Natural Light in a Family Home in Sweden

Built in 1920, this Scandinavian villa was recently renovated to create a serene family home with modern elements combined with period features. The 200 square meter family home has beautiful large open-plan living spaces and five bedrooms.

One thing you instantly notice in this Swedish home is the natural light that floods into the rooms. It creates a beautiful ambiance in the stylish rooms.

The entire home is decorated in a calm, neutral color scheme with light gray walls and white furniture. But the wooden floorboards and period features such as tiled fireplaces bring character and warmth to the rooms.
