Pastel Colors and Contemporary Design in a Late 19th Century Apartment

What a wonderful apartment I have to share with you. This one-bedroom apartment in Stockholm is located in a late 19th century building and perfectly blends period features with a soft and fresh color palette and contemporary interiors.

The turn-of-the-century apartment was tastefully renovated, preserving and enhancing original period features and adding contemporary design to create an old home that is ready for modern-day living.

The entire home is painted in lovely pastel tones, and for the living room, the owners opted for a pink color palette with a very soft beige-pink shade on the walls and a dark color on the ceiling.
