An open plan kitchen can help you make the most of your space, especially when you live in a smaller apartment. This home (Styled by Livin Deco, photographed by Mariette Svensson for Stadshem) is brilliantly laid out with a living kitchen and a small bedroom. But the crowning glory is its exposed brick walls. The natural color palette throughout, combined with a clever floor plan, makes this space a tranquil yet trendy retreat.
Living Kitchen with Exposed Brick
The kitchen flows into the dining room, which in turn flows into the living room, creating a large area with seamless transitions from one space to the next. Whether it’s all hands on deck or one cook to rule them all, whoever is in the kitchen won’t be cut off from what’s happening in the living room.

The kitchen has a small countertop with a sink and stove with oven set against a white-painted brick backsplash. The white vintage kitchen cabinets contrast nicely with the black vintage style refrigerator, which rounds out the look.


One of the vintage cabinets has a small countertop space that works great as a coffee corner.

Beyond the kitchen is the dining area, set against an exposed brick wall. Two large windows immediately draw the eye, their white wood casings a stylish contrast to the rustic feel of the brick. Wide sills offer space for house plants or personal objects to bring warmth and personality to the space.


Cozy Living Room with Creamy White Walls and Marble Style Floor
The cozy living room sits off to the side of the dining room. Creamy white walls and white-painted hardwood flooring create a comfortable, cozy space without feeling cramped.

There’s access to the kitchen through a doorway at the end of the living room, right next to the stunning French doors that lead into the bedroom.


Charming Bedroom with Soft Taupe Walls
The bedroom may be small, but the possibilities for this room are not. There’s a lot you can do with this space to make it your sanctuary. It easily accommodates a queen-sized bed.

The soft taupe walls make the room feel closer, but in a cozy way. The well-placed mirror and carefully chosen art open up the space and make it appear larger.


Compact Bathroom with Charcoal Base Vanity and White Tile Walls
The compact bathroom features a small vanity with a generous sink, a charcoal base, and cabinets. A white tile wall treatment adorns the vanity area and the full-size shower. Black and white patterned tile flooring adds a fun, fashionable touch to the overall look.

The powder room is finished off with a grey wall and stainless steel wall shelving for a more modern look and feel.

Hallway with Soft Taupe Walls and White Wood Accents
The hallway’s light taupe walls and white wood accents are subtly lovely and very inviting. A shelf with pegs for coats and bags hangs on one wall, and through the door, the rest of the home.
