The simple yet highly experimental architecture recreates a Scandinavian atmosphere that is far from clichéd and faithful to the most authentic Nordic spirit. With a cultural rather than aesthetic approach, this villa nestled among the dunes of the North Sea combines simplicity and comfort, conviviality and intimacy.
The living room features neutral colours and natural materials that interact with the external landscape visible from the large windows. The simplicity of the architecture is reflected in the linear design of the furnishings: the sofa is given warmth by earthy tones, while the coffee tables feature natural marble tops.
In the second living room, the fireplace is also the central architectural element, designed to provide the room with an alternative focal point to the large window. The more compact space creates a more intimate atmosphere: the armchairs invite conversation or relaxation, while the daybed and large bookcase on the wall are perfect for reading.
The daybed is part of the Bellport Collection, the same collection used for the living room. The lines are classic, the metal feet elegant, while the selection of finishes evokes different atmospheres – warm in the first living room, nocturnal and relaxing in the second. The choice of the same collection also helps to create coordinated and consistent environments, in pure Poliform style.
Lotta Agaton is a stylist and interior designer with a delicate and elegant touch. Her studio, one of the most important in the Scandinavian scene, became known for giving expressivity and character to Nordic minimalism. In Lotta Agaton’s projects, white is warmed by a mellow grey scale and by materials such as wood, stone, wool, cement, and metal: a poetic yet concrete vision at the same time, because it is based on beauty, or better on the way beauty affects us. In this sense, the images taken at Lotta Agaton’s house in Stockholm are examples of her philosophy. From the shades to the subjects – a natural stone and small wooden objects, a sculpture and a ceramic vase, a bronze cup and an ancient coral, a work of art and a pod dried by the sun of Mallorca – her vision shows itself with the same ordered lightness of a palette of whites, greys, and natural tones.
