Woah, this week has gone fast, don’t you think? I thought it would be fun to wrap up with a fascinating little Swedish apartment that’s filled with quirky touches and lovely ideas for the weekend – what do you reckon?
Formerly a milk shop, the 28 metres square (301 square feet) ground floor living space in Stockholm is made up of a kitchen, bathroom and one room that combines the hallway, sitting room and bedroom. While the overall look is earthy and calm, there are some fun details – like a blue door and stripes and other touches that bring a contemporary vibe to the space.
I also love the use of textiles, sheepskins and cushions throughout which add a really cosy feel for autumn.
Välkommen in!
Repurposed textiles like antique embroidered sheets have become really popular as window treatments. Here, a lovely old sheet has been clipped up in the window to prevent prying eyes from peeping in – while still allowing light to flow in from above.
I love the old coffee table too – so beautiful and warm!
The entrance may be small – but the owners have more than made up for it with plenty of storage. The mirror doors help to bounce around the light and brighten up the space – as well as help the storage to fit in seamlessly.
Doors can take up a surprising amount of space. Here, a cute yellow curtain has been used to close off the kitchen from the main living area.
When space is tight you need to make use of every inch. Sorting boxes have been nailed to the side of the chest of drawers to keep paperwork in order.
A simple curtain can be pulled across for privacy at night.
Curtains have also been used in the kitchen to hide less aesthetic items like the recycling bins.
I love how the inside of the cutlery drawer has been painted blue for an element of surprise! Could you imagine doing something like this?
What a special little space – so well thought out and unique.
Did you enjoy this tour too? Any ideas that stood out to you that you might implement in your home?
Have a fabulous couple of days – thank you so much for stopping by and for all your thoughtful comments. I look forward to pouring myself a coffee this weekend and responding to reading through them all and responding to each and everyone of them.
Stor kram and happy Friday!
