Modern Apartment in Sweden

It's a beautiful sunny morning here. Hope your Sunday is beautiful too.
This apartment is featured on the Alvhem real estate site. A modern, stylish apartment in an 1880 property in Linnestaden, Sweden. Would you take it as it is, or would you add some more colour? Love to know!


Facade typical of Linnestaden buildings.


The entrance of the building with original tiles.


A light under the staircase not only lets you watch your step but highlights the pattern of the steps.


Soft palette and modern furniture in the ample living room. Wooden boards for the floors.


Wallpaper on one of the living room walls adds interest to the room.


There are three Swedish stoves - called kakelugn - in this apartment. The second one is in the bedroom and yet another one in the dining room. Notice how they added a light behind this one.


Reading nook in the living room.





Close up of the Swedish stove.








Some bread and cheese for me please.


Green hues in the kitchen.
















And the third stove in a corner of the dining room.

More images right here while they last, remember this site takes the pictures down once the property is sold. Sometimes they leave them up for a few days.

Have a great Sunday and see you tomorrow!

Bright White Apartment

Beware all white loathers! Flee while you can! Today we have a white and a little black Swedish style apartment from real estate site Alvhem. White is cheery, youthful and easy to combine.
Let me know what you think!








Oh, I don't know, to me, that lampshade looks upside down!

This apartment has been sold so I don't know if the pictures will still be here.

Apartment in Sweden

We've been looking at so many houses that I think it's time for an apartment today. This one is in Nordhemsgatan hill, Linnéstaden in Sweden. It's from a real estate firm and I guess it has been staged to sell. Even so, I find it youthful and attractive. Let me know what you think!


I like the barrel for a night table.


























This would be the entrance to the apartment and not the main entrance of the building. They could have swept the pavement before taking this pic. There's a nail and tidbits on the pavement hehe. I don't quite like the bathroom so I'm not including it in this post but if you'd like to see it go straight ahead to the real estate site Alvhem right here.

Spacious Attic in Madrid

Two apartments in one. The owners bought the apartment next door, tore down the dividing walls and made this spacious home. Of course they had quite a lot of work to do. The ceilings had to be lowered in some of the rooms to level them and the whole flooring was changed.












Two sitting areas were created in the big living room. Two original Dutch barrels as coffee tables.


The painted wooden floors appear in every room (except the bedroom), even in the kitchen and bathroom.





I like the bedroom with the exposed beams but I think that chair belongs by the pool!

White Apartment in Paris

I've said it before, I'll say it now and I'll surely say it again even if it bores you to tears: I love white interiors! So, yet another post with white everywhere. This time combining white with just a touch of wood here and there. This apartment is in La Belle Paris, City of Lights, of fragrant baguettes and mouth watering croissants... ahh I could go on but I'll just leave you to enjoy these photographs.









So, do you like white rooms, is this your style? I'd love to know!
