DESCRIPTION
Designed, built and owned by architect Jan Henrik Jansen, the overall idea was to create a simple house with exquisite details. The house has no gutters or downspouts and the blackened wood facade carries on to become the roof. Interior walls and ceilings have a smooth finish made with local beach sand to create a golden color scheme on the surface. Reclaimed sandstone tiles are used at the house entrance and in both bathrooms.
black + bright has no windows in the traditional sense, but rather large floor-to-ceiling sliding glass openings in the facade that invite you to connect with the landscape via in the unobstructed view over the meadows and pastures - even all the way to the sea on a clear day. The partially covered, wrap-around terrace is twice as large as the house itself, ensuring that just as much time is spent outdoors as indoors. Be sure to take a moment in the hammock.
Fixtures and furnishings are superb. In the dining room, take note of the table and bench in solid soaped oak, Louis Poulsen Toldbod lamp and tea light holders from ceramic artist Anke Schulz. The kitchen features Bulthaup furniture and light fixtures as well as Artemide Tolomeo task lamps. Kitchen essentials and appliances are hidden behind frosted aluminum doors from Bulthaup. The master bath sliding glass doors have hidden frames and handles, so although the door resembles one large pane of glass, it can be pushed aside to access the terrace. Enjoy the felt covered walls in the bedrooms.
