Studio loft conversion in a rustic Scandi style with open bedroom and bathroom featuring a custom made bed, bespoke vanity and freestanding copper bateau bath.

Siguiendo con la línea escogemos tonos beis y grifos en blanco que crean una sensación de calma. La puerta corrediza nos da paso al espacio donde hay el lavabo primero, el inodoro después y la zona de ducha de obra + bañera junto a la ventana para disfrutar de la luz natural. Todo esto sumado a la iluminación LED escondida, hace que te sientas en un auténtico SPA!

Il bagno crea una continuazione materica con il resto della casa. Si è optato per utilizzare gli stessi materiali per il mobile del lavabo e per la colonna laterale. Il dettaglio principale è stato quello di piegare a 45° il bordo del mobile per creare una gola di apertura dei cassetti ed un vano a giorno nella parte bassa. Il lavabo di Duravit va in appoggio ed è contrastato dalle rubinetterie nere Gun di Jacuzzi. Le pareti sono rivestite di Biscuits, le piastrelle di 41zero42.

From the outside this one of a kind modern farmhouse home is set off by the contrasting materials of the Shou Sugi Ban Siding, exposed douglas fir accents and steel metal roof while the inside boasts a clean lined modern aesthetic equipped with a wood fired pizza oven. Through the design and planning phases of this home we developed a simple form that could be both beautiful and every efficient. This home is ready to be net zero with the future addition of renewable resource strategies (ie. solar panels).

Rénovation complète de cet appartement plein de charme au coeur du 11ème arrondissement de Paris. Nous avons redessiné les espaces pour créer une chambre séparée, qui était autrefois une cuisine. Dans la grande pièce à vivre, parquet Versailles d'origine et poutres au plafond. Nous avons créé une grande cuisine intégrée au séjour / salle à manger. Côté ambiance, du béton ciré et des teintes bleu perle côtoient le charme de l'ancien pour donner du contraste et de la modernité à l'appartement.

木のぬくもりを感じる優しい雰囲気のオリジナルの製作洗面台。 ボウルには実験室用のシンクを使用しました。巾も広く、深さもある実用性重視の洗面台です。 洗面台の上部L字型に横長の窓を設け、採光が十分にとれる明るい空間になるような計画としました。 洗面台を広く使え、よりすっきりするように洗面台に設けた収納スペースは壁に埋め込んだものとしました。洗面台・鏡の枠・収納スペースの素材を同じにすることで統一感のある空間に仕上がっています。

Das Masterbad ist eine gelungene Designmeisterleistung. Die Wanne als auch die Regendusche sind cocoonartig von großen Fliesen in Teakholzoptik gerahmt. Der Boden ebenso in Holzoptik gefliest. Der moderne Look wird durch eine französische Landhaustapete und einem Spiegel aus einem ehemaligen alten Schloß aufgebrochen.

After the second fallout of the Delta Variant amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic in mid 2021, our team working from home, and our client in quarantine, SDA Architects conceived Japandi Home. The initial brief for the renovation of this pool house was for its interior to have an "immediate sense of serenity" that roused the feeling of being peaceful. Influenced by loneliness and angst during quarantine, SDA Architects explored themes of escapism and empathy which led to a “Japandi” style concept design – the nexus between “Scandinavian functionality” and “Japanese rustic minimalism” to invoke feelings of “art, nature and simplicity.” This merging of styles forms the perfect amalgamation of both function and form, centred on clean lines, bright spaces and light colours. Grounded by its emotional weight, poetic lyricism, and relaxed atmosphere; Japandi Home aesthetics focus on simplicity, natural elements, and comfort; minimalism that is both aesthetically pleasing yet highly functional. Japandi Home places special emphasis on sustainability through use of raw furnishings and a rejection of the one-time-use culture we have embraced for numerous decades. A plethora of natural materials, muted colours, clean lines and minimal, yet-well-curated furnishings have been employed to showcase beautiful craftsmanship – quality handmade pieces over quantitative throwaway items. A neutral colour palette compliments the soft and hard furnishings within, allowing the timeless pieces to breath and speak for themselves. These calming, tranquil and peaceful colours have been chosen so when accent colours are incorporated, they are done so in a meaningful yet subtle way. Japandi home isn’t sparse – it’s intentional. The integrated storage throughout – from the kitchen, to dining buffet, linen cupboard, window seat, entertainment unit, bed ensemble and walk-in wardrobe are key to reducing clutter and maintaining the zen-like sense of calm created by these clean lines and open spaces. The Scandinavian concept of “hygge” refers to the idea that ones home is your cosy sanctuary. Similarly, this ideology has been fused with the Japanese notion of “wabi-sabi”; the idea that there is beauty in imperfection. Hence, the marriage of these design styles is both founded on minimalism and comfort; easy-going yet sophisticated. Conversely, whilst Japanese styles can be considered “sleek” and Scandinavian, “rustic”, the richness of the Japanese neutral colour palette aids in preventing the stark, crisp palette of Scandinavian styles from feeling cold and clinical. Japandi Home’s introspective essence can ultimately be considered quite timely for the pandemic and was the quintessential lockdown project our team needed.
