Scandinavian duplex interior design in Madrid

by Simona Ganea, posted in Apartments, on December 15th, 2011

If it weren’t for the title I’m sure you would have never guessed this residence was located in Madrid. The interior décor is more similar to the ones found in Sweden and it has a Scandinavian feel. But, yet again, it’s an example that shows us the location is irrelevant and that you can recreate your favorite decors anywhere in the world.

The pictures here have been taken in a duplex in Madrid. It’s a small place and it only measures 100 square meters in total. Nevertheless, it’s an airy and bright home. It’s filled with classic furniture pieces with designs inspired from the 50s and 60s. It’s that mid-century modern classic style that some people talk about. This particular style is also characterizes by the fact that you can find there all the great names like Eames, Eero Saarinen, Arne Jacobsen, Poul Henningsen, Hans J. Wegner, Finn Juhl, oul Kjærholm, Verner Panton, Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier etc. It’s like they’ve all decided to have a meeting there.

Inviting White Swedish Apartment With Vintage Fireplaces

by Simona Ganea, posted in Apartments, on December 14th, 2011

Scandinavian residences feature a very specific style and they have that unique warm feeling that can’t be avoided, no matter what materials or colors you use. This apartment is the perfect example to illustrate this idea. This is an almost completely white apartment. And even though white is a very cold and impersonal color, in this case it doesn’t extend its attributes over the apartment.

Swedish Apartment With Vintage Fireplaces

This is still a very inviting and warm place. The white décor also makes the apartment seems larger than it actually is. It’s something that can be applied anywhere and a trick that comes in very handy in the case of small homes. This apartment is not small but not extremely big either. It’s beautiful, spacious and bright and it features large doors and windows. The most striking feature about this apartment is, of course, the white interior.

Amsale Aberra’s Stylish New York Loft

by Simona Ganea, posted in Apartments, on December 14th, 2011

This chic and stylish apartment belongs to bridal gown designer Amsale Aberra. The apartment is located in New York, on the 5th floor of an industrial building in the Garment District. I’ve always been curious to see how exactly does the home of bridal gown designer looks like. These designers are used to work with white all the time, with lace and puffy materials and I wonder if they really like this or if they can’t wait to go home and relax in their simple apartment.

Now we finally have the opportunity to take a look at such an apartment. In this case the apartment is obviously similar to the materials and textures that the designer works with. The influence is very visible. Notice how all the walls have been painted in Benjamin Moore Super White. It’s hard to believe that this is just a coincidence. This either means that this designer really loves this job or that the time spent designing white bridal gowns has irreversibly changed their perception. Amsale Aberra’s apartment is very chic and has an extremely delicate interior décor.
