| When these clients came to JHID (JESSICA HELGERSON INTERIOR DESIGN) they said they wanted a “Swedish Cottage by the Sea.” Their site was just steps away from the beach, but they were beginning construction on a house that was much more of a Mediterranean villa. |
| JHID designed the interior - fireplaces, ceilings, floors, moldings, cabinetry, and tile - to reflect the style they described. They used a light, fresh, color palette of pale yellows, blues, and whites that are typical of Swedish design. The floors are wide-plank hickory. They also successfully integrated their impressive collection of modern art that includes works by Toulouse Lautrec, David Hockney, George Baselitz and Alexander Calder. |
 |
| In the kitchen, They used a vintage 50’s range with bright red knobs. |
 |
| They designed the fireplace in the master bedroom to be reminiscent of a Swedish cylindrical tile stove. |
 |
| In one of the guest baths, a plexi chair offers a playful contrast to the white tiles found in many cottages. |
