Clarity as a concept
Villa B isn’t a statement piece. It’s a home. Born from the desire to live generously without showing off. It’s elegant, yes. But never distant. Open, but not exposed. A family built this place. And we had the privilege to think alongside them. Not just in terms of color palettes, materials, or furniture, but the entire experience. We reshaped floorplans, shifted flows, and softened transitions. Spaces that were once purely functional gained a new logic. One that doesn’t jump out at you. But quietly stays with you.
A welcome that starts at the door
In every one of our interior design projects, the entrance gets special attention. Not because you linger there, but because this is where the feeling of home begins. It’s more than just a threshold. It’s the space between outside and in. For residents, it bridges the public and the private. For guests, it offers a glimpse into what lies beyond. At Villa B, that was the starting point: a long oak wall conceals storage and doors. In front of it, a bench invites you to pause and hides more storage inside. It flows seamlessly into the staircase. Slim light strips echo the rhythm of daylight, adding movement to the clean geometry. It’s an entrance that welcomes. That tells you what home can feel like.
Spaces that step back
Villa B was never about showcasing size. It was about creating something truly thoughtful. Spaces that pull back. That don’t ask for much, but give a lot. Take the bedroom. Or the bathroom. Almost hidden behind long custom oak panels—quiet, minimal. Not to conceal, but to calm the eye. To keep the atmosphere open. In the dressing area, a clever twist: a full-height mirror plays with perspective, making a compact space feel like a long corridor. Soft, integrated lighting isn’t just functional. It’s intentional. The entire space is understated. Natural tones, tactile materials, furniture that whispers rather than shouts. Nothing demands attention. Yet everything contributes to a feeling of harmony. Unforced. Natural. And quietly, unmistakably home.
A place to exhale
We love when rooms do more than you expect. A bathroom isn’t just a place to get ready. It can be a retreat. A pause. A moment of calm. Especially when life moves fast. In Villa B, the bathroom is both simple and warm. Travertine, oak, earthy colors. Everything feels quiet, but never dull. The materials complement rather than compete. And the lighting? Soft, precise, and placed exactly where you need it. Not a wellness spa. But a place that feels good.
Living with texture
The textured lime plaster walls don’t need art or decoration. They speak for themselves. The lighting concept complements that. Subtle, yet powerful. Every fixture was carefully chosen: like 1960s wall sconces or the “Canvas Chair” by Børge Mogensen, a Danish classic that radiates calm and character. Nearby: TURN ME, our PEAM side table, easily adjusted with one hand. For more height or more surface, depending on the moment. It’s these refined, well-considered details that don’t just make a space beautiful—but make it feel alive.
Cooking, living, working—with a view
Upstairs lies the heart of the home: a spacious kitchen that opens into the living and dining area. But the real highlight? The view. Large windows face south, offering a panoramic look at the mountains, setting the tone for the entire space. As in many of our interior design concepts, the kitchen takes center stage. The homeowners love to cook and often host guests. Naturally, the generous kitchen island became everyone’s favorite spot. It’s where meals happen. Life happens. Even work happens. The island is generously designed, surrounded by seamless storage and clean lines. Soft curves balance the raw cement flooring and natural stone tiles. But what anchors this space is the view. The openness outside reflects the atmosphere within.
