If you’re into modernism meets traditional, then this contemporary apartment design will appeal to your sense of black & white minimalism. Take for example the kitchen’s glossy black cabinets and stainless steel finishes, combined with a glass-covered wallpaper with an intricate floral design.
Or the second living room, featuring treated oak plank floors, walls papered in Elitis’ imitation leather, and a ‘royal black’ seating area with its bold statement.
A small room serves as a nursery; it’s quite compact yet Oh-so-charming. It features a custom built-in crib, designed by the apartment’s owners, accessorized with storage crates originally used by the Norwegian soda maker Asina.
Wallpaper-covered IKEA shelves provide additional storage space to this lovely room.
The all-white master bedroom has built in shelving and carpeting, as well as sleek hanging bedside lamps by Nordlux.
This modern apartment is nestled in Grünerløkka, one of Oslo’s trendiest neighborhood. It resides in a classic four-story building built in 1898 located within walking distance of Birkelunden Park.
This picture, by Espen Gees for the NY Times, has caught my eye. It reads:
“The Grunerlokka Brygghus (Brewhouse) in Thorvald Meyer Street sells craft beers and hearty food.”
