A Cozy Vintage Bohemian Maisonette in Sweden

If you live in a house with many slanted ceilings but you don’t know how to decorate your home because of that. Then I suggest you take a look at this vintage bohemian maisonette in Sweden.

The small 58 square meter house is divided over two floors, with the living room, kitchen, and bathroom on the lower floor. On the attic floor are two bedrooms and a library/home office.

The small Swedish home is decorated in a historic look, which is thanks to the current owner who decorated this house to perfection while also adding a new kitchen and bathroom that look like they’ve been in this house forever.

The sitting room is a wonderful cozy space with black-painted floorboards and walls painted in “Wimborne White” from Farrow & Ball.

Many of the living room furniture and storage was built on site to make it a perfect fit for the space. The custom made sofa includes storage space.

The dark oiled solid oak vinyl cabinet is custom made. The cast iron staircase leading to the attic rooms is made by Packhus. It is a direct copy of a French industrial model from the 1890s.

The kitchen is renovated in 2016 and like the rest of the home it is designed to perfection.

Next to the upper cabinets they added open shelves in the awkward nook with slanted ceiling. A perfect use of space.
