VILLA B
2020-2021
Falsterbo, Sweden
Renovation
380 sqm
Status: completed
This villa in Falsterbo was originally built in the late 1960’s and extended in 1972 and 1985. The extensions had made the plan chaotic and the house didn’t take advantage of the striking sea views. The new owner wanted large, open spaces and terraces for social events, work and relaxation. The ground floor was opened up and a generous social kitchen placed to the northern side, alongside a row of cabinets and closets. New bathrooms with steam bath in the bedroom section. The slate ground cover continues outside and wooden decks give direct access to the garden from the bedrooms. New steel canopies and roof terraces give different outdoor sceneries and views with shading.
The new material palette aims to re-establish the building’s 1960’s regional modernist architecture. The exterior is whitewashed brickwork, pre-patinated copper and red cedar, while slate, oregon pine and the same copper is used in the interior. The project was designed and built within 18 months, largely thanks to a great collaboration with the head contractor SAWI. The custom oregon pine kitchen and wardrobes were supplied by Multiform while the solid doors and indoor panel walls were built by Snickeribolaget.
