Wow, this week has flown by, don’t you think?! Any great plans for the weekend? I’m on a train somewhere between Munich and Kitzbühel right now – heading for a weekend hosted by ! *Excited!* It’s been all about muted colour schemes over the last few days (think whites and soothing greys) so I thought I’d complete the week with something a little different – a striking apartment in Stockholm, currently for sale through . Not only does it have beautiful bones (the work of esteemed architect Mauritz Lundstedt in 1909) it’s also been painted in an incredible deep blue for a wonderful cocoon like effect. Light grey floors and red and green accents add interest and contrast while touches of wood and lush plants add warmth. You’d never guess that it’s a mere 34 metres square (365 square feet) would you? Who said small spaces should be kept light?!

What a fantastic home?
I really love the shade of blue. It’s difficult to recommend colours as they are so personal and depend a lot on how the light falls – but there are some lovely shades in the Farrow and Ball ‘‘ collection. Perhaps you’ve got some tried and tested colour tips? If so, please let us know in the comment section below.
I also like the combination of blue, green and red, it’s so warm and inviting. And those wonderful windows in the kitchen? Perfect!
Is there anything that catches your eye?
Get the look: sitting room / dining area: vintage thonet chairs, ‘‘ pouf by Normann Copenhagen (love this!), the sofa is by . Try Nordal for a . Bedroom: task light, light grey linen bedding.
There are tonnes more beautiful homes with touches of blue (if you’re in the mood for a little more inspiration this weekend!).
Have a wonderful couple of days and see you Monday!
