2/6 Living room
In contrast to the exterior, the inside of the house is white and bright. The modular sofas in the living room allow everyone to enjoy the views, while the low bookcases are on casters so they can be wheeled out of the way for parties.

5/6 Bathroom
The floor in the bathroom is cleverly slatted so it works as a wet room, too. The dark green adds refreshing colour and looks beautiful with the rich wood.
