‘Light, space, warmth’

Photography: Mia Borgelin, Nicolas Botas and Matthew Gormly
Architect: Benjamin Calleja

Benjamin Calleja and his Spanish wife Patricia Ramos tried to create a Swedish home that would make the most of the limited northern lights. Architecturally, it embraces cantilevered, room-high glazing, reflective pools and an open location with open water and outdoor air, while actually nestled in the suburbs of Stockholm.

The house leads you into the kitchen where there is an open space of walnut and granite. On one side a view of the water and on the other the breathtaking kitchen, complete with Gaggenau appliances from the 400 series.
