A Light, Renovated Two-Bedroom Apartment in Stockholm

Timeless charm and exclusive material choices are combined in this two-bedroom apartment in Stockholm. The 1930s apartment was completely renovated two years ago, adding a new kitchen, bathroom, and storage solutions.

The 65 square meter apartment has a nice flowing layout with an open plan living room and kitchen. As you see in many Swedish apartments, there are no internal doors between the living area and the hall, adding a sense of space to the rooms and letting natural light flow through the apartment.

The apartment has an open-plan living room and kitchen with only a fireplace dividing the space. The walls are painted in Little Greene’s ‘Washed Linen’, and there lies a herringbone parquet floor treated with a walnut-colored oil. The floor continues through the apartment for a warm and harmonious look.
