Penthouse in strak landelijke stijl, volledig ingericht door Marcotte Style

Residential

Penthouse in sleek country style

This penthouse, with its 360 degree view over Brussels, from the Bois de la Cambre south of Avenue Louise to the Sonian Forest, has a unique setting. The sun rises in the large living room, moves into the dining area at midday, and in the evening you can watch it set.

From the kitchen and the master bedroom the view runs endlessly over the trees. The spectacle lasts all day.

The project

From our collection Our full collection

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-3x-1024x683 — Two tones carry the whole apartment: limed oak on the cupboards and panelling, and red in the curtains and the seating. Everything else stays white or grey.

The living and dining room

As an interior designer you have to know how to make the most of a gift like this. The budget rose accordingly, because everything had to be finished down to the last detail. With a location like this, the added value is of course assured.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-6-1024x683 — Living and dining room lie in one space from facade to facade. What divides them is not a wall but light: a chandelier above the seating area, a second above the table, and between them the ceiling stays bare.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-14-1024x681 — Above the dining table for eight hangs the largest chandelier in the apartment.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-6b-1024x683 — Set into the wall is a lit niche with shelves, beside the seating area.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-18-1024x683 — Seen from the opening, the seating is arranged in a square around the coffee table.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-20-1024x683 — The red armchair stands apart by the window, with the city below.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-21-1024x683 — Behind the glass lies the terrace, level with the floor inside.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-19-1024x683 — On the run of cupboards the sculptures and lamps stand evenly spaced, as one line.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-22-1024x683 — The table on pedestal bases seats eight, with the driftwood object as a counterweight.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-23-1024x683 — The terrace door has a brass handle, with the blind beside it.

Details and the hall

With the right furniture, chosen by Marcotte Style, the first impression on entering the hall is set by the details.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-26-1024x683 — The internal doors were given a brass and porcelain handle, on a long backplate.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-30x-1024x683 — On the left the dining room with the red chairs, on the right the buttoned back close up.

The kitchen

The kitchen was given new floor to ceiling windows, which make the space feel larger. Speakers were built into the new lowered ceilings. The brick coloured accent that recurs throughout the apartment returns in the bar stools. The crisper style of the kitchen is subtly broken by limed oak, which keeps the room in keeping with the rest of the penthouse.

From our collection Dining tables Dining chairs

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-83-1024x683 — The terrace runs along the full facade, with a glass balustrade so the view stays clear.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-61-1024x681 — The kitchen faces the living room and therefore works with different materials: a wall in dark timber with the ovens set into it, and against it an island with a top in pale stone. The red bar stools carry the colour over from the dining room.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-65-1024x683 — The island has room for three bar stools, with the blinds behind them.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-67-1024x683 — The sink sits in the island, with the tap in the same brushed finish.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-64-1024x683 — From the sink the worktop runs on to the fridge.

It is the details that give the interior of this penthouse its international air.

Marcottestsyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-177-1024x683 — The same terrace runs on along the bedrooms, with the windows down to the floor.

Marcottestsyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-176-1024x683 — In the master bedroom a desk in glass and chrome stands at the window, so the view becomes the work place. The bed has a headboard in dark leather and stands against a low unit in the same oak as the living room.

Marcottestsyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-178-1024x683 — On the left the desk against the run of wardrobes, on the right the terrace behind the glass.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-77-1024x667 — Seen from the door, the bed stands with its foot towards the window.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-73-1024x683 — The window across the full width turns the bedroom into a lookout.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-78-1024x677 — Beside the bed stands an armchair at the window, with the trees behind.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-80-1024x674 — At the foot of the bed the screen rises out of a low cabinet, so it is gone during the day.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-81-1024x683 — On the left the terrace, on the right the bedroom with the desk between bed and wardrobes.

The bathroom

The bathrooms were given the best materials: taps by Philippe Starck and a design bath. The feeling for nature carries on here in a curved sheet of bespoke plexiglass with branches set into it, which creates a pleasant atmosphere and almost gives the impression that there are two windows in the room. The designer combines lighting at 3000 K with led spots in warm white. The combination is simply beautiful.

From our collection Bathroom cabinets

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-53-1024x683 — The bathroom works with three planes: a strip of mosaic behind the bath, backlit panels with a reed motif beside it, and against them a long vanity in dark stone. The bath stands free, without a surround.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-52b-857x1024 — In the second bathroom the walk-in shower in dark tiling, with a free-standing basin in front of it.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-52x-1024x683 — On the left the shower with a glass shelf, on the right the toilet with the same mosaic strip.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-54x-1024x683 — The free-standing bath stands between the lit panels, with the towel radiator beside it.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-52-1024x683 — The panels behind the bath are lit from behind, so no fitting comes into view.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-56x-1024x683 — On the left the bath beside the long vanity, on the right the wall tap close up.

The terrace

The interior of this exceptional penthouse was entrusted entirely to Marcotte Style, which added considerable value to it. There is sun all day, so automatic awnings were quickly chosen for the three large terraces around the apartment. The thread of brown grey furniture, limed oak panelling and white walls, with a few large brick red accents, brings freshness and holds the whole home together. The sumptuous taffeta curtains in exactly the same shades complete it in the same line. As always, all the details are there. The atmosphere is welcoming. It is no surprise that this project will appear in several interior books.

Marcottestyle-dakterras-15-1024x683 — The terrace wraps around the apartment and is divided into parts: a dining area under the pergola, a lounge corner in the sun and between them planters of lavender that shelter the whole.

Marcottestyle-dakterras-25-1024x683 — Under the pergola stands a long table, with the city behind the planting.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-85-1024x768 — The building holds an indoor swimming pool, with a timber ceiling and lit wall panels.

Marcottestyle-dakterras-16-1024x683 — The planters follow the edge of the roof and keep the wind off the terrace.

Marcottestyle-dakterras-20-1-1024x683 — The round daybed stands among the lavender, with the timber screen as its back.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-86-1024x768 — From the edge you look straight down onto the park and the tennis court.

Marcottestyle-dakterras-3-1-1024x683 — On the other side the loungers stand among white flowering planting.

Marcottestyle-penthouse-strak-landelijke-stijl-175-1024x683 — From outside only the green edge of the roof is visible, above the facade.
