Elegant Simplicity

Compact-yet-generous living provides a sense of warmth and calm comfort, in this modest-sized and well-appointed new luxury Villa in Cambridge.
Are we witnessing a quiet revolution in how we think about home?
A space designed with care and intention can offer a genuinely more comfortable alternative than a mansion filled with rooms that might rarely see life.
For some of those building new homes, it's not about having less, it's about focusing on what really matters.
A range of factors have played their part, but at its heart, this is about understanding that true luxury doesn’t need to be measured in square footage, but in how thoughtfully every inch serves the way we actually live.
DSGNR's purpose is to design spaces that inspire and connect with the people who inhabit them.
"Your space should feel unmistakably yours."
Through its vaulted ceilings and open plan living spaces, light saturates this newly minted home, allowing us to delve into timber accents with rich detail on the floor and ceiling.
The kitchen takes a minimalist approach with a scullery to ensure plenty of backup and benchtop space.
The warm, grey-based neutral cabinetry plays support to the Dekton TREVI benchtop and splashback with its homage to Roman Silver Travertine.
A Bell pendant by Axolight lends the space acoustic properties and together with the Scandi abstract sheers weave some tone-on-tone elegance to finish the room.
The plaster rendered Fireplace offers a glimpse of the second living which acts as a retreat from the main living room, a comfortable space to relax and enjoy the sunshine.
Although a modest-sized dwelling with two bedrooms, the wider hallways create a generous feel to the home and the timber flooring by Haro provides sophisticated rusticity.
