Scandinavian Style Small Copenhagen Apartment, 40sqm/431sqft

On the ground floor of a 1936 building in Copenhagen, Denmark, architect Bara Nielsen of Studio Bara Nielsen has transformed a dark, dated 40sqm/431sqft apartment into a warm, minimalist home designed around cooking, entertaining and working from home. Removing non-load-bearing walls opened up the kitchen and living areas, with a large central island cleverly positioned between two structural pillars. A wall of oak cabinetry integrates appliances, laundry facilities and storage, while custom furniture and a modular sofa complete the living area. A long curved curtain defines the dining space and creates privacy when working from home. Reconfiguring the bedroom entrance made room for an enlarged bathroom with a dedicated shower and additional wardrobe storage, while a balcony and shared courtyard extend the living space outdoors.
