Nordic Architecture: Norwegian Contemporary Villa Design

Norway architect Todd Saunders of Saunders Architecture have been on a quest to come up with a futuristic, fashion-forward and functional villa in Hjellestad, Norway. A great example of Nordic architecture, the villa comes with a sculptural facade and lots of windows to flood the interior with sunlight. Built over three symmetric main modules, the inside of the villa adds to the whole contemporary feeling with custom furniture, large open spaces and mild colors that contrast in the most stunning way. It comes with an open-concept family room, three children’s bedrooms and a play room, a kitchen, the den, the master bedroom and this stunning staircase.

London House Blends Contemporary and Classic in a Very Charismatic Way
