From a home on the coast of West Denmark on Tuesday to the Norwegian capital today, it’s been a very Scandinavian week here on the blog. While the coastal property was set among the dunes and awash with soothing pale blues, this beautiful light-filled flat in Old Oslo is flooded with golden sunshine that highlights touches of red, burgundy, yellow — and even light blue (which appears to be a favourite right now!).
The flat belongs to Juni Halseth Strenberg, who recently moved from this vibrant home. Granted, the renovation of her new home is still a work in progress, but I love seeing how her furniture has settled right in.
There are many things I love about Juni’s unique style, but what really caught my eye were the bedrooms. They are narrow, yes, but they make a true statement, with the ceilings becoming a design feature in themselves, while also helping to visually bring down the height of the rooms. I also love the patterned window dressings! And of course, there's that spotty sofa too!
Ready to take a look? Velkommen inn!
I thought you might be curious about some of the colour codes in the bedroom, so here they are:
Single bedroom
Window frame and skirting boards: 'Light' from Jotun
Walls: 'Soul' from Jotun
Ceiling: code S2005-B
Curtains: Sweet pea dove blue
Double bedroom
Window frames and skirting boards: 'Light' from Jotun
Curtains: sweet pea burgundy from Gotain
I have to say, I love all the curtains, they really bring together the rooms! Are there any details that caught your eye?

Have a fantastic weekend all! Thank you, as always for stopping by, it really means so much!

The pillow and curtain fabric in the small bedroom in addition to the ceiling light and plaster work around the ceiling all add the perfect amount of interest! It would be a lovely room to dream in! The other bedroom is equally gorgeous. The use of color there shows that the designer understands balance. The spotty couch is super cute! We are having ideal spring weather here in the Midwest US this weekend and I am wishing you the same.

Remember Juni's previous apartment well. Love the way she brings together warm-cool colors, neutrals, greenery. The printed curtains caught my eye too,.. while personally prefer plain, these are pleasant and pretty. Isn't it strange that those with lower ceilings work to pump it up, while ones with tall ceilings work to bring it down☺ The urns over the glass cabinet are lovely.
ReplyDeleteWe have had a very mild winter. The fruiting cherry, apple trees along with rhododendrons are in full bloom. Will have sunny weather for the next few days. Thank you and have a refreshing weekend☺
Love, love, love all the ceilings in every room !
ReplyDeleteI took a peek back at her previous home and enjoyed it all over again. She has used some of her signature style in the new home, with fresh touches. Happy to see the cheerful red cabinet in this home, too. Those bedroom ceilings are beautiful. What a treat to stare up at those before drifting off to sleep at night!
