"The new flagship showroom of Ukrainian brand Gunia Project occupies the ground floor of a late-19th-century building on a historic street near the Golden Gate where old Kyiv once began. After three months of careful searching, the chosen space revealed both clear advantages and notable challenges."
"Its prime location in the heart of historic Kyiv and its well-proportioned size worked in its favor, while the lack of natural light and strict requirements imposed by the landlords posed significant constraints. For the building's owners, the interior forms part of their family history, and they insisted on preserving key elements."
Gunia Project's new flagship showroom occupies the ground floor of a late-19th-century building on a historic street near Kyiv's Golden Gate. The design team selected this prime location after three months of searching, recognizing its advantageous position in historic Kyiv despite significant constraints. The space lacks natural light and operates under strict landlord requirements. The building's owners, for whom the interior holds family significance, mandated preservation of key architectural elements including classic wooden doors, wall panels, decorative ceiling details, and monumental mahogany cabinets. The design solution navigates these preservation requirements while creating a functional contemporary showroom.
