LIVING ROOM

Homeowner Carice van Houten fell in love with this purple Kvadrat carpet, says designer Nicole Dohmen of Atelier ND Interior, and everything else for the room fell into place from there. Sofas: Baxter (green); vintage Afra and Tobia Scarpa, Sit On Vintage (orange). Coffee table: Kooij. Painting: Peggy Kuiper. Side table: custom, Atelier ND Interior. Curtains: Élitis.

BEDROOM

The paint color, Pontefract by Paint & Paper Library, is so unique it defies definition which is one of the many reasons the design team chose it. Chair: vintage Afra and Tobia Scarpa, Pendants: sourced from an old church. Curtains Zoffany, Sanderson Design Group.

DINING ROOM

Dohmen refers to this room as the Glass House, due to the expansive windows (it was used as a greenhouse in the home's earlier years). Window treatments: Helene Blanche (Roman shades); Étoffe (curtains). Table: Sabine Marcelis. Dining chairs: vintage Afra and Tobia Scarpa for Gavina, in Pierre Frey mohair (also used in the study).
