The rooms are arranged around it; in this way one has the possibility to experience either an extroverted and social stay, or a private experience, choosing the rooms that face the garden and offer privacy.

The design team has decided to drop the ceiling to accommodate services in one corner of the rectangular living area, staining its timber surface black for cossetting appeal. Extending towards the lift lobby, a mechanical sliding main entrance connects the two zones, creating an intimate vestibule like lounge/library. Musk, lilac and plum are the trifecta hues within the open living area with citrus accents introduced via golden bands encircling the illuminated Murano glass totems and an amber porthole piercing the sliding entrance door.
he design team of YSG Studio has gutted the entire penthouse, from flooring to overhead lighting, transforming it into an immersiveT haven for the owners. Oversized soft landings, deep piled custom rugs and stone surfaces with planetary swirls levitate within. Counterbalancing the sobriety of the box-like architectural frame shrouded in glass, they demarcate zones within the expansive living area.

The designers clad it in mis matched oversized Lapis blue granite tiles (plus the surface of the quirky mobile drinks trolley with its integrated lamp). Cut from slabs to resolve lift height restrictions preventing the transport of solid pieces, they set the theme for graphic walls animated by glossy Moroccan tiles.

Through the door, on which the wallpaper and panels have been applied to make it less appealing, you enter the walk in closet with a simple design. Next, there is also an attached bathroom with a terrazzo counter and natural brick tiles on the walls.

A concealed family and TV room is located near the kitchen, also fitted with fishbone parquet. Unlike the rest of the property, this room was designed in darker tones with a luxurious leather couch, stools, and an advanced audio system. The lounge continues the kitchen’s clean design lines. A variety of harmonious seating spaces, in neutral shades, were placed in the lounge and include chaiselounges, stools and other inviting cozy areas for each and everyone of the family members. This space was designed purely for the purpose of entertaining and overlooks the garden through large windows that create a sense of space and seamless continuity between the indoors and the outdoors. A large area of the swimming pool, which isn't big and mostly used for entertaining, was dedicated to a splash pool with sunbeds. A lounging area and a dining area were designed on either side of the pool, each continuing their respective internal areas.

The entrance to the master bedroom is through a corridor of cupboards. Those, as well as the door to the en suite, are concealed by engraved carpentry. The same carpentry design was used for the bed headboard, which is combined with hanging reading lights, as well as the cupboard fitted across from the bed. This creates a harmonious look with ample storage space.
The design concept in the couple’s large en suite is different. The space is tiled with large, thin, dark gray tiles, and the space is fitted with a dominant freestanding bath, a large shower and a granite covered cupboard.
The stairs were covered in wood that matches the parquet and continues the design thread. A glass banister, supported by hidden attachments, emphasizes the “less is more” theme. A small bridge was designed on the top level, from which the ground level can be observed and serves as a partition between the children’s wing and the parents’ wing.
A large guest suite was designed in the basement with a cozy lounge and an exit to a courtyard, to be used by their three grown children when they come to visit.

A garden) at the lower, original level. This causes a difference in height and light that poses design challenges and creative opportunities in equal measure especially in such a traditional house where a balance must be struck between respecting heritage and introducing modern touches.
To create an interior that fits the original architecture while freshening it up, the spatial qualities of each living area were assessed and the properties of height, light and each building structure and window shape were maximised. Fruits of this approach are perhaps most visible in the spacious kitchen and dining area at the back of the house. A low beam ceiling s you might have guessed, Dijkhuis are built next to a dyke. As building a dyke raises the ground level, it means that houses around it have a back area (and

In the kitchen itself a terrazzo kitchen top is matched with detailed wooden cabinets on a terracotta tiled wooden floor and a light custom porcelain cabinet made of glass, wooden profiles and white tiles.
Turning right, you enter the living room, the most lavish space in the house. Light streams in through tall arched windows that give the curved, high ceiling with art deco decorations a spacious and welcoming feel. Both the ceiling and the walls have been painted in three hues of white to enhance the room’s architectural elements.

Upstairs from the kitchen the entrance hallway is on the same level as the dyke. Across the hall is a toilet decorated with square off white tiles: glossy on the wall, matt tiles on the floor.

whose shape mirrors the windows opposite it. A large green sofa and a built in cocktail bar with a terrazzo top make this a room where you can relax from dusk to dawn.
The first floor hosts four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a separate toilet. To create enough space for these living arrangements, two dormer windows were installed that run along two thirds of the length of the roof. In contrast to downstairs, the floors here are lighter, with brighter colours on the walls to create a serene atmosphere. On the bedroom ceilings you’ll find details of the original beamed roof. Both bathrooms have a travertine back splash and are tiled with upright rectangular glossy tiles on the walls, and matt tiles in a herringbone pattern on the floor. Herringbone returns in the double plank parquet in the bedrooms, but in the corridors, this changes into straight planking to give the vertical dimensions of the house more character. This symbolizes the way Studio Modijefsky has paid tribute to the building’s heritage while filling it with contemporary style.
