A Fabulous, Techy Swedish Home

The Swedish are becoming commonly known for their heavenly ultra-modern design style. (Just picture IKEA with a personalized touch and slightly edgy twist- everyone’s doing it!) Shown below are those brilliant white walls, grounding hardwood floors, simple furniture and practical accessories that typically define the unfussy Swedish lifestyle. But in this tech savvy home, the electronics are cleverly hidden in plain sight amongst the perfectly white walls- which makes this living space certifiably Fabulous!

The huge projection screen suspended above the door goes undetectable and is probably the last thing you’ll notice upon your grand entrance. It allows for more focus on this modern art piece by Konstnär Göteborgs.

The visual interest here lies in the colorful fabric, mixed modern organic forms and textural contrast of the accessories (techy or otherwise.)

Check out the headphone rest!

And who would ever guess that this virtually invisible cabinet from IKEA was housing a serious DVD collection on the wall?

A pop of color from this funky floral chandelier will draw your eye away from electronics like the Wall Mounted CD Player placed in dead center of this dining room.

Look Mom! No window curtains! And Mom replies, “The better to see our fabulous wall-clippings my dear…”

Imposing Contemporary Residence in Atlanta, Georgia

The Ashely Avenue residence comes from TaC Studios and is located in Atlanta, Georgia. We think this place defines the trend that has captured architecture recently. You are looking at a compact home with very large interiors, two levels, a mix of modern and classical furniture and an interesting outdoor pool. We featured this house because it has a lot of interesting and detailed angles of site, a various interior design and quite a few inspiring elements. We particularly like the spiral stairs- even though they probably take up a whole lot of space, the wide living room with the focus on the piano and the fireplace window. Still, we think this home is not very well defined and resembles a lot of residences you’ve probably seen on Freshome before. Tell us if you agree.
