A Colorful Basement Duplex Apartment in Stockholm
In a quiet location in the popular Södermalm neighborhood in Stockholm lies this unique two-floor basement apartment decorated with bright colors. The apartment lies on the lower and ground floor of an early 20th-century apartment building, but the interiors are modern and colorful.
The apartment has two entrances, one on each floor. The basement floor is home to an open-plan living room, kitchen, and a small room used as a home office. On the upper floor lies a bright bedroom and a bathroom.
Even though the living area is located on the basement floor of the apartment, the room is very light and the bright colors used to decorate with also helps to create a vibrant and lively atmosphere.
The sitting area is painted in a bright and cheerful coral pink shade, similar to Benjamin Moore’s Color of the Year 2023 ‘Raspberry Blush.’
A pastel blue doorway opens to a small room on this floor, now used as a home office.
The modern interiors are paired with the occasional antique element, like this beautiful antique writing desk.
On the other side of the living space lies the modern kitchen with walnut cabinets, brass handles, and marble backsplash tiles.
A large wall of wardrobes with mirror doors offer plenty of storage, while also helping to reflect natural light coming from the high windows by the staircase.
A stunning two-part staircase leads to the upper floor on one side and one of the entrances on the other.
The upper floor is home to a spacious and bright bedroom area with pastel blue walls and a light wooden floor.
Just as in the living area, the owners added bold color pops, this time in the form of a red and white striped headboard.
Another antique desk creates a cozy bedroom home office.
While the apartment doesn’t have a private outdoor space, the communal courtyard is wonderfully green and offers plenty of seating areas.
The apartment was listed for sale at Fastighetsbyran.
