Cottage in the Swedish archipelago

Nin Solis

After years of creating avant-garde retail spaces for Scandinavian fashion brands, a pair of designers has built a deceptively simple home for themselves. Among the many fashion boutiques that Christian and Ruxandra Halleroed have designed is a series of nine stores for the Swedish clothing brand Acne Studios, some of which feel like industrial-size meat lockers, with soaring monolithic brushed stainless-steel walls and floors of mottled poured concrete, terrazzo or concrete-print carpet.
