This apartment in Gothenburg, Sweden has it all: volume, location, outdoor space, and a mix of contemporary style with old materiality. Plus, you've gotta love those red Chesterfields:
Lucky for us, it was on the market through Swedish real estate brokerage firm Stadshem, so we get to see the awesome interiors.
This place is full of inspiration for apartment-dwellers. Our favorite detail (besides the sofas, of course!)? It's the "coat closet" in the entryway. Hanging coats flat against the wall on hooks and hangers is a perfect way to demarcate an entryway where there isn't a defined architectural space. Orienting them parallel to the wall would help keep coats out of the way in a tight space. The entryway is completed by a low credenza that separates it from the living space.
Now, there is a ton of other great inspiration here. Tell us, what's your favorite detail?

The modular/cube shelving!
I love it all but the kitchen backsplash stands out to me - I love the contrast between the backsplash and cabinetry.
I love all the plants!
Wish I could get a close up of the coat rack/Display. Anyone know who makes it? Cant tell from the photo
Hate them.
Not jealous of all that gorgeousness at all, nope, not me.
*sigh*
Those red chesterfields!!
LOL! I agree with kelliblue all the way. :)
These people have style. Loving many elements including the red chesterfields, the unadorned windows but most especially the backsplash in the kitchen. Anyone know what exactly that is?
Thumbs up!
Wow. The Chesterfields! The tall, deep windows! The metal-looking backsplash! The light!
I like that they chose a taller-than-regulation coffee table. I hate low tables that you're expected to actually PUT things on.
Wow, love all of it, but yes, those modular cubes AND the storage/wardrobe in the bedroom are especially coolio. And the windows with those deep sills.
Hm, I'm actually thinking about getting a plain IKEA wardrobe and drilling a pattern of holes in it....
The backsplash looks a little like slate but it's cubic shelving that makes my heart skip a beat.
The windows in this place are just amazing...all that natural light. Love every inch of it.
I like how they emphasize the architectural symmetry by arranging some of the furnishings symmetrically.
