Water

Overlooking a charming harbor with iconic Dutch scenery—boats, cows, and a windmill—this penthouse reflects the thoughtful choices of its retired owners. They selected this unique property as their next chapter and entrusted us with the design and renovation, ensuring every detail matched their vision for a serene and functional home.

Transforming the Corridor:
A key design challenge was the existing corridor, cluttered by six doors with visible hinges, ventilation grilles, and a disjointed appearance. Our solution transformed this into a clean, minimalist feature wall made from nubuck slats mounted on an acoustic backing. Each door was custom-fitted with discreet handles, designed according to its function, creating a seamless wall with (semi-)hidden doors that blend effortlessly into the design.

Refined Details Throughout:
Every room in the penthouse tells its own story through meticulous details. In the guest toilet, a full-size marble back wall stands out, with flush buttons precision-cut from the same marble using waterjet technology. The guest bedroom, with its recessed baseboards and an ensuite bathroom, offers a refined, almost studio-like quality that balances comfort with sophistication.

A Living Room Reimagined:
The living room and kitchen posed a unique challenge due to their near-square shape, requiring a creative departure from traditional layouts. We embraced the space by creating a back-to-back seating arrangement. This allowed for a larger lounge area focused on the TV and fireplace, while a cozier section faces outward toward the view. The result is a functional yet inviting space that caters to multiple uses while maintaining its warmth and elegance.

A Home with Intention:
This penthouse is a celebration of thoughtful living. From the functional design solutions, such as the corridor transformation, to the luxurious material choices, each decision was made to create a space that reflects the owners' lifestyle. It’s a home designed for ease and enjoyment, where every detail contributes to a harmonious whole.
