Wall colors and treatments can transform a space completely, as this cozy Swedish apartment (Styled by Martina Mattsson, photographed by Krister Engström for Kvarteret Makleri) shows. The pink entryway can be seen from both the kitchen and the living room and adds a wonderfully playful effect to the color palette of the apartment.
The living room has a natural palette, with grey walls and grey furniture pieces blending in. These grey surfaces make the vintage furniture pieces stand out, yet the real focal point in the space is the TV cabinet. This furniture piece has been painted in an eye-catching sky-blue color, adding a vibrant touch to the space.
The simple white kitchen has a two-tone wall that adds much interest to this room. The vintage dining table and chairs form a cozy spot for dining. The bedroom features a beautiful blue floral wallpaper, a rattan headboard, and a blue-painted vintage cabinet for storing clothes.
A modest living room with vintage elements and a sky-blue TV cabinet
The greige wall color in the living room has subtle green undertones, which pair well with the selection of green plants added to the space. The grey fabrics and soft furnishings blend in nicely with the wall color, while the vintage coffee table and armchair introduce a few warm wood tones.
The books on the living room bookshelf are arranged by color, introducing a playful library rainbow to the room. The vintage floor lamp and the curtains on the bottom of the bookshelf add a subtle romantic touch to the setting.
The TV cabinet is painted sky-blue, making it stand out against the subtle wall color of the living room.
A simple white kitchen with two-tone walls
The simple white kitchen is enhanced with a two-tone wall color, which adds an extra dimension to the space. The warm beige color on the bottom half of the walls adds a subtle warmth that matches the wood countertop of the kitchen.
The vintage dining table and chairs add a lot of character to the kitchen space and the gingham tablecloth fits the look perfectly.
Blue bedroom wallpaper paired with a blue-painted vintage wardrobe
The floral blue bedroom wallpaper transforms the space and adds an amazing texture to the walls. The rattan headboard stands out against the dark blue background created by the wallpaper and the mix of white and grey linen bedding brightens up the look.
A vintage crate on the wall forms the perfect bedside table, which is decorated with a vintage table lamp perfect for reading at night.
A blue-painted vintage wardrobe complements the wallpaper perfectly and I love the way you can see the clothes hanging through those glass doors.
The wall space on top of the doorway is a great spot for a wall shelf to store more books.
A small entryway with a pink wall color
The entryway is small, yet provides the apartment with a bold effect because of the choice of wall color. The vintage chest of drawers adds a characterful element to the space and the Klimt poster complements the wall color.
The original built-in closet is painted in the same pink color as the walls, with dark pink trim on the closet doors to make it stand out in the space.
