Both Malmö and Copenhagen are beautiful cities with unique personalities and plenty of Scandinavian design inspiration. But today, on the blog, I am taking you to a third city: Gothenburg. And not just anywhere, but inside this dreamy apartment.
This home stole my heart the moment I saw it. It’s bright, full of character, and has that perfect mix of old charm and thoughtful updates. Built back in 1889, it still has all those gorgeous old details, high ceilings, ornate stucco, tall windows, and even a ceiling rose (always a winner in my book). Together they create a lovely, light-filled atmosphere that’s full of personality.
The hand-painted kitchen, from Swedish brand Kvänum, is another standout. I also love the colours the owners chose for the bedrooms – deep, soothing tones that make the rooms feel calm and cocoon-like. The master is painted a soft blue, and the children’s room is a rich plum that looks amazing with the ochre wall lamp. (And while you’re looking through the photos, don’t miss the wall sculpture and the gallery wall — such a nice touch in the living room).
Ready to take a look around? Välkommen, as they say in Sweden.
The use of color is outstanding. The blue is one of my favorite shades; the other colors lovely as well. : > )
ReplyDeleteA beautiful home with beautiful bones. Love that plum color!
ReplyDeleteYES! So happy to see color, pattern mixing, and florals in te bedding! I’m getting so tired of monochromatic and uninteresting in the United States. Bring on the excitement and color!
ReplyDeleteI also love the colors and patterns that I see here. This is a sweet apartment. I had to laugh at your hotel curtains description. My mom had sheers, with heavier curtains for privacy, and would have been amused if anyone thought she was being fancy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and cozy home.
ReplyDeleteLove the windows and the plum coloured walls in the children's bedroom. Not sure how I feel about the manchester, although I do like patterned sheets.
ReplyDeleteI love the mixture of styles and colours!
ReplyDeleteThe mirrored wardrobe is very beautiful...
ReplyDeleteI am normally infatuated with kitchens/dining/living rooms and they are lovely here, too, but I was completely smitten with the bedrooms. The children’s room especially feels like a dreamy fairy tale.
ReplyDeleteThat kitchen countertop is stunning. Recently, we stayed in a b&b in Italy with the same one and I absolutely fell in love with everything about it. :)
ReplyDeleteThat wardrobe in the childrens' bedroom though...sigh!!!
ReplyDeleteTodo muy cálido y espectacular 😍😍😍😍😍😍
