To achieve a bright and inviting interior, Will chose pale yet warm alder wood, a species native to the region, as the dominant material. It covers the curved ceiling and walls, composes the built-in bedframe and the storage in the compact kitchen, and makes an appearance in the vanity of the minimalist tiled bathroom (which also boasts an infrared sauna). Meanwhile, LED lighting and an energy-recovery ventilator keep the home sustainable.
When it came to furnishing the space, Will prioritized size, followed by midcentury-modern style. “We really had to go with the smallest option of furniture everywhere,” he says. “It’s a very small sofa. It’s very well-appointed and comfortable, but it’s not your average love seat. I also chose a lot of rounded features to play with the rounded shape of the building.”
