We spotted this creative kitchen in the latest issue of Sköna Hem. This home was once a two-bedroom flat, but after the owners opened up the attic, it expanded vertically into a four bedroom apartment. In order to give the kitchen an illusion of depth, the back wall was painted a deep navy blue. We particularly love the look of the moulding on the doors and the pop of chartreuse yellow lamps hanging over the counter. Take a look at a few more photos of the this stylish home after the jump...
Creating Depth With a Dark Back Wall

The stairs to the living room/den bother me a little. I can see someone coming home late one night or up early and not quite awake and falling off the side of the staircase into the void. Other than that I love the conversion and I LOVE the desk in the office.

Man, I would love to view these photos, but there's a big fat ad covering them and I can't figure out how to close it. Hope this isn't the new MO around here...

Very nice.
Yes that desk is divine! And the kakelugn! (The tile fireplace on the right hand side of the first pic) One day my dream home will also have at least one of those beauties!
The TV in the kitchen however, is far from appealing and I would have gone for a funkier style with the charteuse lamps over the kitchen island/bar

Luff it, luff it, luff it. Even is chartreuse is a shade of green, not yellow.
No nit goes unpicked... ~:o)

This is a house in Sweden - a country where people are responsible for their own actions.

Third that on the ad -- two of them. Can't see a bloody thing, and there's no "close" option on the ads. Tell me this is just a temporary fskup, please, because it's supremely annoying.
