Warm and Rich Colors in a 19th-Century Stockholm Apartment

This cozy apartment is located on the ground floor of a beautiful 19th-century apartment building in Stockholm. Despite the ground floor courtyard location, the large windows let in plenty of natural light, and the entire apartment is painted in warm, muted tones.

The apartment is located in the stylish Vasastan area of Stockholm, but thanks to its courtyard location, it is a place of calm and coziness. The home features beautiful original elements, such as wooden floorboards, mirrored doors, and high skirting boards, which lend it a great deal of character.

The apartment isn’t big (64 square meters), but every room is just the right size, allowing enough space for comfortable living.

The living room is a fantastic, cozy space with walls painted in a warm beige-pink hue that highlights the white-painted original joinery. Two huge windows with original deep window niches let in plenty of natural light.

There is a small space with a loft area next to the living room (hence the door), this space is now used as a children’s room.

The wooden floorboards are dark-stained, adding a warm hue to the space.

The open doorway between the kitchen and living room creates a social layout while maintaining the separate functions of each space.

The spacious kitchen is located at the heart of the apartment. It’s a place to gather with friends and family seated around a large dining table.

The cooking space is small but practical, featuring white cabinets with a wooden countertop, white metro tiles for the backsplash, and stainless steel shelves.

On the other side, in front of the large windows, you’ll find a large dining table and a bar table with seating that works perfectly for working at home or kids doing homework.

The walls are painted in a combination of white and a moody blue-green hue.

The bedroom is a serene haven, with walls painted in a beige-gray hue that adds a sense of calm to the space. One wall is fitted with wardrobes, and the same warm wooden floorboards lie on the floor.

The large bedroom window opens onto a light tunnel accessible only to the apartment, making the bedroom a beautiful, quiet haven perfect for sleeping.

The apartment’s spacious walk-in closet has been converted into a cozy children’s room or combined guest room and home office with a built-in sleeping loft. The walls are painted in gray-beige with a yellow ceiling, and the floor is covered with light carpet.

Large white tiles and dark brown mosaic floor tiles create a timeless look in the apartment’s bathroom. It features a combined shower and bath with a smart storage niche with blue-green mosaic tiles.

The ceiling, painted in a dark green hue, contrasts nicely with the white tilework.
