Quirky loft home with vintage elements

My inability to select just a few pictures of this home for this blogpost already shows how big of a fan I am of this amazing place. The mixture of new and vintage items and the combination of colors and materials is so on point in this Swedish home that is not exactly minimalist, yet has a very calm look.

Let’s start with the kitchen, which has such an impressive garden door and an exposed brick wall. The warm tint of the bricks is balanced out by the clean white kitchen cabinets and the daring fresh green tiles on the wall. The living room has the same exposed brick wall, which is painted white here. The blue/green tints on the sofa, combined with the painted vintage tv cabinet, the light blue color on the wall and the deeper blue/green on the steps of the stairs work very nicely together and are paired up with beige and dusty pink linen pillow covers*, a vintage coffee table and the eye catching Spanish chair designed by Børge Mogensen*.

I love the little vintage desk by the window in the guest bedroom and the master bedroom is a truly calming space with the beige mineral wall treatment there. The rose linen bedsheets* and the patterned wool blanket* make for a very warm color palette which is topped of with a classy reading corner with the black leather vintage Eames Lounge Chair and a Grasshopper floor lamp in beige*.

I think this home is so characterful and the perfect mixture of vintage, new and personal items.
