The same black panoramic window frames, far protruding concrete roof edges, wooden decks, etc. But the special charm of the gray stone exterior trimming and stone slab pavement reveals the Scandi touch.
The wooden planks that spread from the deck to the walls and further to the wrong side of the ceiling create the impression of the continuous and finished design. In addition, the upper level is delimited only with a plexiglass ceiling to bring you to the unique sense of surrounding space.
