What The Lund Collection lacks in size, it more than makes up for in personality. Bergman Design House has transformed a one-bedroom private cottage in the Cotswolds into a quirky bolthole, complete with original artwork, vintage treasures and luxury details throughout…
Bergman Design House, the design studio that is about to complete the debut property for The Other House, has taken a one-bedroom private cottage, just a stone’s throw from Chipping Norton and Great Tew, and converted it into a design-led staycation oasis.

The Lund Collection is exquisitely decorated by the husband-and-wife design duo, Marie Soliman and Albin Berglund and features a carefully-curated collection of original artwork and vintage treasures alongside new bespoke furniture from the studio’s Black Berg Collection. From 17th century Chinese ceramics and an 18th-century marriage armoire turned showstopping drinks cabinet to a modern and luxurious deep-soaking bathtub, design enthusiasts will marvel at the wonders on display.

“What’s been so enjoyable about this project has been the ‘treasure hunt’ for the most incredible antique and vintage finds, all of which tell their own unique story while highlighting the beauty of the newer items next to them,” said Soliman. “It’s an approach I like to call ‘organised chaos’; the creation of a space that is both functional and timeless, with a playful hint of surprise or whimsical energy.”
Inspired by the beauty of the Cotswolds, the property features a colour palette that reflects all four seasons, from the vibrant green of Summer to the russet-oranges of Autumn. In combination with some of the most distinguished furniture and textile artisans in the UK, including upholstery from the likes of Robert Kime, Tori Murphy and de Le Cuona, the result is an authentic, charming and quality interior design scheme that feels true and connected to its roots.

Creating and designing the property has been a passion project for Soliman and Berglund, and they hope it will be a sanctuary for future guests seeking zen and an escape in the countryside. “We fell in love with this cottage and the absolutely stunning countryside. We are so thrilled to share it with our guests. It is intended to be a sanctuary for all who visit – we want our guests to come here and truly switch off, connect with nature and feel at home,” said Soliman.
