Cozy living space

post

I think the layout of the Swedish home for sale with the wing doors between the kitchen and living room is just perfect. The kitchen is big enough to fit a large dining table and the cozy sofa area is with its grey walls peeking through has a nice effect.

I like the two &Tradition Formakami pendants* above the table, they add such a delicate yet graphic touch. The light grey of the kitchen cabinets comes back in the kitchen wall color and matches the metro tiles on the wall very nicely. The living room with its darker walls and the eye catching bentwood rocking chair looks so amazingly cozy and moody, I would love to spend an afternoon reading there.

Beautiful kitchen in beige and blue

post

Maybe it’s because I have such an overwhelmingly white kitchen in my own home, but I’m always so inspire with uncommon color choices in the kitchen. Take this kitchen design in a Swedish home for example, which has warm grey cabinet doors combined with a muted blue backsplash. I think these two colors go so well together and give this space a cool and warm touch at the same time. 

I’m a big fan of the long peg rail above the stove as well and the fact that top cupboards are only used on the left side of the kitchen gives the layout an open look and feel.

Amazing turn of the century bedroom

post

Just imagine this would be where you go to sleep at night ! This bedroom is so stylish with the turn-of-the-century details on the walls and ceilings, it doesn’t need any special decor to make the interior shine. The simple yet luxurious bedding, combined with the light grey area rug on top of the old hardwood flooring and the vintage cabinet look perfectly balanced in this historic masterpiece. I also like the way they have worked with the art prints above the wall panelling.

A black kitchen and blue bedroom walls in a historic Swedish apartment

post

This gorgeous turn-of-the-century apartment in Sweden (Styled by Grey Deco, photographed by Jonas Berg via Stadshem) with ornate historic architectural details has an open floor plan that connects the impressive black kitchen with the living and dining area.

The green-grey living room walls are paired with a dark grey sofa and a grey dining table that complement the wall color. The TV is integrated into a gallery wall making it blend into the interior in an elegant way. The kitchen has black cabinets paired with black countertops for an impressive contrast against the white-soaped hardwood flooring in the apartment.

The main bedroom features a dark blue wall color paired with bedroom wainscoting on the bottom half of the wall and an elegant grey carpet throughout the space. The second bedroom features a delicate wallpaper design above the wainscoting and the desk is built into the custom wardrobe setup in a smart way.

The living room walls are painted in a medium green-grey wall color that makes the intricate crown molding underneath the ceiling stand out in a powerful yet delicate way. The crystal chandelier matches the era of the architecture and adds a chic touch to the interior.

The dark grey Ikea Soderham sofa and the grey velvet area rug add a darker element to the setting, which is finished off with a contrasting wall lamp and a white marble coffee table.

The TV and soundbar are integrated into a gallery wall on top of a white Ikea Besta cabinet, which gives it an integrated spot inside of the interior, without being a disturbing piece of technology in the space.

The kitchen is built inside the doorway between the entryway and the dining area. The layout is planned around the doorway in a smart way, allowing a spot for a wine cooler on the side of the kitchen.

The black kitchen cabinets are paired with a black marble countertop, a black stove hood, and black wall shelving for a contrasting effect in the space.

A niche space inside the wall next to the dining table is turned into open shelving with glass shelves and since this element is painted white, it stands out against the wall color of the dining area.

The grey dining table fits perfectly in between the kitchen and the historic white porcelain fireplace and is paired with oak wood dining chairs that complement the white-soaped hardwood flooring nicely.

The beautiful white bedroom wainscoting and the white crown molding underneath the bedroom ceiling stand out against the gorgeous deep blue bedroom wall color. The bedroom is fitted with a soft grey carpeting that adds a beautiful texture to the space.

The white bedding and the white fabric pendant light stand out against the dark blue wall color, which is complemented by a combination of sheer white and dark blue curtains.

The white bedside tables and the black Pholc Mobil wall lamps finish the bedroom design off nicely and the black and white art print adds a delicate detail above the bed.

The antique armchair by the end of the bed provides a comfortable spot to read a book and adds a lovely warm tone to this cool bedroom color palette.

The classic look of the custom white wardrobe matches perfectly with the historic details on the ceiling and on the majestic white porcelain fireplace in the bedroom corner.

The guest bedroom is finished with the Nuvolette wallpaper from Fornasetti on top of the white wainscoting which adds a delicate focal point to this smaller room.

The mint green sofa bed in front of the window adds a subtle note of color and the green plant complements the subtle green tone on the fabric.

A small home office desk is built inside of a custom wardrobe, combining two functionalities into one. The green marble floating desk pairs well with the mint green sofa bed and with the classic green table lamp.

Cozy white kitchen

post

I love it when the kitchen and dining area are one. It is like that in my own apartment and it’s just very practical and so much nicer if you are having friends over and are spending time preparing food at the same time. This all-white kitchen with white tiles on the walls works very nicely in combination with the round black dining table and the wooden chairs. Such a nice contrast that has a very cozy and inviting effect.

Beautiful dark grey kitchen

post

I really like this dark grey kitchen with the white marble countertop. The upper cabinets are open on one side, which makes it great for displaying your prettiest ceramics and there is enough space for a dining table in front of those big windows as well, which is nicely outlined by that graphic area rug.

The black cabinets are finished off with subtle black leather pulls, which blend into the matte black cabinet color.

Vipp kitchen in grey

post

The kitchen design from Danish Vipp has become somewhat of a design icon and has found its way in many high end homes all over the world ever since it was introduced 8 years ago. Vipp now introduced a light grey color variant next to the popular black and white version and I think it looks wonderful. It’s less clean than the white, yet not as dramatic as the black and has a very soft look to it, especially combined with the concrete and wood in those beautiful images.

Beautiful and minimal home

post

I’m not exactly what you would call a minimalist in my own home. I like to keep things clean and uncluttered, but the level of minimalism in this home goes way further than that. Still though, without many items, this home shows personality I think, something that can be challenging to achieve with minimalism in my opinion.

I especially like the adjacent dining and living room, with those beautiful turn of the century sliding doors. I think it’s quite a luxury to have a room with the sole purpose of dining, especially in the city. It makes sense though as there is only a small table in the kitchen. This small table has a built in bench and comes peeking through from the hallway, which is such a nice touch.

Fresh home with blue walls

post

I love this fresh home with the blue walls. The living room has been painted in a cool and light grey, which looks fresh in combination with the blue peeking through from the bedroom, yet has a warm look because it has been paired up with the wood and cognac leather in the armchairs. 

I like the layout of this turn of the century home as well, with the wing doors dividing the bedroom and living room. The bedroom has a small office space against the wall, which I’m a big fan of.

The kitchen fits a big dining table, which is such a luxury and I love the fact that the old stove was kept. This is such a nice touch.
