This modern summer house was realized by Norm Architects and is located deep in the Swedish forests. The house used to be a traditional wooden cottage, yet it has now completely transformed into a modern summer house that feels intertwined with nature both in its choice of materials and the views you get from the windows.

The cabin is designed for a simple life, equipped with only the necessities resulting in a rustic, yet refined interior design that carries the signature minimalist style of Norm Architects.

A solid wood kitchen with limestone countertops

The solid wood kitchen cabinets are finished off with warm tones in the limestone countertops, a light grey limewash paint on the walls, and a contrasting black faucet.

Different wood tones in the dining area

The combination of the different dining chairs, the cabinet doors, and the rustic dining table makes for a perfect mixture of wood tones for a rustic and elegant effect in the space that has a modern appearance, yet relates to the traditional history of the cabin.

A minimalistic living room that highlights the view

The living room has large windows to enjoy the forest from. By keeping the furniture and decor in this room minimal, the view is the true focal point in this elegant space.

Custom built-ins finish off this modern summer house

The oak wood that is used for the kitchen cabinets can be found in the custom built-in modules that are integrated into the walls. The combination of the warm oak of the cabinet doors with the warm hardwood flooring and the original wood beams work in perfect balance.

A custom window seat to enjoy the forest surroundings

A large custom window seat spreads along the entire length of the large window overlooking the forest, offering a prime spot to enjoy the changing leaves over the season.
