A Light-Filled Contemporary Swedish Apartment

On the ground floor of an early 20th-century building in Gothenburg lies this newly created one-bedroom apartment filled with light and a private courtyard terrace. The entire apartment has been styled by Emma Fischer, creating a tranquil oasis in the middle of the city.

The 56-square-meter apartment is designed with high-quality materials like oak and limestone, creating a timeless, elegant home that perfectly exemplifies Scandinavian interior design style.

The apartment has an open-plan living space with large windows and glass doors leading to the private terrace. The light atmosphere is amplified by the light shade on the walls (Kokos by Jotun).
