post

In this apartment for sale in Sweden (Styled by Emma Fisher and Annica Clarmell, photographed by Maria Sahlander for Stadshem) the green-grey color palette takes front and center in the interior decor.

The green-grey kitchen with a white tile backsplash and kitchen island takes a strong presence in the living space. The color on the kitchen cabinets is paired with a light shade of green-grey paint in the sofa area, with black accents and a grey sofa.

The bedroom and entryway are painted in a darker green-grey shade, adding a moody look to the setting. The wall colors unify the color palette throughout this beautiful apartment.

The kitchen is the central space where the other rooms of the apartment come out. Because of this, there isn’t a single wall available that doesn’t have a window or doorway. By splitting the kitchen into two modules, the layout works well in this space.

A studio apartment with a loft bed built on top of a home office

post

This gorgeous studio apartment for sale in Sweden (Styled by Linnรฉa H. Manaberi, photographed by Peter Pousard, via Alvhem) makes efficient use of the high ceilings, by integrating a loft bed inside the space that can be accessed through the custom staircase in the sofa area.

The loft bed sits on top of a home office space and the module separates the open floor plan into five main areas: a sofa section, dining area, kitchen corner, home office, and sleeping area. The visual distinction between the different areas is clear, optimizing the layout of this studio flat.

The black-and-white color palette in the apartment is enriched with brown and beige tones for a bright aesthetic that makes the apartment look more spacious.

The entire living room wall is filled with a bookshelf that is painted in the same color as the wall. This makes the shelving itself blend in and the books stand out like a classic home library.

The dark blue couches are paired with a light area rug and a beige stone coffee table that brightens up the color palette.

A vintage living room desk and vintage glass cabinet are placed on either side of the doorway. These warm wood tones add a warm glow to the cool undertones in the paint color.

Dark blue walls in the main bedroom

The main bedroom has deep and dark blue wall paint on the walls and the peg rail above the bed. The beige textiles and natural tones in the art prints and decor stand out against this deep wall color.

Green wall colors in the kid’s bedrooms

The two smaller kid’s bedrooms are painted in green tones. The mint green wall color in the first bedroom is paired with a window sill desk to optimize the layout of the small space.

The second small bedroom has a more muted green tone on the walls.

A bathroom with a concrete look

The bathroom walls are treated with a concrete finish, which gives the space a rustic effect. The oriental tiles contrast with this texture on the walls in a lovely way.

An attic apartment with dark grey floors and a neutral decor

post

This beautiful attic apartment with alcove windows and exposed wood beams (styled by Living Deco, photographed by Maria Sahlander for Stadshem) has a dark grey floor treatment. This dark flooring is brightened up by a light interior color palette in both the spacious living room and the bedroom.

The small kitchen is a part of the living space. The dining table is a great separator between the kitchen and the rest of the living room. You can find a small desk to work from home on the wall next to the bedroom.

The bedroom is rather small, however, it fits a small double bed comfortably. The color palette in this room shares the one in the rest of the apartment.

Grey flooring and a light color palette in the living room

The dark grey vinyl flooring in the apartment is matched by the dark paint color on the exposed wood beams and contrasts with the white walls and ceilings in the space. A large white area rug brightens up a large portion of the flooring. The white fabric sofa and white armchair make the look even lighter.

A combination of beige and red tones adds a warm element to the interior. The round wood coffee table next to the sofa breaks up all the white in this area.

The bench next to the alcove window fits this low-ceiling area perfectly. The prints and decor pieces finish off this section perfectly.

The space next to the bedroom is used for a small home office spot. The low-ceiling areas of an attic apartment are always a little trickier to decorate, however, they are great for areas where you sit down anyway, like a desk.

The kitchen is part of the large living room as well. The corner layout of the kitchen allows for an open plan, where the dining table can take center stage.

The kitchen itself is a bit dated, however, it’s brought to life by the beautiful combination of accessories.

A small attic bedroom

The tiny attic bedroom fits a small double bed comfortably. The natural color palette mirrors the one in the adjacent living room. The mirror on the wall opposed to the window reflects the daylight coming in and makes the space appear bigger.

A small hallway section in the living room

Since the apartment door comes out straight into the living room of the apartment, a small hallway section is created next to the hallway door.
