Ms. Broos, what do you focus on when entering a new room?
I look at the building’s architecture and the room’s potential – this includes light conditions, shade, size and position of the windows and ceiling height. The building’s structure and the client’s requests are crucial for our designs.
What is special about this project’s interior design?
Working with space and creating a calm base are the starting points of our work. Interiors interest me because of the different textures and furniture from different eras. Juxtaposing our age-old home with our radically modern studio offered a lot of creative freedom. For example, placing an antique rug next to modern classics. Or the way the fine texture of the UNIVERSAL curtain and the rough walls of the living room wonderfully complement each another. I’m very happy about the result.
What challenges did your studio’s minimalism pose?
It was exciting to hang curtains in the studio – in a minimalist room such as this one, you always have to be weary of overload. Choosing different hues of grey and textures, such as those in SERATA and DELTACOUSTIC, flowing out into the concrete walls, the floor and the ceiling, has created a beautiful contemporary scenery.
