Kebony unveils Villa Melkeveien, its latest residential project in Oslo Kebony today announces its latest residential project, Villa Melkeveien, in Oslo, Norway. Situated on a sunny hillside in Holmenkollen overlooking Oslo, the floor to ceiling windows provide spectacular views of the city, stretching out towards the Oslo Fjord. A strikingly modern building designed by LOGG Arkitekter, the villa is wrapped in horizontal Kebony cladding and glass and is truly breath-taking in appearance, contrasting and yet complementing to the other villas in the neighbourhood. The four bedroom house, consisting of two main blocks in a T-shape formation, occupies 300m², with an additional 50m² garage. The large lounge and kitchen have direct access to the terrace and the spectacular views. The house also has a spa room and a separate guest area with its own kitchen and bathroom. Completed in 2014, after a two year build process, the house has been built on a previously unoccupied site. The modern family house was commissioned by an owner-occupier private client who appointed LOGG Arkitekter. Inspiration for the design was drawn from the spectacular scenery that surrounds the Vettakollen hill.
