When I came across this lovely Swedish-style home in Sydney today, it was the bathroom that really made me sit up and take notice. Although small in size, it speaks volumes in terms of simple yet clever Scandinavian style.
Located in Kensington, the two-bedroom apartment has been beautifully renovated by its owner Frag Woodhall, a product and industrial designer. Developed around the idea of 'Swedish Summer Cabin', that enviable Scandinavian mix of simplicity, minimalism and functionality is seen throughout, especially the bathroom. Rich Baltic Russian pine wall-panelling creates warmth, while black tapware provides contrast and interest to the predominantly white space. Then there is that incredible sliding re-machined door. It really gives the room an edge, don't you think?

The one-man renovation project, with Frag being both designer and builder, took nine months to complete. Along with the typical Scandinavian monochrome palette, Swedish influences are seen in every room. I love the interchangeable wall hanging cabinetry that sits on a peg rail in the kitchen above. Charming yet unpretentious, this home has an incredibly fresh and welcoming feel.
