Perhaps that’s why this charming traditional red and white cottage caught my eye today? Nestled in the woods, the pretty abode feels a world away from civilisation – and yet a boat bobbing on the dock means Sweden’s capital city is within easy reach. From the exterior you’d guess that the interior is furnished using antiques, vintage finds and family heirlooms with a traditional touch. But it’s full of surprises! Let’s take a peek inside to discover more.
The black open-style kitchen has a contemporary touch – and the green wood floor givers the space a unique feel.
In the dining room and sitting room, furniture in vibrant green, red and yellow is a nod to the current trends and adds an unexpected playful touch to the interior. I like that!
The landing also offers some surprises with angular furniture and bold hues – as well as a dark wood floor. A wall mounted desk is a great way to create a home workspace in a small area.
Various patterns in the bedroom add a lovely unique touch, while the painted floor mirrors the woodland surroundings.
I love that this cottage offers something unique, it’s always fun to see! Plus, I absolutely love the idea of arriving at a summer cottage by boat – what a dream! Do you agree?
What do you think about the ‘pop of red’ trend? Do you have primary colours in your home?

Have you been watching the Olympics? I am absolutely loving it! I have a little square up on my screen while I type so I can keep an eye on the synchronised diving!
Have a fabulous start to the week!
