A Stunning Kitchen in a Classic Renovated Turn-of-the-Century Apartment

In the last three years, this turn-of-the-century apartment in Gothenburg was fully renovated, creating a social floor plan with spacious rooms, classic design elements, and beautiful period features.

The owners changed the floor plan of the apartment, creating a spacious site-built kitchen in one of the living rooms, opening up the old entrance and creating a spacious hall. In additions, they wanted to return the early 20th-century character of the home so they added new herringbone parquet floors, new stucco and baseboards, and three newly renovated French double doors.

The new kitchen has become the heart of the home. The shaker-style kitchen was built on site by Norrland Snek. The cabinets were brushed painted on the outside and brown stained on the inside.

The shaker-style cabinets are topped with a quartzite Desert Wave stone countertop from Kungälv Natursten, and paired with untreated brass knobs and handles.

The living room is bathed in light thanks to two large windows. The walls, painted in a muted gray tone by Jotun, make the stucco and baseboards stand out wonderfully.

The second bedroom used to be the kitchen. The previous owner removed some of the plasterwork to reveal the exposed brickwork, which gives this bedroom a unique look. The room also has a rounded wall due to the fact that it’s located next to the central stairwell.
