This beautiful extended 1930s house has become
a modern house that has not lost its old
character.
CLIENT’S EXPECTATION
The customer wanted to modernize their home, following an extension of the existing house towards the garden. The wish was to create a large sitting/living space while maintaining the existing kitchen. They also wanted to create a separate chill/television area for the children.
The upstairs apartment was also reorganized. The parents ‘moved’ to the attic where a bathroom was built and the children each got a new room where they wanted to have a say in color and material. They provided photos and mood boards for this.
The question was to think about the use of color, the materials, to make a proposal for the furniture and to make a lighting plan.
N.a.v. a 2D layout sketch, a choice has been made for the correct layout and furniture.
INSPIRATION
The starting point was the beautiful black steel sliding doors to the garden. To make the black of the steel stand out, black designer lighting was chosen throughout the house.
The beautiful paste cast floor in the color sludge became the starting point for the rest of the color palette in the living room. Natural materials and a calm color palette have been used, which can be adjusted at any time with accents in cushions and accessories.
