Cozy Plant-Filled Interiors in a 1940s Apartment

In a charming 1940s apartment building in Stockholm lies this one-bedroom apartment with cozy rooms, plants, and a deep color palette. The 56 square meter apartment features original details, like the windows, parquet flooring, and Kolmårds marble window sills.

When the doors to the living room and kitchen are opened, light flows through the apartment from two directions. The living also features a cozy balcony overlooking the green courtyard.

In the living room, the greenery you see outside the windows is reflected in the interiors. The walls are painted in a deep green hue, and the room is filled with plants. These green elements are paired with a classic oak parquet floor and a large checkerboard-patterned rug.

A cozy sitting area is created by the window with views of the treetops outside. The walls are decorated with art and bookshelves, creating a personal and cozy atmosphere.

The room can handle a dark color like this green hue, thanks to the large windows and glass door leading to the balcony.

From the living room, you have access to a cozy balcony with plants, a corner bench made of palettes, and a small table attached to the railing.

The kitchen, on the other side of the apartment, is a wonderful social space with classic cabinets and a large dining table with a seating bench against the wall.

The kitchen was renovated in 2022, pairing beige mirror doors with classic “Greppa” fittings, an oak countertop, and a porcelain butler sink.

A large table stands on the other side of the kitchen. The walls are painted in a pleasant gray-green hue and paired with art and plants.

The small but charming bedroom overlooks the green courtyard. The walls are painted in ‘Himlavalv’ by Beckers, paired with soft pink bedding for a lighter color accent.
