Beautiful white apartment with random chairs

Seriously, how nice is this apartment? I stumbled across it in a pop-up ad for houses for sale in Sweden. This one is in the center of Malmö. It's only a small apartment, 46m2 I believe. Ok, so it's mainly the effort put into the furniture which is what I love. Sadly when you buy a place you don't get all the lovely things that this person has found. I LOVE the odd chairs around the table (big theme of last year that I wrote about, that I still love). I LOVE the white-washed everything and the organised chaos. How they painted the table, but didn't do it all tidy, but it has the paint running down the sides of the wood. How the bench also has been painted with a semi-see through paint. And being a "green" person myself, I love how the alive green plants are the main splash of colour in the room.
White may be a colour that has been used over and over again, but look what a relaxed feeling it gives here, when the rest of the layout is a bit more random! I wouldn't mind a bit more colour though: a coloured rug (my choice in this case would be a colourful recycled cloth rug, those cheapo ones you find everywhere), a throw over on the armchair or painting,etc. would be nice.
Anyway, congratulations to this homeowner on a lovely choice of furniture. I can't wait to have my own place so that I can start collecting. 

I always thought you were odd!

Dare to be unique and mix and match designer chairs with the average vintage chair you'd find at the market. This bachealour approach is exactly the right thing to do! Then add an old rustic wooden table to complete the style! Feel free to combine all different types of chairs, benches, stools. A quick and cheap way of making your own table is getting an old slab of wood from your local woodmill and lay it on top of two sawhorses.


A tree stub can become a great stool which doesnt take up much space and gives a great unique feel. Just ask at your local sawmill or firewood salesman and I'm sure you'd get it for close to nothing.
