Brown and Pale Blue Walls in a Charming Stockholm Apartment

This charming one-bedroom apartment is located on the first floor of a quiet turn-of-the-century courtyard building in Stockholm. The 51-square-meter apartment features original elements, such as stucco, deep window niches, and wooden floors, paired with modern furnishings.

The apartment features an open-plan living space with a bistro kitchen and exposed brick on one side and a sitting area on the other. The home is painted in a contrasting palette of pale blue and warm brown.

The light gray cabinet with the fridge and additional storage serves as a divider between the kitchen and the sitting area.

The open-plan living space features large windows, creating a bright atmosphere. On one side of the room, you’ll find a charming bistro-style kitchen with black cabinets, a wooden countertop, and white square tiles that run toward the ceiling. The exposed brick adds a nice historical element to the space.

The wall between the hall and the living room has been partially removed, creating an open atmosphere that makes the living room larger than its actual size.

On the other side of the room, you will find the cozy sitting area focused around a fireplace that adds a cozy vibe to the room in the evening.

The ice-blue walls add to the living space’s bright atmosphere.

The pale blue contrasts nicely with the brown shade on the walls in the hall.

The bedroom can be accessed via the living room and the hall. The walls in the spacious room are painted a light brown, which highlights the original white stucco.

Two large windows flood the room with natural light. The spacious room has enough space for a home office (or a sitting corner). High shelves have been added for book storage, while two cabinets (one in yellow and one in dark red) add additional storage.
