Bold pops of blue on the walls and wainscoting give this historic apartment (via Sjöman Partners) plenty of visual appeal. Personal touches throughout the home add to its already unique personality.
Creative Touches Abound in the Sunny Living Room
This lovely, large living room features wainscoting and trim painted in a bold blue, while lighter blue highlights the walls. Dark wood herringbone floors add to its already unique vibe.
A pair of bright yellow throw pillows tops the sofa, adding a vibrant pop of color to the space. The large, modern/abstract artwork adds another funky, personal element.
The thick gray area rug is strategically placed in the corner of the living room, along with a comfortable white upholstered sofa, a large coffee table, and an accent chair. This creates a cozy corner for relaxing and entertaining as you gaze out of the large windows.
An arched alcove adds architectural interest to this living room, which is accented by a beautiful built-in credenza painted in dark blue. A sleek, simple, and modern dining room set sits in this part of the room, adding another functional feature.
Explore This Fresh, White Kitchen
While the living room is defined by bold blue hues, the kitchen is stark, fresh white. This modern cooking space features white cabinets, white subway tile, and white solid surface counters with hints of gray.
Stainless steel appliances add to the kitchen’s contemporary vibe. A section of stainless steel open shelving adds more storage, breaking up the space instead of having all lower cabinets.
The rich herringbone wood floors carry into the kitchen for a seamless, cohesive feel. Recessed lighting keeps this small kitchen from feeling too crowded or closed in.
Elegant Wainscotting Continues in the Bedroom
The blue color carries into this space thanks to the bedroom wainscoting and dark blue trim. A unique floor sets the tone for this room, giving it a sense of separation from the rest of the home.
Because this is a smaller bedroom, black wall sconces on either side of the bed provide extra lighting. A white paper globe pendant light above the bed creates a soft, soothing sleeping space.
Functional Features are Added to the Hallway
In the hallway, a wall-mounted dresser with two large drawers adds convenient storage. The bold, blue, wavy wall mirror introduces guests to the whimsical designs waiting inside.
