This beautiful turn-of-the-century apartment in Sweden has a beautiful curved window in the living room and subtle blue-grey walls that are complemented by a combination of warm soft furnishings and accessories. A custom-built bookshelf extends over the living room doorway and provides a true focal point to the room.
The sage green kitchen adds another color palette to the interior design and has a slight industrial touch because of the subway tiles on the wall.
A living room with light blue-grey walls and a custom-built bookshelf
The beautiful turn-of-the-century living room with white crown molding and white-soaped hardwood flooring is painted in a light blue-grey wall color. It’s actually a light grey with a strong blue undertone and depending on the angle from which you look at the walls, it can get a more blue or grey appearance.
The living room decor itself is quite simple, with a few light blue accents to bring out the blue undertones in the wall color. It’s the custom-built bookshelf that extends over the doorway to the hallway that is the real focal point in the space. The bookshelf is painted in the same color as the wall for a tone-on-tone effect that makes the white doorframe stand out in a lovely way.
The neutral beige fabric sofa combined with the textured area rug in cream and the sheer white curtains in front of the window set the stage for a few blue and beige colored accessories that really stand out in combination with the backdrop of the light blue-grey walls.
A larger section in the custom bookshelf has a mirror on the backside, which reflects the space and adds extra dimension to the shelving as if it’s an open piece from which you can look into the other room.
Crown-molding has been applied to the top of the bookshelf, which finishes its look off nicely and adds a historic touch to the new element that fits the time period of the apartment itself.
A sage green kitchen with a subway tile backsplash
The kitchen has a Nordic-industrial look with a combination of , eye-catching black pendant lights above the counter, and a that goes all the way up to the ceiling.
The modest palette is finished off with cement countertops and stainless steel hardware that is matched by a in chrome.
A niche in the kitchen wall is turned into open shelving for kitchen accessories and the area in front of the window is a great spot for a round dining table.
A narrow niche spot is used to place higher cupboards including the fridge. This is a great spot for it allowing the rest of the kitchen layout to consist of lower cabinets only, providing it with a lighter look.
A bedroom with light grey walls and subtle blue accents
The bedroom is painted in a light grey wall color which is much more neutral than the one used in the living room. The blue accent colors in the art print and the throw pillows give this space a similar color palette, tying the color palette of both rooms together.
A tiny hallway with light blue-grey walls
The hallway is really small, yet it ties together nicely with the decor in the rest of the space because of the wall color. The small wall shelf above the heater in combination with the black-framed oval mirror works perfectly in this spot and allows the light from the other rooms to be reflected in the hallway.
