MINIMAL IN STOCKHOLM

18th April 2014

Another Friday, another super-minimal apartment in Stockholm – and another example of Fantastic Frank’s cool styling. This space will either leave you swooning thanks to its sleek lines or you’ll be running for some soft furnishings – or, indeed, colour.

But I’d argue that in terms of styling a property for sale, the simplicity works here, even though I couldn’t imagine actually living in a space this bare. This loft apartment is all about volume and light, with a dramatic double-height and open plan living, dining and kitchen area (with a ceiling height of 4.5 metres) and a mezzanine level sleeping zone.

Things to love: the height of those dramatic arched windows, and the gorgeously pale wide plank oak flooring – Kährs Oak Nouveau Snow, which has a distinctive white hue that accentuates the light. This apartment has now sold – clearly to someone fairly nimble footed as that staircase looks a little too steep for my liking! – but I wanted to share this space for its cohesive and simple styling.

All this interior needs is a few smart pieces of contemporary furniture and some statement lighting, and it works.
