A Light Penthouse Apartment with Built-In Bookshelves

On the top floor of a turn-of-the-century apartment complex in Stockholm lies this amazing penthouse apartment with slanted ceilings, built-in bookshelves, and spacious open-plan living spaces.

The three-bedroom apartment has a beautiful open floor plan between the living room and the kitchen, ensuring the spaces get natural light from two directions. Even though the apartment has slanted ceilings, the ceiling is high (4.70 meters) and there are large windows, creating living spaces that feel spacious and airy.
