Scandinavia is slowly cranking back into action – with many heading back to work today and school starting later this week (can you hear the audible sigh of relief?). But at this beautiful home in Gothenburg, it will feel like summer for far longer thanks to the pool nestled among the rocks and views over the archipelagos! 

The ‘svarta ladhus’ (black barn), belongs to Helena Fältivar Bundgaard and her family who have built the house from the ground up, personalising it every inch of the way. Here’s their faithful hound Beppe who will take you on today’s tour! 
The spacious kitchen from Himlekök is an absolute dream, featuring everything from a wood cabinets, open shelving, a bench seat and fireplace. Beppe’s favourite though, is the stone island which mirrors the cliffs outside! 

In the sitting room area, a pair of iconic Danish Spanish Chairs designed by Borge Møgensen sit side by side.  

A second living room area featuring a Cuba Chair has doors open to the pool area. 

In the bedroom, sound proofing in the form of oak panelling from WoodUp helps to create a restful space. 

A desk area with a series 7 chair capitalises on natural light in the bedroom. 

Bathroom cabinets also by Himlekök, have been designed to match the Kitchen. 

The practical laundry room features a shower area for Beppe – complete with his own shampoo! 

Outside, a pool has been nestled among the cliffs, with views over the archipelago. 

Wow! What a fabulous home, thank you so much for the tour, Beppe! 

I would happily laze by that pool all week long, how about you? Is there anything that stood out to you about Helena’s black barn? 

You can see more pictures of this lovely home and keep up to date with Helena’s latest projects at @villanordrevik. 

Perhaps you’d like to feel inspired by a few more Scandinavian pool villas today? Here are a few of my favourites: 

This morning, I’m on the early train to the IKEA headquarters in the forests of Älmhult – the early start was a total shock to the system and I’m already two coffees down, but I’m excited about the project that lies ahead! I hope you have a more relaxing start to the week!
