Lovely Color Combinations in a Charming One-Bedroom Apartment

This charming one-bedroom apartment on the fifth floor of an early 20th-century apartment building in Stockholm features unique color combinations and views of the surrounding rooftops.

The apartment was recently renovated. The walls and joinery were painted in calm and bright colors that give each room its own identity, and the previously lowered ceiling in the hallway and bathroom were removed so that every room now has beautiful 3-meter-high ceilings.
