PROJECTS TO BE PRESENTED DURING THE EVENT
Project #1: House CB
Start year: 08.01.2024
Our project, located in the Avalon complex in northern Bucharest, is characterized by its contemporary design and seamless integration into the natural surroundings, including green spaces and a nearby lake. Created for a family of four, the residence reflects their artistic and bohemian personality, offering a warm, welcoming atmosphere enhanced by natural materials and a neutral, bright color palette. The design strikes a balance between functionality and aesthetics, with influences from minimalist and Japandi styles. Thoughtful elements such as a solid wood dining table and a Curiosity-style library celebrate the family’s love for art and beauty. Large glazed surfaces bring in natural light and establish a direct connection to the garden, highlighting the homeowners’ favorite artworks. The ground floor is designed for daily family activities, featuring a contemporary kitchen, a cozy dining area, and a minimalist living room with access to the garden. Upstairs, the children’s room combines playful energy with functional design, while the master suite, inspired by Japanese aesthetics, provides a serene retreat. The closed loggia overlooking the garden serves as a peaceful space for relaxation and reflection. This residence is a harmonious blend of artistic elegance, thoughtful craftsmanship, and practical comfort, creating a space that reflects the family’s personality and lifestyle.
Project #2: AV10
Start year: 12.02.2024
The AV10 project is a blend of elegance and functionality within a spacious home located in a residential complex near Lake Pipera, in northern Bucharest. Surrounded by nature, the project reflects a balance between modern living and serene surroundings. The house spans three levels: the ground floor for daily activities, the upper floor for bedrooms, and an attic dedicated to work and hobbies. A minimalist design, with neutral tones and natural materials, creates a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. The open-plan ground floor features a stylish kitchen with a central island, a cozy dining area, and a double-height living room with large glazed surfaces connecting to the garden. The staircase area cleverly integrates a plant display, adding warmth and natural accents. Upstairs, the children’s room combines vibrant tones with functionality, while the master bedroom offers a serene retreat. The attic provides a refined workspace with dark neutral tones. In essence, the AV10 project exemplifies a contemporary, minimalist design that seamlessly blends elegance, comfort, and practicality.
Project #3: H97
Start year: 12.01.2024
The interior design project for the H97 residence was undertaken in a holistic manner, beginning with a detailed analysis of the house’s floor plan and the specific needs of the family. From the outset, the design process aimed to achieve a functional distribution of spaces across three levels: basement, ground floor, first floor, and attic, each with clearly defined purposes. The ground floor, designated as the day area, was designed to accommodate communal activities, both indoors and outdoors. This space, intended to encourage social interactions and moments of relaxation, is characterized by openness and functional flexibility, enhanced by the use of natural materials such as wood and stone. These materials contribute to creating a welcoming ambiance, where natural light is harnessed through warm textures and subtle reflections. On the first floor, the bedrooms are arranged to ensure the privacy and comfort necessary for rest areas. The design of this level focuses on creating an atmosphere of tranquility and relaxation, utilizing a warm color palette with accented infusions. The attic serves as a space for individual activities, integrating a workspace and a multifunctional hobby room. The latter functions both as a home gym and a small personal cinema. The attic, with its inherent flexibility, has been designed to stimulate creativity and provide a personal retreat without compromising the functionality of the space. The bathrooms, essential elements of the interior design, were conceived to maximize the infusion of natural light, thereby highlighting the design details. On the ground floor, black accents add a sophisticated and modern contrast, while on the first floor, golden accents contribute to creating an elegant atmosphere. Throughout the residence, the color green appears in various forms, whether through the velvet upholstery of the sofa or dining chairs, or through the remarkable decorative accents present in the lighting fixtures. The interior design of the residence was conceived with the idea of creating clean zones with the aim of offering a sense of space and openness. This minimalist approach not only facilitates the natural flow of spaces but also makes them adaptable to possible future changes, thereby providing the residence with enhanced flexibility in use. In conclusion, the entire interior design concept was focused on creating a warm and welcoming environment, accentuated by the use of light tones and carefully selected color infusions. These elements contribute to a balanced spatial experience where aesthetics and functionality harmoniously blend to meet the complex needs of a contemporary home.
