A Pink Bathroom and a Plywood Kitchen in a Stockholm Apartment
On the top floor of a large apartment building in Stockholm lies this small, but spacious-feeling apartment. The 57-square-meter apartment features an open-plan living space with large windows in two directions, a renovated bathroom, and two bedrooms.
Despite the modest floor size, the apartment feels spacious and bright. It features plenty of site-built storage as well as a unique plywood kitchen, the original herringbone parquet floor, and a bathroom designed with pink Italian tiles.


The kitchen was renovated a couple of years ago, pairing plywood cabinets and countertops with white tiles and exposed brick walls.


Despite the lack of upper cabinets, there is enough storage space with drawers, cabinets, and open shelves. The tiled wall is fitted with a rod to hang pans.


Large windows on two sides of the open-plan living space flood the room with natural light, enhanced by the white shade on the walls and ceiling.



A dining area is fitted under the window, featuring a reclaimed wooden table and a bench made from the same plywood as the kitchen, which also features storage space.



The living room is fresh and light with a large window with unobstructed views thanks to the apartment’s high location.

The white walls and beige sofa are paired with colorful cushions and a pastel-colored rug.

The inner window between the living room and the kids’ bedroom ensures light flows through the apartment. There is a custom-made roller blind that functions as a projector screen and, simultaneously, provides darkness for the bedroom next door.


The largest bedroom has white walls paired with pastel blue accents. The room has a loft area with built-in wardrobes underneath.



The second bedroom (next to the living room) is now used as a children’s room with blue painted walls and a parquet floor.



The bathroom was renovated last year, featuring a combination of pink Italian tiles and black and white British asymmetrical tiles on the floor, along with brass fittings.
