The Mill House in Skåne, Sweden by Wingårdh Arkitektkontor AB is, quite frankly, simply stunning. A converted, old farm house, the vacation home’s style mixes a farm-like aesthetic with completely clean lines. It’s modern, but it’s earthy and homey. It’s modern, but it feels warm like a cabin.
The wood-wrapped walls, mixed with the beautiful views of the gorgeous but tight woods outside, all work together to create a tucked-away oasis that is completely tranquil and relaxing.
“Wingårdh converted a large old farm in the countryside in southern Sweden into a vacation house for a family from the nearby city of Malmö. He transformed the original farm buildings – cowshed, stables, hay loft and barn – into sleeping quarters, kitchen and a gym, among other rooms, and added a new freestanding wing to the late 19th -century house. This little annex is a refuge, a quiet place to escape to or a private domain for guests to inhabit. Throughout the project, the client demonstrated unwavering faith in the architect, giving him great latitude in designing the little fifty-square-meter cottage.”
Do you love this space? Modern enough? Too modern? Too small?

I like how light floats in and wood looks stunning inside but I wouldn’t like to live in a glass box though.
Glass box bad, but floaty light and wood good, I’m with you!

Hah! Nice to know it’s doable, considering how lovely it is!

ideal!
Really like the contemporary, efficient use of space and the glass, wood, stone material combination. I would like to try living there – very minimalist!
