Located in Warsaw’s Mokotów district, the flat was designed by Hey Studio lead Klaudia Lis. It is a 104 sq m space with a terrace and a view of the greenery. The investors wanted an interior that would be minimalist and functional, but also accommodate personal items and souvenirs.
The main idea of the project was to create an open, spacious space that at the same time allows for a clear division of functional zones. The dominant geometric lines here give the flat a rhythm and emphasise the modern character.
An important part of the flat is the corridor, which has been separated using anthracite and black tones. It extends from the entrance area to the centre and has ample storage space. The other parts of the interior are a colourful counterbalance. The bedroom is dominated by a blue-turquoise shade that promotes relaxation, right next door is the private bathroom in beige tones. The guest bathroom, on the other hand, is dominated by an energetic yellow colour that contrasts with the rest of the interior.
The heart of the flat, however, is the living area with a large cognac-coloured sofa. The intense shade brings all the elements together into a coherent whole. The kitchen with dining area is also part of the living area. The kitchen has a practical island combined with a table.
The functional layout was achieved by making several changes to the developer’s plan. The entire wall separating the rooms and bedrooms from the living room with an annex was demolished. As a result, it was possible to incorporate a bookcase and storage cupboards into the wall. The changes also made it possible to create a bedroom with a private bathroom.
A decorative element of the interior is the staircase leading to the terrace. Their geometry fits seamlessly into the minimalist style of the flat. At the top of them is a terrace with additional space for relaxation.
The minimalist approach of the residents can also be seen in the concealment of most furnishings and objects – clever storage and built-ins keep the interior clean and tidy, emphasising its openness and simplicity. One of these is a black, open bookcase, built into the wall. It serves both a practical and decorative function, adding depth and character to the interior. This flat is an example of a space that combines modernity, minimalism and bold accents,” concludes the designer.
