A 5-meter-high ceiling and a clever staircase define this spacious apartment
This renovated spacious apartment in Gothenburg has a 5-meter high ceiling and a clever, designer, retractable staircase
Located in a brick building in Gothenburg built in 1886, this spacious apartment plays with space and light. With its exposed beams adorned with greenery, a practical mezzanine, and an Italian-style kitchen, its impressive proportions command attention. A touch of greenery softens the overall look, like an unexpected nod.
Here, the past dialogues with the present, and this spectacular space remains pleasant to live in day-to-day, thanks to the sleek and practical decor. This family apartment on the top floor of this historic building is a true rarity.
From the moment you enter, the tone is set with a marble floor and an antique staircase. You climb the stairs, and suddenly the space opens up like a stage bathed in light. The ceiling soars to five meters, creating an almost theatrical effect. Light oak parquet covers the floors of the various areas. Soft gray walls and dark beams frame the space. You feel as though you’re in both an old workshop and a very contemporary interior.
The heart of the apartment is the large living area, with its striking black kitchen. It’s organized around a spacious and practical central island. The smooth cabinet fronts contrast with the light-colored countertops. Right next door, the dining room enjoys soft natural light. The ceiling drops slightly here to make the space feel more intimate. In the evening, the subtle lighting and the stove create a cozy atmosphere.
The living room, situated under the sloping roof, is brightly lit by high windows that act as skylights. Low-profile furniture and neutral tones let the architecture take center stage. The retractable staircase appears or disappears as needed with the push of a button. It leads to the mezzanine, which has been converted into a bedroom. The sleeping area is more intimate. Two bedrooms offer a restful setting with simple materials and soothing colors.
