Characterful kitchen in blue and green tints

post

I think the color choice in this beautiful Swedish kitchen is just spot on. The light blue color on the walls complements so nicely with the different shades of blue and green cabinet doors and I love the contrast with the warm leather dining chairs and the wooden dining table.

The wooden floorboards have been painted in the same tint as well and the shelfs on the wall have undergone the same green treatment. Such a wonderful palette.

New painting in my dining room

post

I have been loving the subtile blue accents in my dining room. I think the pops of blue coming from the small ceramics and the blue Muuto Kink vase* combine so nicely with the warm hardwood flooring, the wood on my Ferm Living Mingle table* and my white walls.

I have been painting a lot during the last few months, it has brought me peace and quiet and a way to express myself in these challenging times. I decided to make a painting especially for this corner and worked with tints of beige and a very dark blue. I think it turned out lovely and I might make a print out of it soon, so stay tuned.

In these dark days, I very much enjoy candle light and my new favorites are these ribbed glass vases from Arket* which adds such a great effect to the light of the candle.

Characterful home with beautiful details

post

There is little not to love about his cozy and characterful Swedish home with great wall colors and carefully selected furniture and accessories.

The living room has been painted in a warm beige color, which makes the dining table with the black dining chairs in front of the window stand out in a very nice way. The massive Monstera plant in the window adds a touch of green and the slight color on the area rug underneath the sofa works very nicely with the deep colors in the art prints.

The beautiful light grey kitchen has warm grey walls, which makes the vintage white dining table stand out. I love the brass pendant above it,  a true eye-catcher compared to the otherwise modest yet elegant material choices in the kitchen.

The bedroom has a cooler light grey color on the walls, which contrasts beautifully with the warm tints in the bedsheets and the vintage bedside table.

White studio home with beige finishes

post

This small studio home in Sweden is decorated mainly with white furniture pieces, warmed up by the use of beige fabrics and accessories. The white sofa in the living room combined with the white fluffy area rug brightens up this area and the warm beige curtains* in front of the window that go wall-to-wall do a lot for the color palette of this space.

The bed has been placed in the opposite corner of the room and I love the way the bench by the end of the bed provides a spot to place pillows, but also separates the sleeping area from the doorway.

The dining area in the kitchen looks very fresh and cozy as well and I love that the inside of the vintage cabinet has been painted in a light beige.

Cozy home with vintage pieces

post

I think this beautiful Swedish apartment looks so cozy and inviting. The walls are kept white, yet because of the beige linen curtains*, natural furniture and warm accents in the prints and accessories, this home looks very warm.

The vintage accessories like the standing lamp, nightstand by the bed and other small items give this home character and the use of prints adds personality. 

I love the long oval dining table with the beige linen tablecloth* in the kitchen, which fits perfectly in this narrow space. The light oak chairs fit this look like a glove and the oak wall shelf high up on the wall adds a spot for decor items without taking away space from the already narrow seating area.

Beautiful home with exposed walls

post

The exposed brick walls in this beautiful Swedish home are a great feature on their own and add a very warm tint to the color palette of the apartment with otherwise white walls and floors. The colors of the decor have been kept clean and simple as well, with tints of beige, grey and black for a neutral palette that fits very nicely with the warmth coming from the walls.

The black kitchen really stands out against the white floors and walls and the black dining chairs enhance this contrast even more.

Two small workspaces have been added in this home: one in the bedroom and one in the kitchen next to the window. I love how you can even see this new trend of working from home in the homes that are for sale. We really are changing up the way we work and it’s having an effect on the way we decorate our places.

Loft style living kitchen

post

It’s one thing to be able to live in a place like this with these industrial styled details and large windows that let in the most beautiful daylight, it’s a whole other thing to make this space work as a home. I think this living kitchen works so nicely in this space and even though it has a very industrial look, a cozy and home-like feeling was created by the use of different materials.

Cozy bedroom with a home office

post

This beautiful light flooded bedroom with windows on two sides of the bed (such a luxury) has such a fresh look yet is super cozy as well. The beige striped linen bedding combined with the classic floor lamp, the fabric pendant on the ceiling and the white curtains add so much texture to the area where the bed is placed.

The vintage desk stands out so nicely on the opposite side and even though this corner has a rather odd shape, it works perfectly for this purpose. The shelves on the wall are placed on different heights, which offers space for books and works well on these angled walls.

Basement home office

post

So many people are having to create a spontaneous home office now that working from home became such a common thing. You can transform an area of your dining table, place a small office table in your bedroom or you can transform a basement space like this one into a home office. 

I love the way this room is transformed into a warm and inviting space with the nude pink color on the walls. A floating desk was created by mounting a custom-cut wooden plate in between the walls and voila, there you have a home office for two.

Light flooded home in a beige palette

post

Even though I love the paint color on the wall, I’m falling back in love with the simplicity of white walls, which reflect the daylight so nicely just like in this beautiful Swedish home. Through those large windows, decorated with double-layer beige linen curtains, the crisp winter daylight comes through, reflecting off these white walls. The large standing mirror next to the window reflects the daylight throughout the space even more.

The white fabric sofa in the living room combined with the light beige area rug forms a perfect white canvas for all the beige accessories, textiles, and furniture which make the space look warm and inviting.

The white dining table combined with the wooden chairs matches the white and beige color palette and connects the living room with the rest of the apartment, which is kind of oddly shaped but seems to work out well. The kitchen and bedroom share the same angled wall, with the bedroom hidden in a nook behind a white linen curtain.
