A Fresh White, Green and Brown Swedish Home Dotted With Plants

Hi there campers! How’s your Monday going? I’m feeling way better since discovering this apartment a few hours ago. The light and airy Swedish flat is full of the joys of spring (in Sweden there’s not a single leaf on the trees yet BUT the light and the birds are starting to return returned, and that makes all the difference!). Measuring a mere 62 metres square (667 sqf), the space has been decorated in a simple white, brown and green colour palette against a light coloured backdrop, and there’s a beautiful plant around every corner! I quite fancy a coffee in the morning sunshine on the balcony too, fancy joining me?!

How pretty is this kakelugn (tiled oven) with the delicate botanical detail?!

Placing plants and ‘outdoor items’ just inside a balcony door like this is a clever styling trick. It adds to the flow – melting the outside with the outdoor space.

Mantis table lamp* (I’ve got the same one in my home and love it – it constantly gets moved around! The wall version is pretty fab too – as seen in the home of Lovisa Häger).

Monday mornings are always tricky (you should have seen the chaos in our house this morning – both kids went to school with odd gloves on) but this lovely space has totally lightened my mood and got me in better spirits to kick off the week.

How has your day looked so far? I hope this apartment has given you a spring in your step too – or at least brightened up your day!

These homes are also great for inspiration:

A charming natural family home in Normandy

Have a wonderful start to the week!
