A Swedish apartment in typical Scandinavian style
This apartment for sale, located in a 1903 building in Stockholm, sings the praises of Scandinavian decor in a colour palette of lots of white, black and grey and of course, pine floors. Typical, but I still love it and will never tire of it. Makes for such pretty photos. I want to take a nap in each room. Via BOSTHLM.
William Morris and a Scandi boho apartment
Just when I think I can't take any more Scandi boho, white on white, bleached wood and black and white prints hung gallery style on the walls, I'm reeled right back in. Except the apartments that have me pinning and filing away images are ones that are a little more grandma boho, arts and crafts meet scandi style with a touch of sage green. I'll put it out there. I think William Morris wallpaper is so hot even after 150 years. I love this kitchen. Scandi meets Morris' Pimpernel pattern meets stainless steel (?IKEA). Via Entrance Fastighetsmäkleri.
Not quite white
Still on my mission to show that not every Swedish styled real estate listing is white on white Scandinavian boho. How about a touch of Granny chic? Not crocheted rugs and silk boho lampshades Granny chic. More traditional wallpaper, shaker style green kitchen and of course those fabulous kakelugnar. Yes there are still bare floors, rustic bleached furniture, mid century classics, an Ay Illuminate clone and a bedroom that doesn't conform to my anti-white scandi code but it's not cookie cutter. Unfortunately for us this lovely Stockholm 2 bed apartment is sold. Link here while it lasts.
Moody Scandinavian
White walls seem to be getting a bad rap this days. All those insipid white walls. There is nothing washed-out about this Swedish apartment though. Moody greys add depth and character, acting as a foil to all the Scandi white. A small 32 m2 home with style and personality recently sold by Stockholm real estate brokers Historiska Hem.
