Midcentury Furniture & a Dark Blue Bedroom in a 1930s Apartment

On the fourth floor of a 1930s building in Stockholm, lies this lovely one-bedroom apartment with midcentury interiors, a small, deep blue bedroom, and a renovated bathroom.

Original details, such as herringbone parquet, mirrored doors, barred windows, and deep window niches, have been preserved, adding character to the spaces. The high ceilings also create a sense of space in the 48-square-meter apartment.

The wall between the living room and the bedroom is adorned with an industrial-style mirror, which reflects the light from the window and makes the room feel larger.

Next to the living room lies the small bedroom that is just big enough for a double bed and wardrobes. The light pink bedding adds a nice light accent to the room, which is painted in a dark hue.

The walls are painted in a soothing dark blue-green shade, including the wardrobes along one wall, making the blend in nicely in the small room. The niches are smartly used for storage and decor as well.

The kitchen features a simple design, characterized by gray and white cabinets, a black laminate countertop, and white backsplash tiles. The generous ceiling height is utilized to create ample storage space with cabinets that extend up to the ceiling.

The hall features a clever shoe rack that occupies less space than a traditional one. The walls are painted in a warm pink shade, and the mid-century style that is evident throughout the apartment begins in the hall, where the owners added a beautiful wooden cabinet.
