The Stillwood House (by Maria Lyalina) is a study in thoughtful restraint. Designed around natural materials and sculptural forms, this home embraces organic modern living without feeling stark. Every space is grounded and tactile.
Wood plays a central role throughout, bringing warmth and continuity from room to room. Gentle curves soften the architecture, while layered lighting and muted tones create an atmosphere that feels serene at any hour of the day. Nothing feels loud. Nothing feels forced.
The living space in the Stillwood House is designed around stillness and flow. Low-profile seating keeps the room grounded, allowing the architecture, wood paneling, and natural light to take the lead. Soft, neutral upholstery creates a calm base; sculptural silhouettes add quiet character without overwhelming the space.
Seating is arranged to feel relaxed and intentional. Modular sofas invite lounging, while curved accent chairs soften the layout and encourage conversation. Nothing feels rigid. Every piece is placed to support comfort and ease, whether the room is used for quiet reflection or shared moments.
Natural textures tie everything together. Warm wood, woven fabrics, and subtle stone elements add tactility. Paired with layered lighting and a restrained palette, the living area feels serene, cohesive, and deeply livable.
The kitchen and dining area continue the Stillwood House’s calm and organic vibe. Warm wood cabinetry with vertical detailing sets a quiet tone, while stone countertops add contrast without breaking the softness of the palette. Everything feels intentional, clean, and easy to live with.
The layout is simple and fluid. The kitchen wraps gently around the space, keeping sightlines open and movement effortless. Integrated appliances and minimal hardware let materials take center stage, while soft under-cabinet lighting adds warmth throughout the day and evening.
Dining is treated as an extension of the kitchen, not a separate zone. A sculptural table base and curved wooden chairs bring subtle elegance, encouraging slow meals and conversation. Natural light filters through sheer curtains and blinds, softening the room and reinforcing the home’s organic modern character.
