Designed by Copenhagen-based Valbæk Brørup Architects, VIBO TVÆRVEJ is a summer residence in Nykøbing Sjælland, Denmark. Completed in 2017, the 91-square-meter home is located in a forested area near the Kattegat seashore. It is characterized by a vaulted steel roof and a long, extruded tube shape, giving it a distinctive yet simple aesthetic that reinterprets traditional Danish cabins and barns. Inside, the house features a wood-clad interior with eight visible arched steel beams that create a rhythmic visual flow. The main living space is defined by its high, vaulted ceiling, which, along with large windows at both ends and along the sides of the house, frames views of the treetops and surrounding forest, inviting the landscape inside. The interior is predominantly made of pine, creating an atmosphere that evokes a traditional cabin. A large, open loft space acts as a bridge between the two ends of the house, enhancing the sense of open space. The layout includes three bedrooms, two of which are tucked beneath the loft. A fenced-in outdoor bathing area is accessible from the single bathroom via a sliding glass door. A pop of color is added in the kitchen with blue cabinets, and in the bathroom with ocher-colored tiles.
