A Bright and Open-Plan Attic Apartment with Exposed Beams

The top floor of an early 20th-century apartment building in Stockholm’s Kungsholmen area is home to a magnificent attic apartment with exposed wooden beams and painted brickwork.

The 94-square-meter apartment is open to the ridge, creating voluminous spaces that also feel very bright thanks to the white walls and the large windows. The visible beams and brickwork add a charming, historic touch to the contemporary interior spaces.

A wood-burning stove stands in the center of the living space, adding warmth to the interior spaces in the evening.

Beautiful light flows through the large windows in the sitting room. The area is decorated in a contemporary style, featuring a gray sofa, ‘Bollo’ armchairs by Andreas Engesvik, and an ochre rug.

The living space has a white base, but the owners added vibrant color accents, like the yellow accent wall, colorful art, and blue side tables.
