Vibrant, Bohemian Aesthetic in a Rustic Swedish Residence
Nestled on the picturesque Swedish island of Gotland, a converted schoolhouse has undergone a remarkable transformation into a light and airy residence. The home, owned by a Swedish artist, is a stunning example of bohemian style living, blending bright and lively colours with the historic charm of the original building.
The home's interiors, styled by Copparstad for Historiska Hem, exude a harmonious balance between historic country architecture and a vibrant, bohemian interior design palette. The bohemian style is expressed through a curated yet unpretentious layering of patterns and colours, rustic furniture alongside vintage finds, and an eclectic mix of decorations that feel homey rather than overly polished.
Bright colours brighten up the cozy, country interior, contrasting with the historic limestone walls and wooden floors that keep a grounding natural feel. These colours are typically found in textiles, cushions, ceramics, and artwork. The country style living aspect is preserved in the use of natural, local materials, handmade or artisanal objects, and spaces that encourage slowing down and connecting with nature.
The home, discovered via Nordroom, is a magnificent townhouse that was previously a schoolhouse. The photography of the home was expertly captured by Boukari, highlighting the home's unique blend of historic charm and contemporary style.
