Feeling The Zen From 'The House of Silence'

The House of Silence. What a lovely name. And the space certainly lives up to it. Designed and visualised by Maria Marinina in 2018, the 62 square metre (667 square foot) is surrounded by woodland and combines a wealth of natural materials from cool stone to warm wood which add contrast and interest to the largely neutral scheme. The space also pays homage to many of the hottest interior trends right now, including pivoted screen doors (love these!), sculptured furniture, asymmetric mirrors, dried flowers and subtle textiles in cream, pink-rust and tan hues, all off which contribute warmth and softness to the open-plan living space. Welcome to the world of Zen!

1. Fringe mirror / Ben & Aja Blanc (if you feel like getting creative, there’s a DIY here!)
I wonder how quickly your pulse would lower just walking through the door?! Sure, these pictures were taken immediately after the project was finished so unless you were a total neatnik you’d have a load more stuff (I speak for myself here!) – but I think the natural materials would still shine through and bring a huge sense of calm. 
Is this your kind of style?
See more pictures of The House of Silence, and the floor plan here
Thank you so much to Desire To Inspire for the tip!
Are you doing anything this evening? It’s Valborgsmässoafton (try pronouncing that!!) here in Sweden. Known as Walpurgis night in English, every 30th of April local communities in Sweden gather around bonfires and sing to welcome spring to the northern shores! Let’s just hope the rain holds off! 
Have a Zen day!
