Kralingen; A small neighbourhood in Rotterdam that is packed with history and remains a local’s favourite. Known for its endless flowery avenues, romantic landscape, and tall majestic mansions, Kralingen has a magical feel to it that keep visitors wanting to go back. Over the years the neighbourhood has grown and has become popular in the world of architecture because of its approach to new housing; homes should work with nature rather than against it. Born out of a regeneration project is this beautifully sleek eco-home that fully embraces the eco-lifestyle and captivates the elements of Scandinavian design perfectly.
The homeowners briefed the interiors designers to soften the space, as they believed it looked a little too masculine and needed lightness to it. The result? A beautiful example of how to bring together natural elements of oak, neutral linens, and woven rugs without it looking too boho-chic and retains the design principles of traditional Scandinavian interiors that we’ve all grown to love.
