Lozenets Apartment

The brief:
To design a living room with a workspace and an entrance hall in the apartment of a family with two children.

Our approach:
In a 1970s apartment, a very large living room with a chimney in the middle had to become the focal point of family life while also accommodating a small home office. The entrance hall, with its period-typical mosaic flooring, needed to be transformed into a warm and welcoming space with adequate storage.

We focused on flexibility. We designed a striking shelving unit with movable panels that allow the appearance of the furniture to change. Around the centrally positioned chimney, we organized a workspace with low storage furniture that also provides seating. We used natural wood and warm grey tones to create a visual connection with the existing parquet flooring.

In the entrance hall, we made use of all the niches to create as much storage space as possible. This helped neutralize the fragmented layout and made the space feel larger. We preserved the original mosaic floor and again used wood and warm grey to create a sense of continuity and warmth.

The result:
A cozy apartment where the family truly feels at home.
