Modernist Townhouse

Private residence — Stockholm, 2025

Set within a 1985 townhouse outside Stockholm, the project develops a new interior language around the building’s original architecture. Working with Estelle Graf, Madelen Möllard introduced a layered palette of deep red, pale blue, soft pink and muted green, using colour, custom joinery and textiles to create continuity throughout the home.

The original staircase became the starting point for the home’s colour language. Painted in a deep red, the tone continues through floors and joinery, creating a visual thread between the rooms.

In the living room, a dark red floor and pale blue ceiling establish the architectural colour framework, balanced by warm wood, patterned textiles and full-height linen curtains.

The children’s room is treated as a single colour field, with walls, ceiling and carpet in tonal pinks. A custom bed alcove framed by full-height linen curtains creates a softer architectural room within the room.

In the second bedroom, muted green linen and a shaped valance frame the window, while low furniture and wall-to-wall carpet keep the room quiet and restrained.
