautiful black and white wall lamps for reading at night. Since the living room and bedroom are interconnected by these beautiful historic double doors, it’s crucial that the color palettes of both rooms complement each other.

The ceilings of the bedroom are painted white, with white trim, yet the dark pendant light and dark grey curtains add a lot of contrast to the decor.

The space next to the double door in between the bedroom and living room is ideal for a small home office spot. The black desk and leather desk chair contrast nicely against the grey bedroom walls and the crisp white doors, while the white vase, black and white art prints, and white table lamp finish this desk setting off nicely.

A kid’s room with a deep greige wall color

The kid’s room can be reached from the kitchen and I love that this space has the darkest color in the entire interior. The subtle white bedding and the striped side table stand out against the dark greige wall color and the selection of art prints adds a subtle yet fun element to the setting.

A hallway with ceiling-high storage modules

When you live in a historic apartment with high ceilings, you better take advantage of it in terms of storage space. The hallway of this beautiful apartment is the ideal spot for a ceiling-high wardrobe that provides the entire apartment with lots of storage space.

A turn-of-the-century apartment with a walk-in closet office

post

The walk-in closet office makes this spacious and light-flooded turn-of-the-century apartment (for sale via Entrance Makleri) unique, yet the other rooms’ design elements are also worth mentioning. The spacious living room with light grey walls includes an elegant TV gallery wall and a beautiful crystal chandelier that matches the ornate historic elements in the space.

The two-tone kitchen includes black cabinets on the bottom and white ones on the top for a light yet contrasting look that is matched by a kitchen island and a dining table by the window.

The darker grey bedroom has a unique walk-in closet that includes a cozy home office with yellow walls and the gorgeous hallway has a beautiful chequered floor paired up with an elegant sage green paint color on the walls.

The light grey living room walls are decorated with an impressive gallery wall that spreads over two walls and includes the TV. The rest of the interior is kept minimal so the combination of art prints on the wall gets all the attention. The crystal chandelier stands out underneath these high ceilings and the details match the ornate crown molding.

The black kitchen cabinets paired up with warm wood countertops provide the kitchen with a contrasting look that comes back in the black bentwood dining chairs as well. To keep a light layout, the upper cabinets were picked out in white to blend into the white walls.

A spacious grey bedroom with a walk-in closet office

The bedroom has a darker grey wall color than the living room, giving it a slightly more moody look. The custom walk-in closet includes a home office space and storage space in a more narrow area. By painting this custom module in the same color as the wall, it perfectly blends in with the rest of the interior.

A grey bedroom with walk-in closet office

The ladder to reach the top of the closet and the headboard behind the bed have both been painted in the same color as the walls for a tone-on-tone look that makes the white crown molding stand out in a nice way.

Duplex apartment with a steel staircase

post

This wonderful apartment in Sweden is located in an old industrial building with large black windows that let in an abundance of daylight that spreads throughout the space. The ceilings are so high in fact, that the area above the kitchen could be turned into a loft level that is accessible by a modern metal staircase.

While the bottom level includes a spacious living room, dining room section, and a contemporary kitchen with dark oak kitchen cabinets, when you walk up the stairs, you can find a spacious bedroom and home office spot.

A sofa area with lots of plants in front of the impressive window

The area in front of the large window is an ideal spot for the grey sofa that is decorated with a mixture of throw pillows and two fabric poufs on top of a light beige area rug. The window sill and floor space next to the sofa are used for a combination of various plants that must thrive with the amount of sunlight that comes in.

A minimal white sideboard is spread along the wall next to the sofa, where the TV is included in a gallery wall. This approach makes the TV less apparent in the interior and the long sideboard provides the apartment with extra closed storage space.

A kitchen and dining area with a combination of different wood tones

The dark oak kitchen cabinets combined with the black faucet and the beige stone countertop contrast nicely against the white walls in this loft home. The round dining table with the walnut chairs adds a perfect spot for dining right next to the kitchen, yet it doesn’t take up too much space in the apartment either.

A kitchen with dark oak cabinets and a round dining table

The combination of the green round table, the walnut dining chairs and the dark wood open shelving behind it works nicely on top of the light hardwood flooring. The mixture of artwork on the wall and the sculptural pendant light finishes the look off perfectly.

A bedroom and home office space on the second level

Underneath the curved ceilings of this loft home, you can find a spacious bedroom and home office with a custom built-in wardrobe that turns into a floating desk.

The area next to the bed is finished off with custom curtains that fill the space in between the metal beams. The curtains and custom-built cabinets really finish the look off nicely and hide away the awkward nooks and crannies the old walls of the building create.

The modern metal staircase enhances the industrial look and feel of the space and continues over into a metal banister that separates the second level. I love the contrast between the dark oak wood of the kitchen, the soft beige curtains, and the black metal of the stairs. These three different materials complement each other beautifully.

The built-in wardrobe continues into a floating desk that can be used by two people simultaneously. The computer display is attached to the wall, which frees up desk space and gives the home office a finished and clean look.

The area where the floating desk touches the wardrobe is turned into open shelving, which is ideal for keeping office supplies.

The custom-built wardrobe follows the curves on the ceiling and is constructed out of the same material as the cabinets in the kitchen for a cohesive look.

An elegant hallway with storage behind a curtain

The hallway includes a wardrobe that is hidden behind a custom curtain. This is an easy way to hide storage opportunity and by applying the curtains wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling, the space looks very finished and elegant.

The combination of the mirror with the white metal frame and the small table attached to the wall turns this space into an elegant hallway section.

Modern summer house with white shiplap walls

post

This gorgeous modern summer house in Sweden has the traditional Swedish red outside walls, yet the large windows and modern structure give it a contemporary look. The interior is fitted with white shiplap walls in all the rooms, which matches the outside walls. The concrete tile flooring in the downstairs area adds a contrasting element to the white walls and the elegant mixture of modern and classic furniture pieces makes for an elegant interior.

Upstairs, you can find a bedroom and an office space, which looks out on the balcony from which you can oversee the beautiful lake. The outdoor area includes two patios: one for lounging and one with an outdoor dining table.

The tall and narrow windows in the living room look out onto the impressive green trees outside, which is an element that also comes back in the green indoor plants spread throughout the space.

The white fabric sofa combined with the contemporary coffee table in a dark wood tone that sits on a natural rug fits wonderfully in the interior.

Above the TV, open shelving is applied, which has an impressive effect on the sofa area. I love the way the dark tones in the accessories stand out against the white walls and shelving.

A black metal fireplace is surrounded by a white structure, with added storage space for firewood, which makes for an interesting element that cozies up the look.

The round dining table with the oak dining chairs fits perfectly in between the sofa area and the kitchen and looks out over the outdoor dining area. The amphora with the rubber tree fits perfectly into the corner by the windows,

A wood kitchen with an open ceiling

Even though the wood kitchen is a bit dated, it does fit nicely against the white shiplap walls and the grey tile floor. The second floor doesn’t extend over the kitchen area, which allows for an impressive ceiling height that is accentuated by the many double-height windows.

A small and cozy bedroom with a minimal look

The bedroom is minimal yet cozy, with the shiplap bedroom walls defining the small space. The floating shelf above the bed adds a subtle spot to the look for displaying small accessories and books.

A two-person workspace looking out over the lake

In the area between the balcony and the railing that looks out over the kitchen, you can find a two-person workspace with a storage module in the middle and a beautiful pinboard on the wall.

On the second level of the home, the hardwood flooring has been painted white just like the walls, which gives this space an all-white impression. Since the desk and storage module are also white, this makes the wooden chairs stand out in a lovely way.

Storage underneath the staircase

The area underneath the staircase is used for a sideboard and wall storage, which is a great optimization of this otherwise lost space.

Spacious outside lounge areas to enjoy the Swedish summer

The area underneath the upstairs balcony is a great spot for a large dining table. This way, the outdoor spot is protected from rain and the chain lights add extra coziness to the setting.

Open-plan loft home with high ceilings

post

This beautiful Swedish loft apartment has impressive windows that let in an abundance of natural light flooding the spacious interior. The dark hardwood flooring is contrasted by white walls throughout the entire apartment, which makes the perfect backdrop for the subtle furniture pieces and accessories in a modest color palette.

The large living space includes a modest white kitchen, a spacious dining table with an impressive bookshelf, and a subtle sofa area with a large tree in front of the window.

When walking up towards the master bedroom, you can find a small home office that is separated from the rest of the space with a glass partition with a white metal frame.

A dining room area with an impressive bookshelf

The long rectangular dining table with black wishbone chairs is set apart from the white walls and the big white bookshelf that is placed against the wall. The hemp rug underneath the dining table adds a natural tone to the setting and the mixture of books and accessories in neutral tones on the bookshelf provides the space with an elegant yet subtle appearance.

The subtle color palette and interior setting in the sofa area accentuate the high ceiling and big windows in a beautiful way and I love the way the big artwork, the large tree, and the floor lamp work together in this setting. The natural color palette is enhanced by orange and brown tones in the throw pillows for a subtle warm tone in the look.

A minimal white kitchen with a breakfast bar

The minimal white kitchen cabinets have a very modest effect on the space and the full wall of upper and lower cabinets blends into the white walls of the apartment. The kitchen island with the breakfast bar is a great addition as an extra spot for sitting, however, it also functions as a visual separator between the kitchen and living area in this open-plan interior.

A home office space separated by a glass wall

Next to the living kitchen, you can find a small home office space that is separated from the rest of the apartment with a glass wall whit a white metal frame. The dark flooring contrasts nicely with the white walls and the white metal frame, while a subtle color palette of soft furnishings and accessories creates a balanced interior look to work from home.

The dark hardwood flooring, white walls, and white curtains form the perfect canvas for the beige, brown, and mustard tones in the textiles on the bed and the beautiful mustard area rug covers a large portion of the bedroom floor.

You can find a second desk beside the smaller bedroom window so two people can work from home simultaneously. The yellow and mustard tones in the artwork complement the colors of the fabrics and soft furnishings on and around the bed, while the aluminum desk lamp adds a modern twist to the setting.

White walls and white floors finished off with lots of art prints

post

This crisp white apartment has white walls and white floors, which form the perfect blank canvas for the impressive gallery walls that decorate both the dining and the living room and add a unique and personalized element to the interior. The two rooms are connected to each other, which makes it even more apparent how the two decor styles of each room are similar.

The bedroom shares the same minimal white decor style as the living area, yet the hallway is painted in a light grey color, which accentuates the lack of natural light in this space. The bathroom has a dramatic look with dark glossy tiles that stands out against the crisp white decor in the rest of the interior.

A living room with white walls and white floors as the perfect backdrop

The living and dining rooms are connected by beautiful French doors. In the living room, a simple white fabric sofa combined with a black and white area rug and a glass coffee table sets the stage for a simple look that is enhanced by art prints, a walnut TV module, and black accent pieces.

The gallery wall above the sofa decorates the white walls and makes the space unique. Two single art prints above the TV module add a point of interest in this section along with the elegant black wall lamp.

The Ikea Billy bookshelves behind the sofa are great for a home library and decor pieces. Since the living room is spacious enough, there is enough floor space to allow for white space between the sofa and the bookshelves.

A narrow hallway with a custom mudroom bench

A niche space in the hallway is the perfect spot for a custom mudroom bench with cubbies for shoes and a top shelf for extra storage space. The light grey paint color used on the hallway wall is used on the custom mudroom bench, which makes it blend in.

The round mirror reflects the daylight coming in from the adjacent rooms and the grey String system module is great for storing accessories in the hallway. The white marble tile flooring adds a beautiful texture and finishes off the hallway space nicely.

A rustic loft apartment with exposed beams

post

The black and white decor in this rustic loft apartment complements the beautiful exposed wood beams and the natural wood tone they provide to the interior look. The limewash walls in the entire space give the walls a soft and elegant beige tone that makes the furniture pieces and accessories stand out in a lovely way.

The living room is located on the second level of the loft, where the A-roof makes it rather challenging to place large furniture pieces. On the lower level, you can find a beautiful white kitchen and a cozy bedroom decorated in beige and brown tones. The staircase towards the second level is fully optimized for integrated storage modules underneath it.

optimizing the interior to the sloped ceilings in the living room

Since sloped ceilings are present on both sides of the living room, the sofa section is placed in the middle, where the ceilings are highest. The area in front of the balcony window is great for a small living room home office spot, while the lower ceiling areas are perfect for wall shelving and a subtle floor lamp.

The white fabric sofa is paired with a rustic black coffee table and a black and white area rug that provides a lot of texture to the interior of this rustic loft apartment. The wall behind the sofa is used for a black storage module, which adds a lot of contrast against the beige limewash walls and the white sofa.

A beige and brown color palette in the bedroom

Just like in the rest of this rustic loft apartment, the walls of the bedroom are painted with beige limewash paint. The sheer beige and white curtains warm up the light coming in from the window, resulting in a soft and cozy setting. The beige and white textiles, combined with the brown tones in the decoration fan above the bed and the bedside lamps add a lot of depth to the color palette.

A sage green color palette in a spacious Swedish apartment

post

This beautiful Swedish apartment with different floor types in every single room has a beautiful sage green color palette that freshens up the white base palette in the interior. The sage green kitchen is built in a galley layout, with an indoor window looking out over the hallway which includes a small home office.

The sage green bedroom on the other side of the apartment matches the color palette perfectly and provides the space with an elegant backdrop from which the warm tones in the textiles and bedside tables stand out.

A combination of lower and upper cabinets fill the left side, while the right side includes lower modules only for a lighter look that is paired up with a wall shelf in wood.

The light-flooded kitchen with white walls and white floors is finished off with a small round bistro table, a white bench, and two natural wood dining chairs. This spot by the window is perfect for having dinner and by stopping the kitchen layout where the doorway starts, there is still ample space available for the table.

The living room lies in between the bedroom and the kitchen, which are both decorated in a sage-green color palette. To balance things out, the decor of the living room is kept simple and neutral, which pairs nicely with the white walls.

The herringbone flooring in the bedroom is paired up with white-soaped hardwood flooring in the bedroom and the white-painted floors in the kitchen for a lot of variation in floor texture.

The bedroom is painted in a beautiful sage-green wall color, from which the white floorboards and the white trim underneath the ceiling stand out. The bedroom is decorated in a modest way, with sheer white curtains and white bedding standing out against the darker sage-green color on the walls.

Soft wood tones and beige and terracotta tones in the textiles warm up the color palette, while the black wall lamps add some contrast to the setting.

A hallway with floating shelves and a home office spot

The spacious hallway includes a mudroom with storage for jackets and shoes, a bookshelf, and a small section to work from home which gets indirect daylight from the indoor kitchen window.

On the other side of the indoor kitchen window, you can find a hallway space with a home office spot, that is separated from the rest of the hallway by painting this section light grey. The white desk includes two top shelves for storing plants and office supplies, which is a great combined solution for small spaces.

A niche space in between two door frames is the perfect spot for wall shelving to store both books and accessories. This shelf changes the total appearance of the hallway and makes it more unique.

A living kitchen with natural wood kitchen cabinets

The beautiful and spacious living kitchen in this Swedish apartment has a color palette that revolves around the beautiful kitchen module with natural wood cabinets combined with an elegant beige limestone countertop. The living and dining area has a complementary color scheme with natural wood tones combined with beiges, greys, and some black accents for a warm and natural color palette.

The bedroom has a darker grey wall color with a magenta undertone, which is paired up with green wardrobe doors for an interesting color palette. The green wardrobe fronts also come back in the spacious hallway with a lot of storage space.

The beautiful natural wood kitchen is spread over the entire wall of this living kitchen, leaving out the need for upper cabinets altogether and thus creating a lighter look. The range hood front is painted in the same beige color as the wall so it blends in and the open shelving provides a great spot for storing pretty kitchen accessories and appliances.

The beige limestone countertops and backsplash finish the kitchen look off nicely and provide it with a high-end touch. The chrome hardware adds a modern touch to the setting.

A round dining table with natural wood bentwood chairs

The area near the two windows is a prime spot for the round dining table, which is paired up with natural bentwood chairs that match the wood tone on the kitchen cabinets. The elegant fabric pendant light above the table adds a subtle texture to the setting.

A cozy sofa area with lots of textiles

The beige walls in the living room section provide the space with the perfect backdrop for the darker beige linen curtains and the many different textiles on the beige sofa, area rug, and throw pillows. The beige marble coffee tables pair up nicely with the limestone countertops in the kitchen.

The sculptural ceiling light is a real eye-catcher in the space and I love the way it stands out against the darker tone of the beige curtains.

Dark grey walls and green wardrobe doors in the bedroom

While the living kitchen has a light and warm color palette, the bedroom has a bit more of a dramatic look because of the darker grey wall color. The beautiful magenta undertones in the paint color add a cool tone to the room, which is warmed up by the beige textiles, the beige tones in the artwork, and the beautiful oak peg rails next to the bed.

A wardrobe module on each side of the door provides this long and narrow bedroom with just enough storage space to keep the essential pieces of clothing in the bedroom.

A spacious hallway with lots of storage space

Since the bedroom is too small for adding a big wardrobe, the big hallway offers a great alternative for providing the apartment with lots of storage space. The Ikea PAX wardrobe modules are fitted with the same green doors as the ones in the bedroom and on each side of the modules, you can find an open bookshelf module great for displaying decor pieces or storing shoes.

The wall-hung coat rack with shoe storage on the opposite side of the hallway provides a great spot for shoes and jackets that are currently in use.
