STAIRS INT

A two-level apartment in Sochi has joined the collection of unusual projects of our studio. The task from the customers was to create an interior in the usual loft style with the addition of original spatial solutions. The area of the apartment is small-67 sq. m, but our designers took into account the needs of all residents, including little dog york. Caption The history of the interior began with the transfer of an opening in the ceiling for the stairs, which made it possible to create an open loft, which customers dreamed of. The configuration of the metal staircase is non-standard and designed according to the sketches of the studio. Mikhail Chekalov A parking space is provided in the side of one of the steps.

East West

The power of family traditions combined with the creative power of architects is the lifeblood of an atmospheric home.The apartment with a panoramic view of the right bank of Kyiv was created with a recognizable, bright color in the "colonial loft" style - a mix of classic European architectural traditions with hot ethnic and vintage elements from the cultures of the East.

Enjoy the Silence

This project was implemented on the territory of an already existing family house. This cosy chalet was created thanks to a combination of opposites – as a hiding place for solitary meditations and relaxation from the frantic pace of life or a place for warm meetings with close friends and active communication. Serhii Polyushko From the outside, the austere and minimalist building has enormous stained glass windows to incorporate the vast and varied panorama of the garden into the interior. Adjoining territory created the landscape long before the idea of its construction. Our task was to fit it harmoniously into the existing environment. Serhii Polyushko The building on stilts is elevated above the ground. The chalet&rsq... More

BJM Apartment

The apartment is located on the 5th floor of a house from the early 20th century in a residential part of Prague and has an area of 100 m2. South-facing windows ensure very good daylight and a pleasant atmosphere throughout the apartment. Alexander Dobrovodsky We adapted the classic layout with individual rooms and a long entrance hall to the current ways of living, cooking and relaxing by removing most of the partitions. In this way, we turned an ordinary 2 + 1 (2 rooms + kitchen) into an open loft with a steel-glass partition into the bedroom. Privacy is additionally insured by a velvet curtain. Alexander Dobrovodsky The resulting 80-meter open space is divided through colors and materials. While the bedroom is a teal cube, th... More

Broadway Loft - Gilsey House

Worrell Yeung’s Broadway Loft project consists of the gut renovation of a unitin the NoMad neighborhood of Manhattan’s historic Gilsey House building, originally a Beaux Arts style hotel built in 1867, for a couple and their young son. The family had lived in the apartment for nearly 14 years and had been looking to purchase a new home to solve their growing need for additional space, privacy, and storage. After searching, however, the couple realized they owned a unique space with deep personal significance; it had been with them through multiple life-changing events, including the loss of a child. If redesigned to create more storage, enhanced access to natural light, and an additional bathroom and bedroom, it could be their i... More

Johnson St Loft

The intrigue of the large volume of interior space in these existing New Orleans Shotgun dwellings directed the concept of converting this space and flow into a more efficient and modern design. Challenges to this project included specific restrictions due to its unusual property boundary as well as budget limitations. However, this afforded me the full autonomy of the project design and execution. Caption Caption Seeing the extensive attic space in historic shotguns as advantageous, two levels were created optimizing every inch of height to produce a spacious yet intimate area for bedrooms. Locating the kitchen and more ‘public’ space towards the front afforded efficiency to the circulation of the residence. At the i... More

Collection MODUL - Thibault Pougeoise

The MODUL collection is simply awesome! It is composed of a 2 or 3 seater sofa, an armchair and an ottoman that can also be considered as an ottoman.With MODUL, it is mainly a question of playing, modulating, inter-changing the colors according to the seasons, desires or needs. Who said that modular sofas are mainly reserved for large spaces? MODUL is perfect for small rooms with its armchair or 2-seater sofa version, as well as spacious lofts by combining the 3-seater sofa with its armchair version with its ottoman. Each element is made up of several modules with assertive and structured shapes, which fit together to form a very graphic character set.   More

OIA

The challenge lies in the creation of something beautiful without relying on the simple principle of symmetry.
