A minimal refuge amongst the trees
Hidden within the trees and blanketed by climbing vines, this countryside retreat pleasantly ushers the forest inside. The warm materiality of the naturally-inspired surfaces contrasts with the expansive picture windows, sparking an amicable dialogue between the interiors, decorated in Patina and Wallcrete, and the exteriors, coloured with Outdoor Paint.
Characterized by complementary shades of crisp warm greys from the Warm Collection and new cool greys from the Color Collection, plus a clean white ceiling and wooden flooring in warm honey, this family abode becomes an idyllic refuge from the demands of city life.
Various shades of grey KK 67 in Absolute were used on alternating walls in the bedroom, creating depth within the minimally furnished room.
In the kitchen, an intense palette of slate greys in Wallcrete Living KK 72 highlights the warmth of the wooden floors and the cool brightness of the white marble breakfast table.
Crawling vines are allowed to overtake this home nestled deep in the forest. On a small studio in the garden the slate grey of the exterior, coloured in Outdoor Paint KK 68, follows the same palette as inside, a Microresina Floor in KK 72, extending a well-studied continuity between indoors and outdoors.
