Space for both quality and alone time. A pared-back home that also allows for easy, comfortable family
living. It may sound like quite the brief, but by blending smart solutions with practical, long-lasting furnishing
choices, this apartment in the city ticks all the boxes.

A kitchen for connection

This kitchen gets a lot of action, so hardwearing pieces make their appearance throughout, from the chopping boards to the kitchen chairs. Two tables also mean there is always enough space for multiple activities. Homework, a puzzle and meal prep? They can happen here all at once and comfortably too.

A spot for family traditions

Finding an activity everyone enjoys can be a great way to create a family tradition. This living room as been set up for movie nights.

Calming tones for a parental retreat

The main bedroom sticks to basics, favouring pieces made from natural materials to foster a sense of calm. A bamboo pendant lamp, wooden bedframe, seagrass rug and cotton bedding all come together to create a simple and relaxing space, with closed wardrobes keeping possessions hidden yet organised.

How to choose natural materials

Bedrooms for well-being and privacy

Whether they’re just starting school or well into teenhood, it’s possible to create bedrooms for kids to grow into. In both these bedrooms, bigger furniture pieces stand the test of time while smaller easily updatable accessories allow kids to explore their interests in a space that feels their own.

A bathroom that gets down to the essentials

A pared-back lifestyle is about being selective, not going without. This attitude is felt throughout the home, but especially in the shared bathroom, where products are kept to a minimum and drawer space divided.

A hallway for coming and going

This is a home for family life and that is clear from the moment you set foot into the hallway. Long and narrow, this space packs a storage punch with hooks, rails, benches and shoe cabinets - all playing their part in making outdoor life easy and accessible for everyone.
