"Everything was reduced to the bare essentials: A storage unit underscores the entrance, while the sleeping area is closed off from the rest of the apartment by a soft curtain. The focal point of the apartment is a custom installation running along one wall of the living room, with different sections playing different functions."
"The materials (from resin to beech) and the color palette (with shades from pink to plum) unify the project, while the exposed structure organizes the different spaces while still existing as a through line."
"Instead of traditional partitions between rooms, a home can be divided using movable parts. In order to create a spacious living room, the principals of A Place to Be used a storage unit to define the entry to this apartment, and closed the bedroom off with lush curtains."
A residential renovation transformed an apartment by prioritizing open living areas and natural light through east-west exposure. The design reduces elements to essentials, using a storage unit at the entrance and a soft curtain to separate the sleeping area. The central feature is a custom wall installation serving multiple functions: a bookshelf for displaying design collections, a kitchen countertop with appliances and storage, and a dining seating area. Unified materials including resin and beech, combined with a cohesive color palette of pink and plum tones, create visual continuity. The exposed structure organizes different zones while maintaining spatial flow. The project employs movable partitions and flexible dividers instead of traditional walls to enhance the sense of spaciousness.
