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.
The sculpture-table is the centrepiece of the dining area, flanked by chairs with slender and modern lines. The circle is an archetypal shape repeated in the table base and in the backrest of the chairs. The visual contact is twofold: on the one hand, towards the interior of the villa and its bookcases, present in every room; on the other, towards the nature outside.
The Kensington sculpture table is majestic and evocative, a work of art among the many works of art in the villa. Alongside it are Stanford Bridge chairs, with their slim, enveloping shells that make socialising a pleasure, with a subtle, contemporary elegance that blends well with the aesthetics of the home.
The work island is minimalist yet complete: it houses the sink and hob, while the peninsula is equipped for use as a work area. The hood is a system comprising extractor-lighting, spice rack, and plant grow light modules – to be cared for like a garden. The steel finish is modern and professional, recalling the colour of the sea visible in the distance.
Shape is a kitchen with handle-free doors, inspired by handle-free kitchens in terms of contemporary design and functionality. This gives it a modern look, enhanced by the steel finish. In keeping with the Nordic aesthetic of the villa, which combines rigour with warmth, the columns are made of black elm, a finish that highlights the beauty of the wood.
The wardrobe area, with its double-pitched ceiling, references a typically Nordic symbolism. Maximum privacy with closed wardrobes facing each other, creating a small relaxation area in the centre with a view of the dunes, almost a sanctuary of wellbeing and self-care.

A sense of tranquillity also extends to the bedroom, where the furnishings are minimalist yet warm and welcoming. The fully upholstered bed features enveloping lines that recall the curves of the bedside tables and armchairs. There is also a bookcase in the bedroom, a feature found throughout the house.
