Apartament 15 – Swanky corner

This two-room apartment of approximately 60 square meters was approached as an exercise in recalibration rather than expansion. The brief was not to add space, but to change its perception — to work with limits until they began to feel intentional.

The original bedroom was small, compressed between a long hallway and an exterior wall, so, instead of reinforcing enclosure, we chose to dissolve it. The solid wall was replaced by a partition of fluted glass and timber, allowing light and depth to travel while preserving privacy. The bedroom becomes less a separate room and more a suspended volume — present, but not heavy, adding a bohemian vibe to the overall space.

Living / open space are came with the biggest challenge, where kitchen and lounge share an irregular, angular geometry. Rather than neutralizing this condition, we used it as a point of departure. A single hybrid object anchors the space: part island, part sofa, part work surface. 

As for the “look and feel”, the apartment was conceived for rental, which required a careful balance between universality and character. Materials and colors remain accessible, yet are punctuated by deliberate moments of tension: warm wood against graphic patterns, soft textiles beside sculptural lighting, restrained surfaces interrupted by expressive details. The result is an interior that resists anonymity without insisting on authorship.

Contemporary and eclectic in its language, the space does not aim to impress immediately. Instead, it reveals itself gradually — through proportion, texture, and the quiet confidence of elements that know exactly why they are there.
