It is 70 sq m in size and its interior was designed by Aleksandra Hyz. The interior of the flat in Łódź is a mixture of different aesthetic motifs, which together create an attractive space. The design meets the needs of the owner, hence the clear division into different zones. What does it look like?
The architectural story begins as soon as you cross the threshold, where you see a mosaic created specifically for this flat. The mosaic was created using larger-format tiles, and its presence is a loose reference to Lodz neoplasticism. The geometric shapes, linear divisions and colour scheme speak directly to this. This pattern flows seamlessly towards the interior, running through the corridor, peeking into the bathroom, entering the kitchen and determining the interior aesthetic.
When designing the flat, the architect separated the various zones with walls. However, these are not partition walls, but partitions that frame the view instead of blocking it. Their transparency allows light to flow freely, making the interior luminous. A bookcase in the middle of the living room defines the axis of communication and at the same time covers the entrance to the bathroom which contributes to the sense of privacy. The bedroom is located behind a glass wall with sliding doors opening onto the living room.
The largest part is occupied by the living area. It consists of a living room and a dining room. The latter is decorated with a table by the Polish brand The Good Living & Co. and Formakami lamps (designed by Jaime Hayon) are suspended above it. The table corresponds with other furniture, such as the B3 Wassily armchair set in the living room (by M. Breuer). There is also Polish design – a table from noo.ma or a sofa designed by Maja Ganszyniec.
The architect carefully designed the kitchen area. The owner wanted the kitchen to be fully functional so that it could cope with numerous culinary challenges. At its heart is an ‘island’ that seems to levitate on geometrical and unevenly spaced legs. The furniture has an unusual appearance and, thanks to the rounded corners, looks more like a chest of drawers. The plasticity of this piece of furniture makes it look great from both the kitchen and living room sides.
In the bathroom, the designer has used colour division. The toilet part is somewhat hidden against the blue background. Interestingly, there is a urinal in the room. It is separated from the shower by a semi-transparent ‘screen’.
The owner of the flat in Łódź also wanted a comfortable place to work remotely. The desk is behind a glass door on the side of the bedroom and is part of a sequence of veneer fittings, which also includes a wardrobe.
