The Swedes certainly know how to do small spaces. Case in point: this small but stylish apartment, whose living room cupboard conceals a clever surprise.

This little apartment has two cupboards in the living room, one of which opens up to reveal the world’s coziest little bedroom. It’s private, tucked away, and, I would imagine, very warm and snug on a Nordic winter night. During the day you wouldn’t even know it’s there, but, unlike a Murphy bed, it doesn’t have to be folded up every morning.

The other cupboard opens up to reveal a closet, and there is, it would appear, also a little extra storage space in between. This wall of clever built-ins means that the living room can function purely as living room, and preserves a minimal, uncluttered look.

For an apartment of this size the kitchen is actually quite spacious—not unusual for an older building, where the kitchen is likely a retrofit. So there’s plenty of space to cook, enjoy your morning coffee, and maybe even have a few friends over for dinner. It’s small space living at its finest.
