A Dreamy, Light-Filled Home in Stockholm (20 photos)

Billgren spent her early years in Gothenburg, in western Sweden, but moved to Stockholm when she was 10. She loves the Södermalm area, especially the hidden green nook that makes up her neighborhood.

“These houses were built around 1928 with large families in mind and a neoclassical style,” she says. “They face a large courtyard, full of chestnut, elderberry and other trees, where the kids could play freely. I do not know exactly how many kids they had in our apartment, but it was not unusual that they had six in this little one-bedroom flat.

“The apartments in the houses have no fancy stucco or stoves, but huge windows and plenty of clever storage there are seven built-in wardrobes and cupboards here!”
