An Apartment with a Mirror Wall in a Former Stockholm Factory

The former straw hat factory in Stockholm was converted into modern residences by architect Andreas Martin-Löf in 2012. This 59-square-meter apartment is located on the ground floor of this factory building and features an open-plan living area with a large mirror wall.

There is a nice blend of old factory style and contemporary design. High ceilings, large windows, and wide plank flooring give a nod to the building’s history, but the furnishings and decor turn this industrial home into a cozy and inviting modern home.

The apartment features an open-plan living space with large windows facing the street. The bedroom wall is fitted with mirror glass, adding an interesting design touch while also making the room feel slightly bigger.

There is a cozy sitting area on one end, defined by a white rug and paired with a white sofa, a clear glass coffee table, and colorful art on the wall.

The mirror wall makes the sitting area look twice as big as it is. Open bookcases are fitted underneath.

The upper cabinets of the dark gray kitchen have been left open to display favorite glass and earthware. The dark cupboards are paired with a marble countertop and backsplash.

The kitchen is open toward the entrance hall. There is a little niche to hang coats and store shoes.

Behind the mirror wall lies the apartment’s bedroom. White walls are paired with dark woodwork, painted in the same color as the kitchen cabinets.

Even though the wall looks like a mirror from the living room, you can actually see through the dark glass toward the windows.
