A Luxurious Family Apartment with a Dramatic Black Bathroom

On the first floor of a late 19th-century building in Stockholm lies this recently renovated family apartment that exudes classic charm with the benefits of modern amenities.

The apartment pairs original elements like a fireplace, high ceilings (3.1 meters), stucco, and mirrored doors, with a newly laid herringbone parquet floor and a new kitchen and bathroom with beautiful tilework and wallpapers.

The room was divided into two spaces, separated by a sliding door, to add an extra bedroom/playroom. But even so, there is enough space for a dining table seating four.

The added room is now used as a playroom (but would also make a wonderful home office) and features green wallpaper and a balcony.
