Stepping into this open-plan Dutch apartment, there's an immediate sense of calm and spaciousness. Cool, white walls, expanses of glass and zoned living areas enhance the modern feel.
1/7 Open-plan living area
2/7 Open-plan kitchen
A movable, modular kitchen unit on castor wheels makes a versatile addition to the run of bright orange units. Floor tiles, not laid in a uniform grid, add to the eclectic feel, as do the four wall clocks set to different global time zones.
3/7 Modular kitchen
This clever modular unit creates masses of storage, but can be moved to different locations in the open-plan living space as the need arises.
4/7 Colonial-style living room
Colonial-style furnishings - such as a the zebra skin-covered bench and wooden furniture - surrounded by ice-white accents create a living room with a grown-up feel.
5/7 Relaxation area
Frosted glass sliding doors section off this relaxing day bed from the rest of the open-plan living room. Shuttered windows help retain the Dutch feel, even amid all the modernity.
6/7 Masculine bedroom
A tailor's dummy adds colour and an eclectic touch to this minimalistic but masculine bedroom. White from the floorboards up, it's a naturally soothing space to sleep in.
7/7 All-white bedroom
Voile blinds, a softly draped canopy and ice-white bed linen have an ethereal quality. A richly coloured throw adds depth and grounds the scheme.
