Green Tones in a Renovated Stockholm Duplex Apartment

With views over the rooftops of the popular Södermalm district in Stockholm and a two-story layout, this renovated duplex apartment is a welcoming home in Sweden. The entire apartment was renovated in 2020 with a new kitchen, freshly painted walls, a new herringbone parquet laid upstairs, and custom-made wardrobes fitted in the bedroom.

The warm wooden floors and painted walls bring a comforting atmosphere to the rooms. A spiral staircase connects the lower floor with the attic floor that houses the bedrooms. You have all the benefits of apartment living while also that feeling of living in a ‘proper’ home.

The dove blue color on the walls and the oak herringbone parquet floor turn the living room into a comforting space. The room is not big, but it can easily house a sofa and a dining table.
