Dutch supermodel, Romee Strijd has made a permanent move back to her own country after living in New York for many years. Her dream home was built by her and her boyfriend, Laurens van Leeuwen, and the family has now moved into the South Holland home after months of construction and furnishing.
Romee posts a video on her YouTube channel showing Laurens and her showing off their brand-new house. "Welcome to our long-awaited home tour. We're finally done with our house. We're ready to show you our house, so let's go inside," When the couple enters the living area, their interior design aesthetic is immediately apparent: muted colors, simple furnishings, and natural materials. "The whole house has the same style," Laurens adds.
The expansive natural stone kitchen and living area are followed by the upper floor. There, we can see their daughter, Mint's room and the bedrooms of Romee and Laurens. Even Mint's play area is painted the same color. Romee claims that colorful toys are particularly common.
There is a guest bedroom, which is good news for the couple's friends and relatives. The only drawback is that it lacks a window, which can make it feel somewhat claustrophobic. In any case, it is possible to sleep in a room when everything is actually the same color.
Romee, of course, has a walk-in closet that is the same color. By the time you reach that part of the video, the amount of pairs of shoes that do have color almost shocks you.
Romee and Laurens' bathroom has a unique shower. A tiny bench has been positioned underneath the shower head. "At first we didn't want a bench in the shower, but now we actually never shower standing up." Romee likes to take her showers while seated because she was pregnant at the time the house was being built.
A spacious garden with a swimming pool, jacuzzi, and actual gym is also located behind the house. Laurens also notices that there are a few plants there, but not many. "It could be a bit greener, but that's a process. Now it's very modern and simplistic."
