House of the Day: Palmgren House by John Pawson

August 11th, 2016

This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.

Designed and built between 2006 and 2013, this house on the shore of Sweden’s Lake Drevviken is uncompromisingly contemporary. The simple surfaces and pale tonal palette are typical of Pawson’s designs, and are particularly remarkable on this site in winter when the property becomes virtually camouflaged within the snow-covered surroundings.
