Happy Accent
Now that the interiorâs palette is firmly in place, Winterhalder has slowly been adding splashes of color. E27 pendant lamps from Muuto in the kitchen and guest room have
red cords; one wall in the guest room is also red, with matching red locker storage. The inside of the front door is painted bright green. âFor me, theyâre kidsâ colors,â she says. âI just love them.â

Sticker Shock
Though colorful dashes here and there certainly enliven the sober interior, little adds a dose of whimsy like the wall decals found in the kidsâ rooms. The owl over Jonneâs shoulder is available from Raumgerecht and the branch leaves are from the Dutch company Inke.

Boxy Rebellion
âI like simple shapes, and for a house,â says Winterhalder, âa box is very good.â
The two downstairs bathrooms are located in freestanding larch-covered cubes; the kitchen island is resoundingly rectilinear; and a square-shaped area in the guest bedroom serves as a home office, where Winterhalder designs UV-blocking childrenâs beach wear for her label, Beach Heroes.
Measure Twice
When determining the height of the concrete blocks that form the outer wall of the kitchen island, the couple took a hands-on approach. âWe measured our coffeemaker and a bottle of oil, and thatâs how much higher we made the concrete blocks than the counter,âWinterhalder says. The blocks themselves were made to measure by a concrete supplier.
