Chernyi Coffeeroasters
When we rented the premises the builders were already knocking out old historical bricks. We have asked to keep them to use at the cash register allowing each cafe guest to touch the hundred-year`s history.
This is the memory of the place that along with its history was crucial

Embers Restaurant
Embers Restaurant is a place of mixed oriental cuisine. As the basis for the concept, we took the idea of combining different things in one, different layers of cooking and culture in one place.

On the vertical axis, sharp lines emphasize its strict character, while on the horizontal axis, the curvature tends to smooth out this notion. The unobstructed panoramic view concerned a focus point of the architectural approach and a vital component of the building. A minimal design approach which preserves the traditional style dominates the configuration of the windows and the bay-windows which surround the building. Earthy colors allow a smooth integration into the surrou... More

APARTMENT SS
The “Apartment SS” project included a complete adaptation of the apartment located in Banovo Brdo disctrict (Belgrade), in a residential building from the 1960s. The works took nearly a year and included architectural and furniture design as well as full supervision of the process.The client, a young choreographer, wanted to turn a somewhat shabby old apartment, that was almost untouched since the time in which it was built, into a strongly personalized, modern and aesthetically boldly shaped living space.The functional challenge was fitting an entry hall with a wardrobe and a shoe closet, a kitchen with a dining room, a bedroom with a makeup table and a dresser, and a living room, into a small surface area of 51 square meters.As a result,...
