I found these pictures of a Swedish contemporary lakeside cottage and absolutely love how this cottage looks like it has been made with love over the years, and at the same time it looks so fresh and contemporary. This is a great example how you can use old furniture and new ones mixed – and how you can bring lake / oceanside inside your home without it being overpowering. What do you think?

I love it! The corner entryway is really cool. It could easily be an American home, aside from the bathroom.
