# Natural Material Stilted Homes Johan Sundberg Arkitektur Completes the Yngsjö Holiday Home By Amy Duong | Published 2025-03-24 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yngsj References: [dezeen](https://www.dezeen.com/2025/03/19/yngsjo-holiday-house-johan-sundberg/) & [johansundberg](https://www.johansundberg.com/)  Swedish design firm Johan Sundberg [Arkitektur](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sommarhus-e) designs the Yngsjö holiday home. It is made with natural materials and a light tonal palette which is compatible with the environment of southern Sweden. It is dubbed after its location -- Yngsjö is just by the Baltic Sea shores. The house was constructed as a [tranquil retreat away from city life](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haus-am-lagnesberg) for a Swedish family based in London. Sundberg explains, "I aimed to reduce complexity but avoid reductionism, creating a house that stands out while still adapting to its surrounding. The kitchen, entirely in oak, adds a warm, mysterious quality to the interior – it became delightful, darker and a bit more mysterious than I first imagined. The woodworking around the awnings and the quality of light filtering through the ceiling exceeded our expectations from the model work."
