Panel apartment at Jarov
The panel apartment in Prague's Jarov no longer met the family's needs. The children were growing, and it became necessary to find a way to create an additional room. But how to add an extra room without disrupting the functionality of the apartment, while also improving its spaces? The solution lay in the smart use of every square meter and the opening up of communal areas, which brought not only more light but also a more spacious and better-organized home.
The original layout of the apartment was cramped, full of doors, corridors, and intricate corners that visually reduced the space and limited its practicality. Cleaning up the layout brought a greater sense of freedom. The key to success was connecting the kitchen, living room, and hallway, creating an airy and bright central space where the family can naturally meet and communicate. The living room, originally generous with two windows, transformed—part of it became a new bedroom with a workspace for the parents. This successfully created the necessary privacy for all family members without sacrificing the apartment's connectivity.
Each room now precisely serves its purpose—no space is unnecessarily large or disproportionately small. The children received their own rooms, complemented by a shared playroom that also serves as a home gym. Sport plays an important role in this family, and it was clear that the interior must reflect the residents' active lifestyle.
Built-in storage spaces, sliding panels, and console shelf systems allow for efficient organization without overwhelming the space. The dominant white color brings calm to the apartment and highlights the carefully selected accents—colors in the tiles, textiles, and shades. Wooden elements made of birch plywood add warmth and softness to the interior.
The lighting follows the spirit of functional simplicity. Linear fixtures hidden in recesses under the ceiling provide effective yet unobtrusive lighting that contributes to the harmony of the entire space.
The result is an apartment that feels larger, is full of light, and offers the family not only more space but also better conditions for shared life and individual relaxation.
