A Scandi Apartment Mixes Vintage with Contemporary Design
In this Stockholm apartment, they paired elegant and classic early 20th-century features with contemporary design elements, creating a beautiful and warm home. In this 63-square-meter apartment, you will find beautiful original details, such as double wooden doors and a tiled fireplace, which adds a lovely historic charm to the space.
Pastel colors and floral wallpaper also add to that inviting atmosphere. The living room is painted in a lovely light pink shade, and the bedroom pairs floral wallpaper with green trims and doors.
What’s also clever in this apartment is that they opened up the kitchen with the hallway to create a more spacious and flowing space. Dark wooden floorboards tie all the rooms in this apartment together.
The walls in the living room are painted in “Old Rose” from Alcro. It gives a warm atmosphere, which is enhanced by the pine floorboards that are oiled in a warm brown tone.
Original double wooden doors separate the living room and the bedroom. On the living room side, they are painted white, and on the bedroom side, they are painted in a nice green shade.
The bedroom has a feature wall decorated with the “Golden Lily” wallpaper from William Morris. The other walls are painted in a light yellow shade.
Extra color accents have been added with the yellow curtains in front of the window and the curtains in front of the wardrobes.
The kitchen was recently renovated and features brown cabinets which match the pine floorboards.
Narrow green-blue tiles that work as the backsplash add a nice color accent to the room.
The hallway, which is an open space with the kitchen, is painted in a subtle green shade.
