It seems like I every Home tour beginning with “Today a very special Home tour … ‘, but that it is true every time! Each house where I write about and share with you is each one beautiful and special. Especially if there is a piece of the background known occupant.
So today again a very special Home tour of Isabella McAllister, an on the internet very well known interior designer, designer and blogger of the famous and super inspiring blog Dosfamily.com.
Along with her family, consisting of her husband and two children, Isabella lives in an apartment located in the popular district of Södermalm. The apartment, where they have lived in for more than nine years, she had put on sale. Not because they thought it was not pretty, but the 73m2 and two bedrooms are still just not big enough. In the same nice neighborhood so they have found a slightly larger house.
However, this does not mean that the old apartment has meant nothing for the family. In fact, they’re just become a family. Nine years ago, she moved in with a friend. They are literally married in the home, the children have put the first steps, they have had many quarrels, which they immediately made good, they have fallen asleep in the bath … In short, they have a lot of good memories kept on about.
Open and bright interior
But this is not all, because in addition to all the good memories, the interior decor of the apartment is super fun. The main reason why I want to share it with you. The interior designer also has some fantastic fun ideas and tips, which she has applied itself in its interior.
When they bought this apartment, it was divided in several small rooms with many walls. The kitchen was long and narrow, the living room and bedrooms were super small and the style of the interior was very dated. They wanted to create more open and bright spaces. Therefore, they have created a new format, by removing some big walls.
Now it has become a very nice large living room with open kitchen with lots of light. The large wall in the nursery has been removed. Instead of the wall, they have placed a sturdy door. The idea was to create more light in the room, but that way the kids could be in their room while they easily could keep an eye on them.
White colored walls and floors
The old wooden floor Isabelle has completely sanded and fine painted white. This gave the opportunity to correct the walls or to give a nice color. To the not too messy and chaotic leave out, every door is painted in the same color as the wall next to it. A good tip Isabella! And believe me, she knows about it, because they are super often changed the colors for different assignments.
Stylish kitchen wall
One of the favorite elements of the interior is the kitchen wall. The white kitchen wall consists of different types of tiles, which Isabella at that time had gathered together. Before the tiles on the wall put it, she had the first time on the ground puzzled until she was satisfied with the result. Together with her father when she was on the kitchen wall masonry. According to her, this is also the best way to spend time with her father.
The important thing is that you can clearly see that the overall picture of the decor just right. It looks beautiful!
Oh, and the apartment has obviously been already sold.
