A classic spirit revisited, between clarity and warmth
The overall inspiration is based on a balance between clear walls, intended to visually enlarge spaces, and the use of warm materials. The oak parquet replaces the old natural stone floor, bringing an immediate feeling of comfort and unity. The volumes are highlighted by a false perimeter ceiling, designed to integrate lighting while maintaining the central height of the room. This intervention makes it possible to structure the space without weighing it down, while emphasizing the architectural and decorative elements.
Living room and dining room: custom furniture and lighting
In the living room, the spaces have been completely redesigned from walls that were initially empty. An open fire is integrated into a set of custom-made furniture, including low storage and a television area. The bookcases combine lacquered MDF structures with dark-stained oak shelves, creating a subtle and elegant contrast. The dining room is distinguished by a discreet but structuring decorative element: vertical dark oak paneling, highlighted by LED backlighting. The peripheral lighting of the ceiling accompanies the whole, highlighting the walls and objects without overwhelming the volumes.
SieMatic kitchen: simplicity and functionality
The kitchen is furnished with SieMatic furniture in black lacquer, combined with a beige Silestone worktop. The credenza is made of ceramic and integrated lighting highlights the worktop. The central island is designed as a space for conviviality and breakfast, without cooking function, promoting exchanges and the fluidity of circulation in a generously sized kitchen.
Bathroom and private areas
The bathroom is treated with large maple-gray tile slabs, placed on the floor and on the walls. The furniture is custom designed, with a Corian sink shelf and stained oak veneer elements.
Children's rooms: built-in storage and work areas
In the children's rooms, custom closets are integrated in the continuity of an office set. This composition makes it possible to organize storage and work spaces in a fluid and coherent way, while fitting naturally into the overall layout of the villa.
Conclusion
This villa renovation in Waterloo illustrates a classic contemporary approach, where modernization involves the choice of materials, the control of light and custom furniture. Without looking for the spectacular effect, the project reveals a balanced interior architecture, designed for daily comfort and sustainability, faithful to the DNA of complete renovations by Home Design.
