PROBLEM
The apartment requires refreshment and adaptation to the needs of residents, especially growing families.
The apartment owners value straightforward, functional solutions and a palette of subdued colors. This residence has undergone a transformative renovation, featuring meticulous wall leveling, fresh paint, new flooring, and a complete overhaul of both the kitchen and bathroom. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to create a harmonious living space that combines style with practicality.
The small kitchen has been completely transformed to optimize functionality and accommodate all essential appliances. The wooden fronts of the tall cabinets add warmth and character, breaking up the monochromatic design of the adjacent storage units. A stunning stone countertop and a stylish backsplash not only elevate the aesthetic appeal but also enhance the overall quality of the space. This kitchen is now a perfect blend of beauty and practicality, ready to inspire culinary creativity.
The small bathroom was designed with a unique approach to maximize space while accommodating all essential items. Cleverly hidden cabinets behind the mirror provide seamless storage solutions, while the washing machine and under-sink cabinet are discreetly tucked away beneath the countertop. A stunning stone countertop serves as a striking focal point, contrasting beautifully with the tiles that mimic architectural concrete. This innovative design ensures both functionality and style, creating an inviting atmosphere in a compact space.
Hexagonal floor tiles in shades of gray add a distinctive character to the space. This design choice allows for additional accessories used by the residents to serve as vibrant color accents, enhancing the overall aesthetic while maintaining a stylish and cohesive look.
