Into The Wild
Old forge
Stina felt in love for the valley of Gotland, the biggest island in Sweden, and decided to build up her dream house from this old forge. When the house was purchased in 1979, this forge was just a ruin. In the living room the original floor was replaced with flat stones picked on the beach. Flea market treasures and pastels have created a truly unique feel.

First they wanted a Canadian home into the wild. Second, a home that provides well-being for their children, combined with a « not minimalist » modernity. A real challenge for the designers of Studio René Desjardins who had to listen to customer desires but also to shake their bearings. To the question of well-being, the designers created a space that provides freedom of movement for the children: big volumes that offer playing areas and fluidity from a room to another. Moreover, everything was made to facilitate the contact with nature and to let the landscape penetrate into the home.
