Warm Pink Walls and a Glass Room Divider in a Small Stockholm Apartment

On the fifth floor of an early 20th-century apartment building in Stockholm, you will find this charming small apartment with warm pink and aubergine walls and a glass room divider between the kitchen and the bedroom.

When you step into the 35 square meter apartment, you are greeted by beautiful, original, south-facing windows in deep niches. The apartment’s high location means you can see much of the sky when looking out of the windows, and together with the high ceilings, it makes the small home feel bigger.

The living room is a very beautiful room with a ceiling rose, stucco, chest panels, and the original windows. The entire apartment features wooden floorboards, adding a warm, natural glow to the interior spaces.

The walls are painted in a warm, powder pink tone called Masquerade by Little Greene. It adds warmth to the space and makes the original elements like the white-painted chest panels and moldings stand out beautifully.

A half wall with an inner window turned one larger room into two separate areas with a cozy nook for a double bed, without losing natural light in the kitchen zone.

The cozy bedroom area is just big enough for a double bed and features warm beige walls. The deep window niche of the large, original window can be used as a bedside table.
