A contemporary residential renovation with classic elements

This newly-built private residence in the south of Finland is designed by Fyra (in collaboration with Studio BonBon Architects, photographed by Riikka Kantinkoski). The calm and tranquil aesthetic of the interior is carefully crafted with custom furniture, lighting, and surfaces to meet the needs of the residents.

The clean and minimal architecture draws inspiration from a Mediterranean aesthetic, while the interior design disrupts uniformity with a variety of textures and materials for a vibrant and engaging effect. The combination of rough and soft surfaces works well in this spacious home where thoughtful lines of sight facilitate serene transitions from one room into the other.

The majestically tall windows with black frames make the living room such an impressive space. White couches on top of a structural beige area rug set the stage for a cozy sofa area paired with a black leather lounge chair in front of the modern fireplace.

Modern bathrooms with a combination of natural materials

The main bathroom is connected to a walk-in closet custom-made out of oak wood elements. The chrome and oak details also come back in the material palette of the bathroom, connecting both spaces visually.
