A Scandi Apartment with Bright Color Pops and a Beautiful Courtyard Terrace

The ground floor of a 1920s building in the Södermalm area of Stockholm is home to a wonderful family apartment with color accents in the decor, a separate studio apartment, and a large private courtyard terrace.

The 123 square meter apartment is the result of merging two smaller ones, and it features two entrances, allowing one part of the apartment to be a standalone studio with its own kitchen and bathroom. Perfect for an older child or as a rental.

The open-plan living space is the heart of the home, featuring a beautiful herringbone parquet floor, large windows, and doors leading to the charming courtyard terrace.

The room features a cozy sitting area on one side, complete with a light pink sofa and an ochre-yellow rug. More color is added through the pillows and art, creating a vibrant lounge spot.

The other side of the room features a modern kitchen with teal-green lower cabinets, brass fittings, and a marble countertop and backsplash.

The dining room is lighted by two flowerpot pendants from &tradition.

From the kitchen, you step out onto the terrace, where the stairs lead down to the association’s lush courtyard.

The terrace spans the entire width of the apartment, and the separate studio has its own private terrace, separated from the main one by flower boxes.

The master bedroom features wall-to-wall wardrobes framing the double bed. The walls are painted in a light blue hu,e which pairs nicely with the wooden floorboards.

The largest bedroom has been converted into a children’s room, featuring a loft bed (120cm wide), a wall-mounted desk, and a spacious play area.

The bathroom has a fresh look with green and white tilework, light green walls, and an antique dresser that has been converted into a bathroom vanity.
