The Estate

The Estate

This historic Dutch estate, named Domus Pacis, was reimagined as a refined private residence combining classical architecture with contemporary interiors. The interior design pairs the building's ornate brick facade and period detailing with a restrained, tonal palette of soft greys, warm brass and marble. Sculptural lighting, curated artwork and a mix of vintage and modern furniture create a layered, gallery-like atmosphere throughout the home.

The project involved a full interior transformation of a landmark estate house, working closely with an architecture firm to align new interiors with the building's historic character. Rooms unfold with quiet contrast: dark upholstered sofas against pale walls, brass fixtures against white marble, and striking portrait artworks anchoring several living spaces.

Materials play a central role, from bookmatched marble backsplashes to brass shelving and taps, reinforcing a sense of understated luxury. Furniture selections lean toward sculptural, tactile pieces, while decorative objects and framed photography add personality without overwhelming the architecture.

The result is a home where heritage details and modern interior design coexist comfortably, photographed extensively to document each considered space.
