APARTMENT FOR A FAMILY WITH TWINS

2023, Stockholm

 

Refurbishment of a 1980s apartment south of Stockholm. It’s a three room apartment for a family with two twin boys. The 80-s typology is a deep plan apartment with lots of darker space in the center of the apartment. This space has been transformed and compacted to house storage and workspace, in order to give the other rooms a more open, spacious plan. The twin room is divided by a low wall, resulting in a separated play area and sleeping area. The sleeping area has been given two narrow doors, a playful twin soloution and a way of giving more light to the hallway. The primary colours red, blue and yellow together with bespoke furniture were used to give the interior a strong new identity.
