Open layout with vibrant harmonious combination

The center of the apartment features a bright and spacious living room, achieved by removing partitions between corridor, kitchen, and living area. The unified zone is perfect for hosting guests or family relaxation. The kitchen, clad in white porcelain stone Rex, is equipped with floor-to-ceiling kitchen furniture with built-in handles to maintain a minimalist look. White appliances, countertops and dining furniture create contrast and harmony in the space.

The curved sofa becomes a sculptural centerpiece of the living room, aligned with both the dining table and the TV, facilitating seamless interaction from all sides. Vibrant textures and geometric lines add character without overloading the clean architectural lines.

Enhanced functionality in daily areas

Laundry room

Originally 2.9 m², the laundry room was expanded to 6.9 m², significantly improving usability. A tall wall cabinet houses the washing machine and dryer, while open shelves and a hidden water heater ensure convenient storage without clutter. Moving the door increased privacy and better separated the laundry room from the corridor.
