Subtle luxury is the first thing whispered by the interiors of a residence nestled in a pine forest just outside Warsaw. The well-being of the inhabitants is influenced by high-quality natural materials and timeless decor, meticulously crafted by the Warsaw-based Hola Design studio. A comfortable spa and pool area, integrated into the home, ensure full relaxation.
A three-person family, for whom the interior of the house was designed by the Hola Design studio, lives in symbiosis with nature. The proximity of the forest, where they take walks with their dog, the soothing silence, and the favorite greenery of pine trees provide a sense of happiness. The investors wanted the house to be an extension of this coexistence, their own oasis of tranquility. Therefore, nature infiltrates through the panoramic windows of the living room, flooding the space with daylight and allowing immersion in the surrounding nature. The architecture of the house and its interiors has been carefully designed to harmonize with the nearby forest. Boundaries become fluid. The patio encourages the use of outdoor space, creating a harmonious connection between the domestic tranquility and the environment.
"Designing the interiors, we knew that the color palette and natural materials would be crucial," say Monika and Adam Bronikowski from the Hola Design studio. The architects enriched the palette of grays and beiges with shades of green, orange, and black, harmonizing with the colors outside the windows. Together, they create an atmosphere conducive to relaxation.
Oak wood takes the lead - on the floor, in the furnishings, and even on the ceiling - providing a warm and cozy atmosphere. The character of the interiors is defined by furniture designed by Hola Design with wooden, lacquered veneers. The natural slate finishing the wall by the fireplace is also noteworthy. This wall is part of a granite block that serves as the heart of the home. A multifunctional element, designed by Hola Design, incorporates a TV cabinet, shelf, and storage while also separating the living room from the kitchen. To give the massive block a sense of lightness, designers illuminated it from above and below with LED strips, creating an impression of floating in the air.
A similar approach was taken with the stairs. Their sculptural form is accentuated by subtle, lower lighting. The cantilevered construction looks light and modern, thanks also to the transparent railing. The glass surface doesn't take away space or light but reveals a two-story wall finished with decorative, vertical wallpaper. Golden details on dark, bottle-green add sophistication and elegance to the interior.
Bedrooms located on the upper floor are kept in a delicate, light palette of grays and beiges, enriched with green and violet. In the master bedroom, designers applied an interesting technique - placing a mirror under the slats above the bed. "In its plane, the window and the forest are reflected, satisfying the need for close contact with nature. Daylight also reaches the bathroom, separated from the room only by a glass partition with sliding doors. A freestanding, minimalist bathtub invites relaxation," explains Monika Bronikowska. The children's bedroom features a comfortable seat in the panoramic window, conducive to moments of calm.
However, the true temple of relaxation is the integrated SPA zone within the home, equipped with a gym, sauna, and hydro-massage pool. The illuminated, decorative wall made of salt bricks not only captivates with its spectacular appearance but also, due to its air-ionizing properties, creates an atmosphere full of freshness. The combination of natural textures with comfortable furniture provides the residents with an excellent space for unwinding.
In line with the concept of quiet luxury, every element of this family space among oaks and pines is simultaneously aesthetic and functional, promoting internal harmony.
