In The Stockholm Archipelago, Villa Kymmendö Connects To Nature

Built for social gathering, ‘Villa Kymmendö’ features an open plan living area with a living room, dining area, and kitchen with a fireplace. A five-bedroom covered core provides retreat, while a laundry room, a technical room, a storage room, and a large family room occupy the more private basement floor. The firm used only a selected number of materials throughout the house—glass, Gotland limestone, Oregon pine, and twig-free American pine. “The materials have been given different treatments, which gives the villa a subtle variation,” explains a statement from the firm.
