Dark Tones and Industrial Elements in a Late 19th-Century Apartment

Perched high above one of Södermalm’s most beloved squares, this charming two-room apartment on Mosebacke torg offers a rare blend of historic character, generous light, and a peaceful courtyard setting.

With large windows facing two directions, the apartment fills with natural light throughout the day, making it feel welcoming and bright despite the dark-colored walls in the living room and bedroom.

The house is located at Mosebacke torg, which means being surrounded by the best of Södermalm. Often considered one of the area’s most sought-after addresses, the square blends historic charm with a vibrant cultural scene.

The living room is situated at the front of the apartment, featuring two tall windows overlooking Moseback Torg.

Stucco moldings, a decorative ceiling rosette, high baseboards, mirrored niches, and beautiful wooden floors add historic and timeless character to the space.

The dark blue shade on the walls is paired with colorful textiles in the form of a huge kilim rug hanging from the wall and a red-toned rug.

A vintage desk is placed in front of one of the large windows. A great setup for working from home with a view!

The apartment’s elevated position means that the view from the windows is magnificent, and you feel a great sense of privacy.

The kitchen opens up as a natural gathering place in the home. Spacious and thoughtfully designed, it offers plenty of work surfaces and room for dining beside a charming built-in bench.

The kitchen is simple in design, featuring black cabinets with a wooden countertop and a butler sink. The faucet and exposed brick add an industrial touch to the room, while the blue tilework adds a Moroccan twist.

The white bench offers plenty of seating space and storage.

Large windows brighten the space, and a door leads directly out to the apartment’s balcony, perfectly positioned to capture the afternoon and evening sun. Facing the quiet courtyard, this outdoor space becomes a peaceful retreat above the city.

The bedroom is located next to the kitchen. The wooden floorboards and high baseboards are paired with a beautiful dark green hue on the walls.

The furnishing is kept simple, as the bedroom also gives access to a spacious walk-in wardrobe; there is no need to clutter up the bedroom with storage furniture.

A window is fitted in the wall between the bedroom and the bathroom, ensuring the latter receives natural light.

The hints of industrial style in the kitchen return in the bathroom with gray plastered walls and dark tilework.

The combined shower and bath is fitted in front of the inner window, allowing you to look outside while taking a bath.

The bathroom also features a beautiful wooden sink.
