Situated in front of a meadow at one end of a neighborhood far out on the Lidingö island in Stockholm, S house was originally designed for an exuberant entrepreneur and his family as a haven for inspiration and subtle grandeur. The entry façade was deliberately made very private and closed with only a small number of windows which – hidden behind the wooden slats of the upper floor – disappear completely when viewed at an angle. Once inside however, past the entrance hall the panoramic layout manifests the opposite. Nestled around a central living room with a sunken floor and double height ceiling are open, interconnected social and private spaces with beautiful views of the fields beyond. The second floor features rooms with views of the floor below, including a full master suite, cinema, and bedrooms. Materials include a tar oil treated pine façade – chosen for its natural aging qualities – concrete, granite and walnut among other.
The S house has throughout the years been heavily featured on social media and has made several appearances on both Swedish and international TV.
