Modern living in a historic monument is a five-level house renovation in Amsterdam, Netherlands, by BNLA architecten. Set on the Keizersgracht, the project reworks a national monument with restored heritage elements and a fully reimagined interior developed with Wonderstruck. Across more than 480 m², the narrow, deep canal house balances the city’s public face with quieter rooms overlooking the enclosed garden.
City Oasis places a warm, modern apartment in the heart of Amsterdam, Netherlands, shaped by Martijn Veldman Interior Design. Sunlit rooms, grounded by deep greens and pale timber, frame daily rituals in a calm, composed way that softens the city edge. Each volume flows into the next, so cooking, dining, relaxing, and sleeping feel connected yet quietly distinct.
Villa JPC is a newly built house in the Netherlands by Guy de Vos, set close to the River Amstel. The plan follows the sun from first light in the bedrooms to sunset gatherings in a second-floor living room facing nature, with materials doing the quiet work: pre-finished teakwood, travertine, and microcement. Generous windows, plush seating, and a kitchen carved from rock speak to daily life as much as craft.
Kazemat Koningsweg sets a quiet tone on the Veluwe in the Netherlands, where JCR Architecten crafts a hideout that recedes into the land. The small holiday house occupies a former military compound now shared by housing, workplaces, and eleven compact retreats, and it meets the brief with angular restraint and a camouflaged stance. Sunken into the ground, it reads like a bunker from afar yet opens to treetop views and light within.
Penthouse West crowns a 1968 office block in Rotterdam, Netherlands, with a glass-box home and restored Modernist bones. Powerhouse Company leads the conversion, turning a neglected address into a layered apartment building capped by their own family penthouse. The project pairs engineering finesse with a lush material palette, drawing on Midcentury Modern cues and post-war Rotterdam finishes to frame long skyline views while bringing the building’s original character back into focus.
Completed in 2023 by Dutch designer Jeroen de Nijs, Villa in the Park is a house located in Alkmaar, Netherlands. The impressive residence features an open-plan layout with an entrance leading to a mezzanine floor as the family’s main living area and was designed with just two materials – wood and microcement – to create an almost Mediterranean atmosphere.
The comfortable Penthouse, located near the Schoorl sand dunes and right at the edge of the forest in Schoorl, Netherlands, was designed by architect Jeroen de Nijs in 2024. The spacious apartment combines natural tones and materials with a layout that maximises natural light and views, delivering a tranquil, vacation-like atmosphere for a family looking to escape city living.
i29 designed the Senior Shelter, a 100 m² (1,076 sq ft) house, in the Netherlands. This single-level abode integrates architecture and interior design into a harmonious space for multigenerational living. This project prioritizes the human scale and comfort, creating a layout that fosters connection with the outdoors while respecting the privacy of its residents.
