Entering the apartment designed by the LBWA Studio, we are accompanied by the greenery of trees from a nearby park. The incredibly charming and beautiful Krasinski Garden in Warsaw is the direct neighbor of a cozy, designed with great attention to detail and carefully applied finishing materials, building. This building houses an extraordinary apartment.
After entering, attention is drawn to the natural walnut wood, which is the main material used in the interior. Its beautiful color perfectly complements the shades of green and brown of the trees visible through large glass windows, creating a harmonious effect. Work on the interior design began at the stage of building construction, which made it possible to introduce individual changes to the layout, adapting it to the needs of the owners. The apartment is clearly divided into two zones. The living part consists of an entrance hallway with a closet and an open space living room connected to a kitchen and a dining room. The second part includes children’s room, a small bathroom, a utility room with a laundry room and a main bedroom with a closet and a bathroom.
The entrance hallway was separated from the rest of the place by the large, sliding doors. Wide tiles of ribbed glass mounted in thin, black, aluminum frames, form a delicate partition while simultaneously illuminating the space with a natural light. A soft and sprawling sofa is a center of the living room, creating a relaxing area. This space connects the dining room with a table and library and kitchen. The kitchen was connected to the living space by an island. The top and a frame of the island were made of natural stone. To break the monolithic form, a delicate gap finished with walnut veneer was created. The same stone was also used as a finish for the niche with an induction hob located in the high part of the construction. Tall kitchen cabinets are connected with a hallway leading to the bedrooms. The fronts of cabinets, doors and wall panels were finished with natural walnut veneer - creating a uniform effect. Walnut wood also smoothly translates into the interior of the bathroom and harmoniously combines with dark green tiles, creating a warm aura of this small room.
Behind large wooden doors at the end of the hallway, there is a spacious main bedroom. In its central point, a closet was designed as a division between the bed area and bathroom. Like the hallway, the close was finished with natural walnut veneer. The bathroom at the bedroom is kept in light colors. The only stronger color accent is a shower niche finished with large, pale pink tiles. These tiles blend perfectly with a light natural stone, which was used as a finish for floors and walls in the rest of the bathroom. The whole designed space was complemented by furniture mostly made by individual design. Natural materials such as wood and stone give the apartment a timeless character, well fitting into the surrounding park and the building.
