We maintained the standard of a 3+kk apartment, but with radical interventions, such as large openings into the internal load-bearing wall, built-in furniture, and lowered ceilings, we fundamentally changed the spatial arrangement of the apartment. The original layout of separate rooms with a corridor has been merged into one central living space with a built-in bedroom, from which the hallway and kitchen are accessible - lowered alcoves with storage space in the ceiling, and a corner room. The enlarged bathroom is illuminated by natural light from the hallway through a translucent glass wall.
Generous proportions of the spaces, large formats of glossy laminate panels, subtle contrasts of glossy and matte white surfaces, ordinary fluorescent fixtures hidden in construction grooves, flat heating elements recessed in the window sill recess, as well as oil-treated parquet flooring and a few details - a sink glued under a thin laminate board, all elevated the standard of the apartment to the desired level.
All technical equipment, storage spaces, as well as details and surface connections retreat to the boundaries of the clean space of the rooms, into niches and grooves in the masonry. It is not about technologically demanding artistic minimalism, but about thoughtfully constructing the connections of rough masonry work to precise locksmith products of hidden door frames. It is easy to integrate carpentry products with acknowledged seamless joints into such a refined rough structure, or to align their size with the grout lines of tiles and cladding. The resulting space, cleared of anything that would disturb its clearly defined shape, can be freely furnished by the client.
