This newly-built private residence in the south of Finland is designed by Fyra (in collaboration with Studio BonBon Architects, photographed by Riikka Kantinkoski). The calm and tranquil aesthetic of the interior is carefully crafted with custom furniture, lighting, and surfaces to meet the needs of the residents.

The clean and minimal architecture draws inspiration from a Mediterranean aesthetic, while the interior design disrupts uniformity with a variety of textures and materials for a vibrant and engaging effect. The combination of rough and soft surfaces works well in this spacious home where thoughtful lines of sight facilitate serene transitions from one room into the other.

This gorgeous turn-of-the-century home for sale in Sweden (Styled by Emma Fisher, photographed by Krister Engström for Kvarteret Makleri) has a beautiful selection of sage-green paint colors in each of the rooms, ranging from a delicate light sage-green paint color in the living room to deeper shades in the kitchen and bedroom.

The kitchen cabinets have been given a refresh with a coat of sage-green paint. By painting the shiplap backsplash in the same color, the cooking space gets an entirely updated look. In the bedroom, it’s the custom wainscoting behind the bed that received a lick of green paint for a cohesive look throughout the apartment.

While a completely white color palette might sound boring to some of you, I think this beautiful apartment (for sale via Bolaget) proves that you don’t necessarily need colors to make an interior look cozy and inviting. The color palette of this space is mainly white, mixed with natural wood tones and a few pops of beige.

The off-white kitchen with beige limestone countertops stands out against the crisp white walls, while the white sofas in the living room blend in with the wall color. The big walnut coffee table adds a beautiful contrast to the living room setting, which is reflected in the full-size mirror on the wall opposite the windows.

The bedroom shares the same color palette as the other rooms, with a mixture of white and off-white bedding on the bed and a large off-white custom wardrobe spread across the wall.
