New Avenue — Residential Development at Avenue of United Europe in Żory The planned multi-family residential development is a contemporary response to the needs of the city's residents: comfortable apartments, safe shared spaces, and a structured urban layout that builds genuine neighbourhoods — not just an "address." The scheme comprises 6 nine-storey residential buildings with 2 levels of underground parking. The buildings are grouped into three pairs, each connected by internal recreational courtyards located on the rooftops of the garage sections. This arrangement clearly separates traffic zones from areas of relaxation, while providing residents with a green, intimate "heart" at the centre of each cluster. MUS ARCHITEC... More

Toy Store is an innovative speakeasy cocktail bar designed for a unique hidden experience in the heart of Katowice. Nestled within a 150m2 old tenement building, the venue features large street-facing windows that invite curiosity while concealing the enchanting interior behind what seems to be a simple toy store for children. The design concept masterfully blends a whimsical toy store with an intimate cocktail bar, creating a captivating dual narrative. Caption Upon entering, guests step into a charming toy store filled with shelves of colorful toys and books, where a hidden button unlocks the passage to the clandestine bar. This “gate” leads to a mesmerizing space adorned with shimmering gold accents, a mirrored ceiling,... More

The building was designed on a very long and relatively narrow plot of land. The terrain gently slopes from the local road towards the riverbank. However, this picturesque location had its limitations. Due to the risk of flooding, the regulations only allow construction to take place along the road, raised above the so-called hundred-year flood level. The possibility of building underground floors was also excluded.

We aimed to create inspiring and stimulating kindergarten’s space, to foster kids growth and development. Building acts as a „vassel” for young human beings, where its form casts user’s behavior, sense of security and self-esteem. It offers incentives for joy and exploration. To be a window into their future, to understand the world and build their own identity. While working on the project we focused on maintaining existing buildings layout with a yard in between. That is to expose different building’s proportions and historical changes with its specific details. We introduce new functions that connect all, while keeping them autonomous. Following program requirements, the main existing block has been extend... More

The refinement of the detail, restrained use of color, gray and the severity of the materials used made it easier to include the product display in the building... More

“The clients, a middle-aged couple, approached us with one definite request – they wanted to build a house with no stairs, a house that would be equally practical and enjoyable when they get old. The site offered no obvious clues – a flat piece of land in a second line of buildings, in a suburban part of the city of Wrocław, among disappearing traces of a rural past, surrounded by a chaotic mix of houses of all styles, materials and conditions. The first decision consisted in placing the house along the northern border of the plot, towards the narrow access lane, so that the volume of the house shelters the remaining large garden from unwanted views and nuisances of the nearby road. The “T”-shaped plan clearly reflects the dis... More
