Located on the West Coast of the Bergen archipelago in Norway, Villa Storingavika is one of the most strikingly beautiful structure clad in glass, black stained wood and oiled natural wood. The rocky hillside, the green garden and the wonderful view of blue waters makes this home a complete delight. Constructed with an attempt to utilize the available space to a maximum by Saunders Architecture, the two floors of the building are styled to face the rough Norwegian weather. The interiors are shaped to match the exterior design and the shower with a glass view is one feature that you will not really find far too often anywhere else in the world!

If you were to ask me what my dream home would look like, the answer would be modern, minimalist, with lots of space and with a nice view over the beach or maybe over the woods. I’m not sure if the Vivendelstien house in Norway is close to a beach or a mountain but I do know it’s close to what I would expect when it comes to interior design.


Designed by Norwegian architect Tommie Wilhelmsen this house won’t impress you with its exterior, but will do it as soon as you enter the front door with its interior. A warm “gigantic” living space that puts the white in contrast with little things like the ottomans, the colorful pillows, the couch or the relaxing looking chairs. If you ask me, the guy managed to get the best harmony possible.

The White House by JVA (Jarmund/Vigsnæs AS Arkitekter MNAL) is located in Strand, Norway and is defined by clean lines, white wooden panels, oak ceiling, and concrete floors. Situated in a quite dense suburban setting, the house twists dynamically between sheltering for privacy and opening up for angles of vistas. The central space of the house stretches between the morning light between the pines towards east, and the western horizon of the Oslo fjord. The house is clad with painted wooden panels, outside and inside. Walls and ceiling on the first floor are finished in oak, while floor and walls of the ground floor are exposed concrete casted on site. - Via

The Kolonihagen Summerhouse was designed by Tommie Wilhelmsen of Stavanger, Norway. The Kolonihagen Summerhouse is a great example of how much can be done with small spaces. Personally I’d love to stay in a small but beautiful house like this, especially in weekend, and that’s why I call this house a little piece of heaven, because is a great place to relax. But let’s stop talking and admire the pictures. - Via - Treehugger
