A Modernist-Inspired Holiday Home Designed to Stand the Test of Time (House Tour)

#HolidayHome #InteriorDesign #Architect
Bellows House emerges as a modernist-inspired holiday home, robust and fortifying in its concrete, brick and block construction. Designed by Architects EAT as a family holiday house, the bold form is layered with intricate interior design and architecture detailing. The name Bellows was inspired by the pyramid shapes within the interior, similar to a bellows of a camera lens. The dynamic layered concrete forms add depth and height to the interior design in a refreshing animation of space.

The bellows pattern is replicated throughout the family holiday house, through joinery handles, kitchen benchtop as well as the external window shrouds. Similarly, concrete materials are repeated throughout the home, seen through white concrete blocks used both internally and externally. Whilst these robust and hardwearing materials form the base of the structure, timber is used throughout the interior design to soften the textural palette of the family home. As a modernist-inspired holiday home, the materials were also chosen to accentuate the natural ageing of the architecture, as well as to appreciate the dynamic interplay of light and shadow throughout space.
