A Light Swedish Studio in an Early 20th Century Building

In an attractive location in Gothenburg stands an early 20th century building housing a lovely studio apartment with a separate kitchen. The 42 square meters has recently undergone renovation work, adding a new kitchen, painting the walls, and oiling the beautiful original parquet floor, making it the star feature of the small home.

The high ceilings, large windows, and original elements create a perfect base for the studio apartment. It is decorated by Emma Fischer in a muted color palette of natural tones and layered textiles, creating a comfortable home.

The combined living room and bedroom is a spacious room with large windows and high ceilings, creating an airy atmosphere. The floor, an original oiled herringbone parquet, is one of the apartment’s finest features and adds a classic elegance to the space.

The room features the original wooden floorboards, and the built-in cabinet in the corner hides the fridge. The deep window sill can be turned into a charming bar table.

There is enough room for a comfortable dining table, especially if you would add a built-in bench in the niche.
