Kaip ir pro langus atsiveriančiame Botanikos sode, taip ir viduje, - nekuriami barjerai, nestatomos sienos. Čia kuriamos šviesios erdvės, mezgančios kontaktus tarp gyventojų. Visoms reikalingoms funkcijoms atskirti tarnauja transformuojami baldai ir technika, bet ne mūras.
Nepelnytai dažnai vonios erdvei priskiriami tik utilitari funkcija. Nors gyvenimas čia verda tiek pat, kiek ir bet kurioje kitoje namų erdvėje: rytais gaivus vanduo mus budinai naujai dienai ir nuplauna visus dienos rūpesčius prieš miegą.
Botanikos apartamentuose vonia susilieja su gyvenamosiomis erdvėmis per 3 metrų aukščio langą, taip įsileisdama vidun rytinę saulės šviesą. Stiklas yra padengtas elektromagnetine plėvele, kuri gavusi elektros impulsą visiškai praranda savo skaidrumą. Tad prireikus šiek tiek privatumo - paspausk mygtuką - langas apsitrauks rūku.
Kūno mankšta ir proto lavinimas - neatsiejami dalykai. Kaip ir jų erdvės, įkurdintos erkeryje ir paremtos santvara. 
Per kosmetinio staliuko veidrodinius atspindžius darbo erdvė susilieja su miegamuoju, kurio grindys lengvai kilstelėtos knygai. Sukūrus papildomą lengvą konstrukciją antrame aukšte, bet kada atsiras vietos dar vienam gyventojui. 
Virtuvė už šaldytuvo durų chameleoniškai slepia skalbyklos ir svečių san.mazgą bei susiniveliuoja bendroje svetainės erdvėje. O prireikus - visiškai užmaskuojama nusileidus ekranui. Tuomet metas kinui.

The interior reflects the Botanical gardens outside with the wide windows serving to bring the two spaces together - not the masonry, but the transformable furniture and technology create light open spaces that allow residents to connect with each other.
The bathroom undeservedly often is treated as just a space for utility. Although people live here as often as in the living spaces: fresh water awakens in the mornings and wash away all our tiredness in the evening. 
Botanical apartments’ bathroom blends with the living spaces while taking the shower through over 3 metres height window by giving inside sunlight. The glass is coated with electromagnetic film, which receives electric impulse and completely becomes matte. So if necessary of privacy, just push the button - the window will cover by fog.
Mind and body exercises are going hand in hand - the same as do their spaces, settled in the bay window and upheld by the pull up bar truss. By the reflection on the dressing table's mirror, the working spaces is merging with bedroom, which flooring offers a perfect dias for a book.
Behind the secret kitchen doors, which blends in to the living room, washing room and the guest bathroom has been hidden. Whole kitchen could be completely distinguished by the unfolding screen with the click of button. Then The Cinema begins.






"I was walking down the road with two friends when the sun set; suddenly, the sky turned as red as blood. I stopped and leaned against the fence, feeling unspeakably tired. Tongues of fire and blood stretched over the bluish black fjord. My friends went on walking, while I lagged behind, shivering with fear. Then I heard the enormous infinite scream of nature."
