This beautiful light-flooded apartment has a greige paint color on most of the walls in the different rooms, giving the interior a soft look that goes so nicely with the light hardwood flooring, the white trim, and the white used on the door and window frames.

A greige paint color on the walls in the living room accentuates the brown fireplace

The beautiful greige paint color on the walls in the living room adds a subtle warmth to the interior that brings out the beautiful details in the brown historic fireplace. The white sofa combined with beige and brown accessories and throw pillows match this warm palette, while the green plants add a fresh touch.

The greige paint color doesn’t go all the way up to the ceiling, leaving a white trim that seems to be about as high as the floorboards. The white Ikea Besta cabinet stands out against this wall color, while the brown tones in the armchair and decor pieces add a bit more depth to the palette.

The dining table in front of the main window in the living room is the ideal spot for having dinner, as it gets those beautiful rays of sunlight.

A modest white kitchen with a subway tile backsplash

The kitchen is a bit dated, yet with the addition of the white subway tile backsplash and the solid wood countertops it can stand the test of time. The plants and botanical art prints on the wall next to the window add a nice touch and cozy up this kitchen design.

Subtle and lighter greige paint color in a light palette bedroom

The greige bedroom walls are a bit lighter and more subtle, yet since the bedroom can be seen from the living room, the colors complement each other nicely. The light greige wall color brings out the white elements and makes them stand out.

The white historic fireplace and the white wardrobe module are set apart from the background wall color and a simple bird art print adds a pop of color to this room.

A brown tone in the hallway

The hallway is quite a dark space since it only receives indirect daylight from the other rooms. This darkness is accentuated with a darker wall color that brings out the white elements in such a nice way. The white-painted vintage drawer cabinet really stands out against this wall color and I like the combination with the shell lamp and the two subtle art frames above it.

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.

Warm grey walls and warm grey kitchen cabinets

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.

Even though the walls of this beautiful Swedish apartment have been painted white exclusively, the black kitchen cabinets and the colorful furniture pieces and accessories add a lot f character and personality to this interior.

The black kitchen cabinets can be seen from the open doorway of the living room and they add so much contrast to an otherwise light interior, which has been enhanced by subtle pops of color and a bold combination of patterns in the living room.

Black kitchen cabinets and a subtle pop of color

The black kitchen adds a lot of contrast to this kitchen interior with white walls and white-soaped hardwood flooring. The black kitchen cabinets are spread on both the top and bottom of the L-shaped layout, leaving the space by the window available for a beautiful round dining table.

The off-white stone countertops complement the black cabinets and the white walls nicely and the black hardware is so subtle it’s barely noticeable on the black kitchen cabinets.

The round dining table with the oak dining chairs is neutral in color, yet by adding a bright orange pendant light above the table and a small colorful gallery wall on the white walls, this dining room area becomes so interesting.

The black kitchen cabinets can be seen from the living room, and add contrast to the entire interior.

An eclectic mix of colors and patterns in the living room

While the rest of the apartment has been decorated in a rather subtle way, the living room has a bolder look. The area rug and lounge chair resonate a seventies vibe, mixed in with modern and mid-century modern elements for an interesting combination.

The TV has been integrated into a gallery wall, which makes it stand out less and the plant in the corner finishes the look off with a lovely touch of greenery.

A minimal white bedroom with an eye-catching artwork

While the design of the bedroom is cozy yet minimal, the artwork inside the ornate gold frame adds a true eye-catcher to the space. The light beige bed linen and the subtle bed frame blend into the minimal space, while the blue of the artwork comes back in the blue candle holder on the bedside table.

A large mirror to make the hallway appear bigger

A small wall in between the front door and the living room creates a small hallway area, however, by covering this wall section with. a full-size mirror, it reflects the hallway and makes it appear bigger.

The modern loft kitchen in this beautiful, majestic turn-of-the-century apartment in Sweden separates the bedroom and the living room from each other. The old doorway that used to separate both rooms has been removed to create an open-space floor plan that is much alike modern lofts, yet with so much ornate historic detailing in the architecture.

A loft kitchen functions as a room divider

The walls of the majestic living space have all been painted white, which draws attention to how high the ceilings are and how spacious this space really is. The modern dark grey loft kitchen stands out so nicely against the backdrop of the white walls, resulting in a contrast in color and in the time period for an impressive effect.

The loft kitchen consists of a main block behind which the bedroom is located and a kitchen island in the middle that has been fitted in between the impressive historic doorway. Two large modules on each side hold bigger appliances, while the middle part of the kitchen is fitted with indented upper cabinets with a beautiful LED strip underneath it that enhances the modern effect of the loft kitchen in the space.

The matt dark grey material has been used on the kitchen cabinets, sides, and worktop for an elegant and minimal effect.

A spacious living and dining room with a natural color palette

The interior of the living space has been decorated with classics in a natural color palette and a few black pieces for contrast against the white walls.

The large dining table in front of the bay windows works perfectly in harmony with the black wishbone chairs and the round mirror on the wall reflects the spacious room and makes it appear even bigger.

An old doorway has been transformed into a bookshelf including a spot for the TV, which is such an elegant solution for hiding away electronics when they are not in use.

A bedroom hidden behind the loft kitchen

Behind the loft kitchen, you can find a minimally decorated bedroom. The backside of the kitchen is used for storage on the bedroom side as well, making it such a versatile module.

A built-in wardrobe has been hidden behind glass sliding doors, which has quite a modern effect in the space.

A small yet modern bathroom with grey tiles

While the apartment has many historic features, the bathroom follows the design of the modern loft kitchen with its grey tiles, mirrored walls, and chrome fittings.

This beautiful flat in Sweden has very subtle light grey walls in the living room and a warmer off-white wall color in the bedroom for a subtle backdrop that is enhanced with beautiful accessories in neutral colors and fresh green plants that add a bright color to the space without being overpowering.

The subtle, light wall colors bring out the turn-of-the-century qualities of the apartment in a beautiful way.

Light grey walls combined with warm tones and fresh greens in the living room

The light grey walls in this light-flooded living room bring out the white floorboards, crown molding, and sheer white curtains in front of the window in such a subtle yet elegant way. The off-white linen sofa with a Bemz custom cover* combined with the textural area rug and a variety of throw pillows on the sofa have a very cozy and inviting effect in the space.

An oak wood coffee table and a brown velvet lounge chair add subtle warm tones to the pale tone of the white-soaped hardwood flooring.

The subtle gallery wall above the sofa matches the overall color palette of the furniture and fabrics in the interior.

An Ikea Ivar cabinet painted in the same color as the light grey walls with black legs makes for the perfect low-budget sideboard solution next to the dining table. The legs lift the cabinet up to just right above the floorboards, while the cabinets themselves merge with the walls for a subtle effect.

The large dining table with the &Tradition Betty chairs in light oak and the beige linen tablecloth complement the light grey walls perfectly and the XL rice paper shade works well in between the dining and sofa area.

The XL round mirror reflects the living room in a wonderful way and adds an interesting focal point above the dining table.

A white kitchen with black countertops and a white brick wall

The white kitchen cabinets are contrasted with a black granite countertop for a contrasting effect that resembles the black and white tiles on the floor. The sliding barn door and the white-painted brick backsplash give this space a farmhouse look and feel, which is matched by the design of the appliances and hardware in the IKEA Bodbyn kitchen.

A vintage white glass cabinet holds plates and cups, which is a nice addition for extra storage in this rather small kitchen.

The kitchen is compact and spread from wall to wall, yet it has ample storage space and two surfaces for cutting and preparing food. The black hood contrasts nicely against the white-painted brick wall and the white open shelving adds a spot for adding a selection of kitchen accessories on display.

The black fridge works well in this black-and-white setting and the small bistro table combined with stools adds an extra spot for having breakfast in the morning.

A small nursery with white brick walls

Right next to the kitchen, you can find a mall nursery, which has been decorated with bright yellow curtains to add a warm and soft element to the white-painted brick walls. A vintage desk adds character to this space and also provides the room with home office functionality.

Off-white bedroom walls with a butter-yellow duvet cover

The bedroom walls have been painted in a slightly more yellow tone than the light grey walls in the living room, giving the space a warmer base. Just like in the living room, an Ikea Ivar cabinet can be found next to the bed for extra storage, which has been painted in the same off-white color as the walls.

The butter-yellow duvet cover complements the wall color in a lovely way, while the green plants add a fresh touch, similar to the effect achieved in the living room.

The large textile lamp above the bed adds a soft and sculptural look to the interior, which in my opinion is an ideal vibe for a calming bedroom design.

Even though the bedroom wall behind the wardrobe is not even, the wardrobe modules were built in a straight line in front of it to even out the look. The white wardrobe stands out in a subtle way from the off-white bedroom walls and since it doesn’t extend up to the ceiling, you can still see the crown molding very well.

This beautiful turn-of-the-century home in Sweden has white walls in every single room, which reflect the natural light coming in through those large windows.

The deep wood color of the herringbone flooring contrasts nicely with the white paint color on the walls, windows, door frames, and ceilings and the interior has been decorated with large white pieces, combined with subtle wood tones throughout.

A spacious living room with white walls

The living room lies in between the kitchen and the bedroom and is the most spacious room in the apartment. The sofas and the white area rug form the perfect white backdrop for the simple wood side tables and the sideboard, which both add a subtle yet warm touch to the color palette.

Added style to a dated Ikea kitchen

The white kitchen might be slightly dated, yet the stainless steel countertops give it a rather modern appearance which is enhanced by the wonderful selection of accessories on the countertop and on the open shelving. By switching out the faucet to a modern one, the kitchen gets an updated look as well.

White walls and built-in open shelving in the dining area

The white walls are seamlessly integrated with the white kitchen, which goes over into built-in open shelving by the window, where the most beautiful kitchen accessories can be added to display. The white dining chairs combined with the white pendant results in a white look from which the subtle colors in the accessories jump out of.

A bedroom with a glass partition

The bedroom features a small glass partition from which you can look out onto the hallway. The cozy, minimal bedroom design goes in line with the color palette in the rest of the apartment, from which the subtle details stand out so nicely against the white walls. The small gallery wall above the bed adds a subtle warm tone to the crisp white walls.

A home office in a walk-in-closet

By the end of the bed, you can find another sideboard in wood, which goes well with the white walls and the white bedding in the bedroom. The walk-in closet has been transformed into a small home office space that can be accessed from the hallway as well. Note that the ceiling of the closet has been lowered to still provide storage space for larger pieces above it.

Like in the rest of the apartment, the white walls of the office spot have been complemented with office furniture in wood tones and a beautiful wood wall shelf for keeping office supplies.

White subway tiles and black floor tiles in the bathroom

The white walls continue in the bathroom as well, where beautiful glossy subway tiles adorn the wall. The black tiles on the floor add a bit of contrast to the setting and I love that the shape of the floor tiles is different than the tiles on the wall.

This gorgeous Swedish apartment features a mixture of eclectic elements with Scandinavian influences and a kitchen with walnut kitchen cabinets for an impressive dark touch in the interior.

The adjacent living room and dining room are decorated to perfection, with a statement home library being the highlight of the interior of the living space.

Both the bathroom and the sage green bedroom feature custom-built storage solutions in dark-stained oak and it seems like every single detail in the decor was just meant to be.

Walnut kitchen cabinets combined with limestone and soft greige walls

The clean lines of the minimal kitchen feature a layout that has been spread over three walls, connected by a kitchen island with a breakfast bar in the middle.

The walnut kitchen cabinets are push-to-open and pair up wonderfully with the beige limestone countertop and backsplash. The long peg rail above the sink section is perfect for hanging pans and utensils and it gives the kitchen a subtle farmhouse touch.

On the wall by the window, the TV has been integrated into a gallery wall and the kitchen floor has been covered with an oriental rug with red tones.

Two beautiful black and gold pendant lights light up the kitchen island, while the subtle greige walls with the white trim accentuate the high ceilings of the apartment.

A cozy eclectic living room with lots of details

The living room has been painted entirely with greige wall color, including the door and window frames and the living room wainscoting. This greige paint makes the perfect backdrop for the black and white art prints and the many accessories in the space.

The iconic black Snoopy table lamp lights up the area next to the sofa and the round area rug gives an extra dimension to the space.

The different floor and table lamps spread a cozy light throughout the space and the sheepskin fabrics make the room feel warm and inviting.

A dining room with a statement bookshelf

The large dining room is characterized by a large bookshelf with glass doors that is extended almost all the way up to the ceiling. Just like in the adjacent living room, the dining room has been painted greige with white trim, highlighting the turn-of-the-century details of the architecture.

The large dining table is paired up with CH24 wishbone chairs in walnut which match perfectly with the other warm wood tones in the space.

The XL mirror leaning against the dining room wall reflects the dining space and the impressive bookshelf and makes the space look even bigger.

The bay window is used to place an extra lounge chair, which is paired up nicely with a vintage chest of drawers combined with a classic painting.

A sage green bedroom with a custom wardrobe

The bedroom has been painted sage green, including the historic detailing on the windows and the old heaters for an impressive effect. The gallery wall above the bed adds character and by placing the prints all in one row, it lengthens the space visually.

The sage green walls are paired up with a dark oak custom wardrobe with subtle black hardware that goes all the way up to the ceiling for ample storage opportunity.

Limestone and dark oakwood elements in the bathroom

The dark oak wood of the wardrobe and the limestone elements of the kitchen are brought together in the design of the modern bathroom. Every available space is used for custom storage elements and I love the combination of the warm tones with the chrome bathroom fittings for a modern effect.

Eclectic details in the hallway

The eclectic style present in the interior design has been continued in the hallway as well, where you are welcomed with a wonderful combination of artworks and eclectic accessories upon entering the apartment.

This beautiful turn-of-the-century Swedish home features a mainly beige color palette combined with warm wood tones for an elegant interior design that complements so nicely with the historic architectural features in the building.

The different rooms in this spacious apartment have been painted in tones of beige, combined with nude pink and blue in the guest bedroom and kids’ room. The beige color palette is continued in the kitchen cabinets and the custom built-ins, and even the guest bathroom has beautiful pops of beige.

A kitchen in a beige color palette with a natural stone countertop

The kitchen combines minimal beige kitchen cabinets with beige limestone on the waterfall kitchen island, countertops, and backsplash. The subtle beige wall color matches perfectly with the color of the cabinets and the chrome hardware adds a modern appearance to the space.

The asymmetrical floor plan of the kitchen allows for the module of the appliances to be used from both sides and I love the way open shelving is integrated on the side of the closed cabinets.

The modern and minimal appearance of the kitchen is contrasted by a vintage dining table and a Mona Lisa reproduction on the wall in between the windows. The Ay Illuminate fabric pendant light is the perfect choice above the dining table.

Warm beige living room walls and a custom solution for the TV

The warm beige living room walls bring out the white crown molding and the white floorboards in a perfect way. The combination of the two off-white fabric sofas with the white fluffy area rug lightens up the beige color palette and the beige marble coffee table fits this look perfectly.

The Spanish lounge chair functions as a classic eye-catcher in front of the angled living room wall featuring a large rounded mirror that reflects the space and the daylight coming into these large windows.

The TV is placed on a custom bookshelf featuring closed storage space on the bottom. The impressive wall shelf fills almost the entire wall and by painting it in the same beige paint color as the walls, it blends in with the interior of the living room perfectly.

A subtle beige color palette in the master bedroom

The master bedroom has been painted in a subtle beige wall color that makes the white wardrobe and the white textiles on both the bed and in front of the windows stand out. A large off-white area rug underneath the bed partially covers the dark hardwood flooring for a brighter effect in the room that softens the beige color palette.

Nude pink walls in the guest bedroom

The guest room has been painted in a subtle pink wall color, which gives it a very elegant touch enhanced by the mixture of beiges and pinks in the accessories.

The String shelf on the wall functions as a workspace as well and integrates smoothly with the curved walls in this space.

Grey-blue walls in the kid’s room

The third bedroom has been painted in a subtle grey-blue wall color that makes the white furniture pieces stand out. Rather than working with neutral tones, a few black and dark grey elements finish off this room nicely for a contrasting effect.

A beige color palette and custom storage in the hallway

The hallway follows the beige color palette of the rest of the apartment and features subtle beige walls that are contrasted with the white custom storage solutions in the space.

The heaters are fitted with a custom cover fitting the time period of the architecture of the building and a tall wardrobe module has been complemented by a mudroom storage bench.

White tiles, chrome fixtures, and a beige color palette in the bathrooms

The walls of the master bathroom have been covered with white tile, combined with modern chrome fixtures and subtle marble elements for an elegant yet simple bathroom design.

The guest bathroom has beige walls with pink undertones for an elegant look that is enhanced by the white marble floor tiles.
