A Japanese-Inspired Designer Home Among Trees

In the small Jutlandish town of Skåde, Casa Rand beautifully immerse itself with the park-like surroundings. Taking inspiration from Japanese design principles, the design of the house is extremely detail-oriented with a strong focus on minimalism and simplicity. The materials used for the house count natural oak, plywood, Norwegian slate, and in-situ concrete, creating a tasteful mix of raw aesthetics and refined architecture.

Hey thanks for sharing high end modern houses. Just a one suggestion here, I think at least for my sake I would want to see the spaces more in sequence. From the door entry - lobby - living space - kitchen - bed room - bath room - out door terraces - gardens.. so on. It would be good that the video has sense of sequence that really leads viewers into each areas.

[@RestlessLiving]

Thanks for the feedback. 🙏🏼 I always plan the sequences ahead, but to ensure that the episodes stay interesting, I think it is necessary to avoid making the order too predictable. The most important thing is to maintain the flow of the story. 👌🏼

[@nobizzybap]

The tour guide is just adorable. The video became super light hearted and wholesome 😆🫶🏼

[@RestlessLiving]

Thank you, I appreciate it! 😁

[@thatapartmentgirl]

I love the exterior facade of the home.It’s so nice that it underwhelms the inside a ton since you can tell they focused on the architecture of the house and not the interior design, except the staircase which is exquisite.

[@PENNYLEE0649]

Loved the cement elements, oak custom shelving, kitchen layout, cement patios, just not the noisy kids.

[@primo_budino]

Love your enthusiasm. One piece of feedback, don’t edit out walking into the entryway. The first impression of opening the door is a big deal!

[@lydiarowe491]

The stair case is stunning…the best feature of the house..noticed the glass panel adjacent to the front door exposed it as an art piece before walking inside..almost like a welcome mat for this amazing house…thanks for sharing…it seemed that you were impressed also..😊

[@enthony1908]

I enjoyed every second of the video, amazing home!

[@RestlessLiving]

Thanks a lot! 🙌🏼

[@cookiesncream789]

The tour guide in the video is so excited about the house, which made the video even more enjoyable! I loved his positive energy and the house 🏠 is beautiful 😍!

[@RestlessLiving]

Thank you so much. I appreciate it. 🙏🏼

[@priority19]

thanks for showing

[@reneesmith695]

Beautiful!❤️

[@forward_ever_ever2595]

Seemed so simple but beautiful & unique. The staircase....crazy!!!

[@krpbdp]

Thanks for the tour of this unique and exquisite house. However, you've ignored the rhinoceros in the room. The artwork makes such a strong statement complimenting this amazing architecture, that the painter(s) should be noted along with the tour.

[@Gingersnaappp]

Love the space!

[@MrPinkfloydian]

One of the most spectacular houses I've ever seen. WOW! Thanks 👍

[@AX1A]

Super intelligent, sensitive, and effectively emotive design (... perfectly presented by CT, the host)

[@PG-ts9xz]

Wonderful! Love your enthusiasm.

[@RestlessLiving]

Thanks. I appreciate it! 😊

[@janec4]

Wow those stairs!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@RestlessLiving]

Yes, they are indeed special! 👌🏼

[@isfymutiarahidayat8186]

Wonderfull thanks for sharing with us ❤️❤️❤️

[@RestlessLiving]

You are very welcome! Stay tuned, there will be much more coming. 😍

Beautiful House

[@TP-3000]

LOVE that

[@OrendaDesignStudio]

Amazing 😍😍😍.

[@NaughtyChachhu]

So many takeaways in this one... Loved the concrete look n feel of the house.

[@RestlessLiving]

Yes - the episode also became a bit longer than normal. 😅 What do you think? Did it work well?

[@NaughtyChachhu]

@@RestlessLiving Storytelling is such a thing which should not bound to time or duration. and to see and experience such art virtually, why not.

[@RestlessLiving]

@@NaughtyChachhu Thanks for the feedback! 🙏🏼 Even though I tend to agree, I doubt people want to see me chat for 3 hours straight 😂

[@NaughtyChachhu]

@@RestlessLiving 3 hrs is too much, then I will ask it to publish on Netflix as a series :D

[@brunodamasceno1085]

Outstanding!

This house is beautiful

[@stephentshima]

This man is so funny - I love it😂😂😂, really nice tour😍😍😍

[@RestlessLiving]

Thank you very much. I completely agree - I am soooo funny 😂😂

[@Gatecrasher1]

that huge one piece window--amazing

[@RestlessLiving]

Right?! 😍

[@MokingJay-Ilysium]

❤ and in winter but naked and attraction for the neighbourhood because I see in the distance we on the trees buildings. I see also some blinds so maybe they thought of it.

[@wavewithvayu]

Such a nice house!

[@RestlessLiving]

I completely agree! 👌🏼

[@jamiereife5581]

Thanks for showing us. I’m a little disappointed that the master bedroom does not employ feng shui.

[@Leo_S94]

Really love your videos, been a long time follower on Instagram. The tours are fantastic and not rushed. Do you guys plan to visit and show other parts of Europe and their architecture? Like stunning Italy for example.

[@RestlessLiving]

Thanks a lot for the support. It is much appreciated! 🙏🏼 Yes - we actually plan on shooting tours all around the world. With COVID, travelling is quite restricted at the moment, so we had to start “at home”.

[@user-ge8nu8dt9s]

Reminds me of Louis Kahn's works, especially his Yale British Gallery.

[@raghavendrap6221]

I find so many things that doesn’t fit in the place like 1. The sliding divider door with a mirror in the centre where you can miss the privacy if you have a mirror. 2. The mirror in the bathroom with a switch in the middle of it which might scare any person for it can be a cam and the lights around the mirror which has no purpose at all. 3. I doubt whether this plywood stairs would really meet the purpose. After all my point is beauty without any purpose is not viable option. Sorry for being so negative but this is what I felt in my heart. But I like the mirror views it’s real and beautiful.

[@gothamcitybat]

very very cool review🎉🎉🎉

[@RestlessLiving]

Thank you!

[@JohnSmith008]

Посмотрел несколько видео с домами за сотни миллионов долларов. Ничего не понравилось. А домик в этом видео скромный, уютный и душевный. Спасибо!

[@OrendaDesignStudio]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@jtraczyk9421]

“The staircase is made of 6 billion popsicle sticks.”

[@nsns4009]

Thanks man if u and owners dont mind pls share the floor plans for better understanding what is all about😅

[@igaluitchannel6644]

The upper terrace could be greener. Concrete walls are nice, but how to wash eventually?

[@leticiaoberding373]

My favorite tour so far! Lovely painting, btw, is the owner who painted it?

[@RestlessLiving]

Thanks a lot! 🙏🏼 No, he didn’t paint it himself.

[@veronicatissera9803]

Who is the artist?

[@yamrajji2569]

Should have very inch toured... By the way where is this plot

[@RestlessLiving]

I highly doubt we will ever get to tour every inch of a home. We are not aiming to be real estate agents, but trying to make architectural content a tad more entertaining to watch. At the same time, people live in the homes we tour so we must be respectful to them and their wishes.

[@lancemillward1912]

You should blur the car plate. Dream house

[@RestlessLiving]

Thanks for the feedback. 🙏🏼 I might do that for the future videos.

Did you say the Chinese of "plants" 盆栽at 10:35 ? It's vary cute

[@RestlessLiving]

Yes 😅

[@ubcliftons9864]

I think I’m the only African here, how come I didn’t discover your page on time..❤️

[@RestlessLiving]

Better late than never! 😍

[@mydom7618]

it has rather artistic value

[@jamesadongo9630]

Simply timeless

[@raphaelreiter]

amazing house! I enjoy your videos! But your camera man needs to learn to focus his shots... or just shoot in automatic? I dont know what he's doing but its always a bit blurry and unfocused...

[@RestlessLiving]

Yes, we might try shooting with autofocus instead, as the tours are quite dynamic. It can just be a bit annoying if the AF is changing in the middle, no? 😊

[@raphaelreiter]

@@RestlessLiving Honestly, I don't know I'm not a professional and my camera skills are sub-par at best. But maybe you can look in some forums, or pay for a few hours a consultant that will help you. You are such a good reviewer, and the houses you present are awesome. So this will really boost your channel, for sure. Keep on the great work, we are looking for inspiration on building our home

[@RestlessLiving]

@@raphaelreiter Great to hear! We just got started, so we are always looking for ways to improve, and camera focus is one of several points we are working on right now. I am sure it will get better soon. 🙌🏼

[@steves9905]

nope. the guy's enthusiasm is super, but man this is the coldest house i've ever seen...hard and barren. would have like to have seen the 1870's house that was torn down to make way for this...

[@abdulkafikhan182]

Hey you please with 2D & 3D & Elevation

[@ceeviking5713]

Dinghy guy!

[@RestlessLiving]

Thank you! 😊

[@alberthscheung]

May I know where is this house?

[@RestlessLiving]

Close to Aarhus, Denmark. 😊

[@majorneptunejr]

Love the house but I can't help to think about the birds that will crash into all those large windows.

[@MsKellypatrick]

Lamps

[@ricardoantunes71]

Insta question, oak or pine? Is oak. But see the house. 😉

[@RestlessLiving]

Correct! And yes - definitely watch the episode 😅

[@ivysramirez1197]

Only one bedroom?

[@RestlessLiving]

There were bedrooms for the kids too (connected to the kitchen), but we focused on the most interesting parts of the house. 👌🏼

[@boburwell9921]

The Wolfs Lair

[@suleg.6051]

El espejo frente a la cama 😮no podría dormir ahí. La ventana justo arriba de la cama 😑 es peligroso, la mezcla de materiales es buena pero la hubicacion de las cosas no.

[@nomanghazanfar7652]

Where are you from Love From Pakistan

[@RestlessLiving]

I am from Denmark. 🙌🏼

[@tpt8476]

the grey brick, the moon gate, the natural materials, the skylight inner courtyard are clearly Chinese Jiang Nan (Suzhou) style. To the untrained western eyes, everything Asian is Japanese.

[@divyabirsingh2905]

I thought this had something to do with ayn rand...

[@RestlessLiving]

😅 The owner (and designer) is named Tommy Rand.

[@peterbradshaw8018]

International style.. Updated.

[@smellimoon]

the grading makes this so hard to watch

[@RestlessLiving]

You are more than welcome to watch our new videos then. 😊

[@colorPro72]

[@eliasgamerverden421]

Det er miet hus

[@cartersimmons697]

He has the ability to explain the obvious so incredibly badly. I wish he could explain better what was done especially with the stairway.

[@ginasmitasin479]

That poor Japanese Maple will never recover, I’d make sure it’s not Anthracnose that is killing it…do not replant into that for a number of years. Big pot with a new Japanese Maple until it’s safe.

[@Rainn_F]

Less is more

[@RestlessLiving]

Indeed!

[@conradsherod]

Ehh. Needs more wabi sabi.

[@reneemallinson388]

If only people would go away and let us see the design. What's wrong with off-screen commentary?

[@martinjohnson2549]

Would be a lot better without the stupid fake brick cladding. Stairs cut out of 600 hundred ply wood sheets sounds wasteful. Windows, the shape of the building are in plus, destroying historical building isn't.

[@user-ws4mj7hw6b]

집짓고 죽이고 싶은 인간있음

[@1hayes1]

Only an architect would consider that handrail a "design solution." Rigorous and impressive as a fabrication, but a total ergonomic fail. What has happened to good Danish design?

[@movimientoinformativo5314]

He´s weird

[@RestlessLiving]

Thanks! 😍

[@meisteso]

I thought it said this was on cnbc. Obviously I was mistake . This is awful

[@RestlessLiving]

Take a look at our newest videos from Slovakia instead. They are better quality. 👍🏼

[@matthewbarnishin4806]

I had to stop watching because of your presentation. Show the home. Don’t be a distraction to the home.

[@RestlessLiving]

Thanks for the feedback. It has been a learning process for us, where we have tried out different things. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Try to watch our newer videos. Maybe you will enjoy them more. 😊

[@michelvandepol1485]

nice house, very poor unprofessional video

[@RestlessLiving]

Thanks for the kind words. Have a nice day 😊
