At the top of a hill in the scenic Österlen landscape you will find one of Scandinavia's finest culinary experiences. Daniel Berlin, who previously ran the two-star restaurant Daniel Berlin Krog, has now embarked on a new journey with restaurant Vyn. With Vyn he wanted to create a truly Scandinavian experience with a seasonal kitchen and an interior that matches the surrounding nature.

The restaurant truly lives up to its name, Vyn ("the view"), with an enchanting view over the Baltic Sea. Interior architect Lisa Mannheimer of Fojab Arkitekter, who worked closely with Daniel on the project, explains that the vision was "to create a place, a destination, a complete experience where the restaurant, the food and the service are central but where the interior becomes an important part of the overall experience."

The building has been revitalised with carefully chosen materials to make sure the vision was realised. Guests are met by warm, natural materials such as wood, stone, leather and wool that match the Nordic atmosphere of the restaurant and hotel. Wherever possible, local makers and producers of furnishings and furniture were chosen.

"What matters to me is working with building details, materials, furnishings and furniture that maintain a high quality and appeal to all our senses. It has to last, it has to age with dignity, but it must also be beautiful to the eye and preferably pleasant to hold and soft to the touch. If it also smells good, like limestone and wood, that's an extra bonus," explains Lisa.

The focus on sustainability, high quality and design includes the choice of doors and hardware. When Daniel first bought Njord's doors for his home, he realised they would also be perfect for his new restaurant. The doors have been adapted for the restaurant – around the reception and in selected areas there are doors clad in oak panelling that harmonise with the setting. Every hotel room has doors in a deep green colour, and the impressive entrance door, a double oak door with side lights, was also made specially for the restaurant. "We are proud to have contributed to this project. As a food enthusiast and admirer of Daniel's talent, it is especially pleasing," says Johan Kinning of Njord.

Throughout the hotel and restaurant, guests experience the superior quality of stainless steel handles from two of d line's best-loved collections, designed by Arne Jacobsen and Knud Holscher. Arne Jacobsen's iconic curved handle was in fact designed after the shape of the palm's grip – creating an organic form and a soft touch.
