Caddebostan House

Shortlisted: Living Space Europe Award

The International Design & Architecture Awards 2025

IDA 2025

The Caddebostan duplex, masterfully designed by Escapefromsofa, embodies a modern, art gallery-inspired interior that seamlessly integrates comfort and high-end design. This refined space, adorned with custom-made furnishings, natural materials, and curated artworks, effectively distinguishes communal areas from private spaces. Drawing influence from 1970s Miami, the design features pastel hues, eucalyptus panels, and travertine, cultivating an elegant and inviting ambiance that resonates with the homeowners’ aspiration for a spacious, functional, and comfortable living space with an art collector’s aesthetic.

Throughout the project, Escapefromsofa employed clean lines and a modern, timeless approach, creating a visually compelling environment that endures over time. Central to the design was the harmonious connection of communal spaces while ensuring the independent arrangement of private areas, aligning with modern living standards. This balance between aesthetics and functionality was achieved through open-plan layouts that facilitate fluid transitions, amplifying the sense of openness and space.

The gallery-inspired atmosphere was brought to life through clean, modern lines that echo the spirit of art collection. The strategic use of natural materials—including stone, eucalyptus, oak veneer panels, and Iranian travertine—added depth and texture, enhancing durability and complementing the minimalist design. The carefully selected color palette, composed of beige and brown tones, established a serene and balanced environment, reinforcing the gallery-like ambiance and exuding warmth and intimacy.

Achieving a seamless integration of aesthetics and functionality was a primary challenge, deftly met through the strategic layout. This thoughtful design ensures a harmonious blend of communal and private spaces, combining modern sophistication with comfort. By merging 1970s Miami influences with contemporary art gallery elements, Escapefromsofacreated a timeless, inviting home that showcases the homeowners’ art collection with elegance and ease.
