Home 4 | Quality of life: contemporary decor in a one-bedroom apartment
If your home could tell your story, what would you want it to say? One could call this apartment a kind of autobiography: it's an ultra-considered space that paints a clear picture of the person who lives here and the things he loves. Wherever you look, style, quality and well-designed details are sure to greet you. Welcome to the good life!
Decisions, decisions...
There's no such thing as being too selective. In this apartment, every form, texture and material has been consciously chosen, and no detail has been overlooked. Warm woods and mid-century forms make regular appearances, tying the whole home together.

Generous forms and contrasting materials underpin the mid-century style of this apartment.
The museum of me
If fashion is your thing, why hide it behind wardrobe doors? In this apartment, the hallway becomes the home of a curated collection of hats and accessories - not only a statement-making welcome for visitors, but grab-and-go smartness for stepping out of the house in style.

An espresso is always a good idea

In good company
He may live solo, but this is a home where friends and family are always welcome. The dining area is the apartment's hosting hub, with an extendable table that can accommodate all the way up to ten people.
Zen zone
A space to roll out your yoga mat in the morning, or hang out with a friend after work: this balcony delivers on both. Lush greenery, lanterns, and a seriously comfy chair all set the mood for some well-deserved time out.
Inner-city green space
Pots and planters work well in generous clusters, helping to create a calming oasis – even in an apartment!
Hotel style to enjoy at homeThe upholstered bed, designed by Ola Wihlborg, is the crème-de-la-crème of classic style, comfort and quality. Learn more about selected pieces in this home and the designers who dreamed them into reality. |
Dream wardrobe
It’s taken years to build up this collection of crisp cotton shirts, cufflinks and sunglasses – and here is where they are all housed and admired. Inside organisers keep it all neat and accessible, so that every garment gets its own share of the spotlight.
Self-care everyday
We all want some time just for ourselves, but the question is when? The trick, he’s found, is creating a non-negotiable routine: short meetings with himself that he schedules just like his other commitments. From a quick early morning shower to his Sunday shaving ritual, a well-organised bathroom helps to make those “me” moments possible.
