The brief was clear. Design a home that grows with a young family. And respect the building’s historic character. No clean break from the past, but rather some smart interventions that create space – literally and figuratively – for everyday family life.
Softness shaped the entire design. Hard corners and sharp lines made way for rounded forms. Forms that invite movement and let rooms flow naturally into one another. In a compact home, that choice changes everything. And Master Oak made it possible. The material bends smoothly with every curve and adds a sense of calm and warmth at the same time.
Rounded forms were essential to the design. Master Oak allowed us to execute them exactly as intended."
