This beautiful turn-of-the-century apartment in Sweden is really quite something. The building has the most impressive historic architectural details that make it one of a kind and the minimal yet eclectic interior design style complements these beautiful features perfectly.

The living and dining room has a beautiful hardwood ceiling with ornate detailing in a warm wood tone, which takes away all the attention when entering the space, while the rest of the apartment has a more modest look. The neutral color palette in the eclectic interior design complements the historic details perfectly, without overpowering them.

A subtle eclectic style in a gorgeous living room with wood ceilings

Since the elaborate detailing in the ceiling of the living room adds so much visual interest to the space, the color palette has been kept very neutral to complement the warm wood tones.

The large rectangular dining table by the window forms the perfect neutral base in combination with the parquet flooring, while the warm wood dining chairs add an additional wood tone to the mix.

The organically shaped wood art piece in the middle of the table is the focal point in the dining area, and I love that this piece gets reflected in the mirror hanging between the two windows.

The polka dot sofa is paired up with polka dot throw pillows, an elegant marble coffee table set, and a subtle black and white area rug that brightens up the warm wood tones in this section of the living room.

The long wall shelf on the wall is ideal for displaying accent pieces, while the two mirrors on each side of the room reflect the natural light coming through those big windows. The area above the sofa has been decorated with a gallery wall and I love the subtle color palette in the wall art, which goes nicely with the different styles of furniture in this space.

The design style of this space integrates clean lines and a sleek minimalist feel with an eclectic design style, which perfectly summarizes eclectic minimalism.

A minimal kitchen combined with vintage pieces for an eclectic interior design

The eclectic minimalism decor style is continued in the kitchen as well, where new elements are combined with vintage pieces. The two-tone kitchen cabinets give the interior a modern look, yet by adding a vintage upper cabinet and vintage plate shelves on top of two of the kitchen modules, the kitchen gets a subtle eclectic feel with lots of character.

I think the simplicity and minimalism of the modern kitchen cabinetry complement the elaborate aesthetic of the vintage pieces and both create an interesting mix of styles.

The large kitchen window has been painted in the same color as the lower kitchen modules for an integrated effect. The green color also comes back inside the beautiful vintage vitrine cabinet and adding color in such a strategic place, makes your eye focus on it immediately.

The small round dining table combined with the black Fritz Hansen Ant chairs has found the perfect spot in front of the window and I feel it ties the layout of the room together nicely.

Eclectic minimalism in a neutral color palette bedroom and home office space

The color palette of the bedroom is probably the most neutral one in this apartment. The ceiling and the crown molding have been painted in a beige paint color, while the walls have been kept white. The ceiling color accentuated the asymmetry of this spacious bedroom, which contains both a bed and a home office area.

A large rug with a soft texture and black-and-white patterns separates the sleeping area from the office functionality while the long sideboard adds extra storage space in front of the window. The two vintage Louis Poulsen Panthella table lamps add variety to the interior and two art prints with deep colors are hung up above them.

The vintage desk combined with the vintage linen cabinet adds a different aesthetic to the home office area, which makes this room a perfect mixture of eclectic minimalism elements. The Flos Snoopy lamp in black and the Dora Maar vase from Jonathan Adler are the perfect accent pieces needed to finish off this home decor and they are the finishing touch to the natural elements in the wood tones of the furniture and soft furnishings.
