ABOUT PROJECT

A luxurious space inspired by light and picturesque landscapes of an ancient city gives a feeling of exceptional coziness and comfort. To create a luxury home, we have combined a noble architectural building and modern convenience into a premium design.
IDEA

A particular feature of this fine penthouse was a natural play of light created by terraces that gave this space bright decorative effects. The open space interior successfully mixes interesting design techniques and modern styles.
DESIGN

Nothing here distracts you from the most important thing which is panoramic cityscapes that can be seen from the two terraces. The light at dawn fills the apartment with romantic inspiration of a new day while golden sundowns intertwine the light, caressing the decor textures and decor items. 
We used the same color for the walls and the same type of floor throughout the space in order to not distract from a wonderful play of light in the interior and the picturesque landscapes. Minimalism aesthetics with natural materials such as wood, marble, metal and open brickwork were the core of the project. It confronts well the monotony of monochromatic surfaces and over the years look even more attractive. Coziness and lightness are complemented by a hanging fireplace. Relaxing beside it creates a feeling of exclusivity . The owners of the apartment are true admirers of the arts, so the decor is represented by vivid art objects that satisfy one’s aesthetic imagination.
The overhead fireplace adds up to the concept of light space. The central object of the room is the flexible form of the wall which hides the hamam, guest room, and a closet. ​​​​​​​
The kitchen zone is full of laconic design items, multifunctional island and a separate traditional table. Build-in furniture and equipment take care of the visual order and add up the contemporaneity, all of it is in the best traditions of minimalism. The dining room flows into the living room, and special lamps in the central part of the apartment provide the uniform illumination of all the zones. There are so many windows in the bedroom that the owners can enjoy sunrises in the early mornings and sunsets in the evenings. It is especially pleasing to do while relaxing in the bath which is, by the way, located in the same room next to the window.​​​​​​​
