Forest green might be an uncommon color for kitchen cabinets, but I think it works wonderfully in this space. The upper cabinets are white for a lighter look and the green goes so well with the hardwood flooring and the wooden worktop. The forest green kitchen cabinetry is very saturated, yet because of the combination with neutrals, it’s the sole focal point in the space. You can see a similar effect with a mint green kitchen here.

The height cabinets are only planned on the wall opposite the window, which was a great choice I think. The other wall has been decorated with art prints to make it more personal and I love the plants spread throughout the room which complement the green color of the cabinets so nicely. The palette of this two-tone kitchen comes together nicely.

I wouldn’t go for a pink wall color very easily myself, but always love the soft glow it has in rooms like this, combined with other pink colors like the curtain or terracotta items. The curtain is a great divider as well when you are working with one room for the bed and living area for example. It visually separates the two areas and in this case it also complements the wall behind it perfectly.

Have a look at this post for my top favorite pink bedroom ideas.

Love how balanced out this kitchen looks in both terms of layout and color palette. The L-shaped layout of bottom cupboards works nicely in this corner, while still allowing ample space in front of the window for this beautiful round dining table with the Wishbone chairs in oak.

The String shelf above the kitchen cupboards is perfect for small items and the peg rail on the other side of the kitchen doesn’t take up a lot of space, yet still adds a little something to this wall.

The bedroom must be my favorite room in this place, with the soft mint green walls and the bedding in the same color palette. I love the little bench with the art print as well, which can be seen from the other room. When it comes to decorating with mint green walls, it’s all about finding balance with elements in natural colors. A mint green wall combines nicely with warm hardwood flooring for example, which makes the cooler tones in the mint green color shine even more. When you want to incorporate mint green in your interior, you can also start with textiles or small accessories to try it out.

This home is decorated with mostly Ikea furniture, yet it’s a great example of how you can find your own style with accessories and details, without breaking the bank for expensive furniture.

In the living room, I like how the soft beige curtains go wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling, for a more expensive look and a perfect framing of the window. The beige velvet area rug gives the sofa its place and all the beige items work very nicely with the black accent pieces.

The kitchen has a very cute small round dining table with black bentwood chairs in front of the window and I love the way the room divider is part of the kitchen. This module contains the oven and extra storage on one side and shelving for shoes on the other. Such a great space-saving solution.

This home makes me want to live in a turn of the century apartment again. There is just something about those large old windows, that let in so much natural light. Apart from this though, I’m really in love with the accessories and details used in this home to make it look interesting, cozy and inviting. 

In the living room the mixture of textures and textiles is very pretty and I love the combination of the graphic Beni Ourain rug combined with the soft beige linen textiles on the sofa. On the wall above the sofa, you can see my art prints Kamut and Pampas, which fit so well into this setup.

The kitchen has a small round dining table that fits perfectly in front of this angled wall and I love the small workspace which has been created in the hallway.

The bedroom has been painted in a soft grey, leaving the bed-niche white, which has a very interesting effect. The warm beige textiles and the wooden side table and peg rail warm up the palette in the bedroom and the beige curtains fit this look very nicely as well.

This kitchen would be somewhat basic without the dark petrol blue walls, which make everything come together so nicely. I love the contrast between the blue and the white of the kitchen cabinet fronts, the window frames, and the wing doors. The blue wall color really makes the white stand out so nicely.

The round dining table in front of the window with the black chairs works very nicely in this corner and I love that the wide layout of the kitchen has only bottom cabinets, combined with open shelving on the top for a lighter look.

Look at this beautiful home with lots of daylight coming through those turn of the century windows. The modest color palette of beige in the living room has been made personal with the gallery wall, the big green plant and the beautiful old fireplace in the corner.

The kitchen consists of mint green and blue cabinet fronts, which is quite the interesting combination and I love that all the plants are gathered on the medium height oven cupboard next to the window. The white glass vitrine contrasts so nicely against the dark grey doors and is perfect for holding special ceramics that are too pretty to be hidden away.

The bedroom looks very light and fresh as well, with a mixture of beige, blue and white linen on the bed for a cozy look.

I love the combination of the light grey walls and the white painted hardwood floors in this Swedish home on two levels. The entire apartment is flooded with the most beautiful natural light, but the second level has those curved windows which are extra special.

The minimal grey galley kitchen with a natural stone worktop looks perfect in combination with the white floors and I love the dining area in front of the window with the dark wood bentwood chairs. Such a nice contrast with the bright white of the floors and curtains.

In the downstairs living area the dining room looks more moody, with the dark furniture, while as the living room looks more fresh. I love the two leather arm chairs in front of the window, perfect for chilling with two people.

I’m loving all the textures and patterns spread throughout this entire apartment in Sweden. The textiles and details in the many art prints on the wall make this home cozy and interesting and add so much character to this place.

The dining room is visible from the living room and has a beautiful warm toned palette to which the black dining chairs add a lot of contrast. The green plants in the entire interior add a nice fresh touch and balance out the warmth of the beige, yellow and terracotta tints.

Some interiors really just speak to me because of their stunning wall colors and this place is certainly one of those. I love each single wall color, but also the way they are combined together and can be seen from the other rooms.

The bedroom is painted in a fresh, but still muted sage green, which goes so nicely with the soft bedlinen in tints of beige and the black accent chair next to the window. 

The living room has a cool grey on the walls, combined with a patch of soft pink for more character. These colors go so well with the artwork on the walls here and I love the green wall color from the bedroom coming through here.
