I wanted a huge window to watch the sea, and to get a spacious feel inside. We are a family of four, so I designed bunk beds for the kids and a mezzanine platform for my husband and me. There&#8217;s room for two double mattresses up there, so we can host extra people, but it gets very close. There is a kitchen and bathroom, and a wood burner in the living space &#8211; a Danish must-have. A local builder made the hut on site &#8211; it&#8217;s made of wood with cedar tiles on the outside, in keeping with the Scandinavian feel. People walking on the beach are always looking at it. It might be a bit modernist for some tastes.&#8221; -Nina Tolstrup, interviewed by by Ros Anderson for <a href=\"http:\/\/shopping.guardian.co.uk\/household\/story\/0,,2129383,00.html\" target=\"_blank\">guardian.co.uk<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>[via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dwell.com\/daily\/blog\/25504919.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"broken_link\">dwell<\/a>]<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nina Tolstrup of Studiomama has designed a beach house that&#8217;s fit to post on all the blogs today.
