Most of the original features are still a part of the design and this apartment has a unique charm with a modern twist.

It’s a two-room apartment with spacious rooms and airy spaces. It has white walls and ceilings throughout and this makes it seem not only larger but also fresh and airy. The wooden floors have a light finish and they’re covered with carpet for protection but also for a more inviting and cozy look. Anyone who enters this apartment gets a very pleasant feeling.

Whiteness and simplicity in a Stockholm apartment

by Alina, posted in Apartments, on May 28th, 2012

Dan’s apartment is for sale, so if you live in Stockholm and you are fond of whiteness, thus simplicity and elegance, this is your chance!Another aspect that might be interesting for you is the location, apparently in the block where the Millenium movies were shot.The whiteness not only creates a calm and serene atmosphere, but it also gives the impression of a wider space.

Actually, the apartment is small, but what is impressive is the character and the fact that it isn’t overcrowded. If you take into account the fact that it is as the best Scandi homes are, meaning white and you realize that you can simply turn it exactly the way you want.There are some splashes of color from place to place, like the orange modular sofa that animates the place.

Probably the most obvious aspect is the presence of some touches of nature all around the house, no matter they are on the wall, at the entrance or on the floor, the horns, the tortoise shell provide a personal note to the entire flat. The wooden pieces, the flowers, the guitar make everything more pleasant and inviting.

Puzzling loft in Italy by BoA Studio Architetti

by Simona Ganea, posted in Apartments, on May 25th, 2012

This modern apartment is located in Treviso, Italy. It’s situated in a small industrial area, not the best place for a quite private home. The loft was beautifully designed by Martina Cafaro and Carlo Zavan from BoA Studio Architetti with the help of a whole team. They managed to create a very intriguing décor for this loft. Situated on the last floor of the tower that’s part of an old button firm, the apartment is connected to the main part of the building through an iron and glass walkway. From there it also benefits from panoramic views of the whole surrounding area.

Since the space wasn’t originally designed for private use, some structural changes had to be made before getting to worry about the small details. The old wall partitions had to be demolished and concrete structured were installed. The loft features 45° shaped beams and six skylights plus a 5-meter open space market by two large pillars that offers 270° views over the city. The mezzanine level of the loft is occupied by the sleeping areas. It’s an autonomous volume, like a building inside a building.
