A Studio Apartment with Plaster Walls and a Walnut Kitchen
Living in a studio apartment comes with its challenges, but that doesn’t mean your tiny home can’t be beautiful. This 30-square-meter studio apartment in Stockholm was renovated from top to bottom and now features warm plaster walls and ceilings, a new kitchen with walnut cabinets, and a plant-filled balcony.
The entire apartment, from the walls to the ceiling, has been given a plaster finish, which instantly gives the apartment a lived-in and cozy feeling. The entire studio has a pared-back and cozy vibe thanks to the natural materials, plaster walls, and pastel color accents. This way, living in a studio apartment is a delight.
The home is a corner apartment so it has windows on two sides, making it a light home. Floor-to-ceiling doors open to the balcony, which extends the living space in warmer months.
The owners opted for a clear material, color, and texture palette with muted color tones, warm wooden furniture, and a rustic side table that adds charm.
The balcony is a peaceful oasis with a wooden deck, garden furniture, barbecue, and well-tended plantings.Â
In studios, you often see the furniture placed against the walls, but I like that the owners of this one-room apartment chose to place the dining table in the center of the home with the sofa on one side and the bed on the other. The built-in cabinet by the bed can be hidden with the curtain, adding texture to the space while also keeping it tidy.
The kitchen, which makes full use of the ceiling height, has doors, drawers, and open shelves made of walnut, while the worktop is made of light composite stone. The little niche in the back is perfect for the fridge.
The bathroom was renovated last year and is completely designed with microcement, which gives it a stylish, calm, and harmonious look.
The shower has small corner shelves for soap and all the fittings are made of brass.
The hallway offers plenty of storage space in the shape of a built-in cabinet and a storage piece made of pine.
