In the Nordic countries it is common to come across vacation homes that look like fairytale cottages: pitched roof and wooden walls, immersed in nature. And so is this Summer House designed by Mikael Bergquist for an English family. The traditional Nordic typology is integrated with a contemporary vision, and thus the walls (of untreated wood) have ample openings offering views of the surrounding scenery and the living room communicates with the kitchen through large sliding doors. A fairytale with spirit. (via Dezeen)
