Ultra compact and super comfortable studio apartment in minimalism style

Our article describes a studio apartment in the minimalism style, in which two sisters live, who have just entered an independent life. The specialists of the Taiwanese Folk Design studio were engaged in the design of its interior.

Asian simplicity is conveyed through an organic combination of wooden structures, living plants and white surfaces forming a multi-layered architectural structure. It is perfectly balanced in all respects, which provides unprecedented comfort to the inhabitants of the dwelling.

The idea of the developers was to arrange functional areas at various levels in order to maximize the efficient use of space, which was reflected in the design of places for sleeping, storing things and cooking. It is no exaggeration to say that we are facing the embodiment of a new concept of life in a big city.

The coffee table and ceramic tableware, which many are more accustomed to seeing in Scandinavian interiors, are quite organically combined with the Asian-minimalist environment.

The cooking area, with its clean lines, light colors and increased functionality due to cleverly arranged storage spaces, seems to us the epitome of simplicity and elegance. There is a suspicion that she is also very unpretentious in care.

Vertical fullness brings a touch of futurism to the interior. Meanwhile, the amazing ability to feel space and break it into components, demonstrated by the authors of the project, cannot but cause admiration.

The bathroom seems surprisingly spacious relative to the scale of the entire apartment.

The inclusion of modern decor items, such as this fashionable KIMU design lamp, which we see in the following photo, is another clever way to dilute the urban aesthetic in general very close to nature image.

A very smart approach to the design of compact dwellings is implemented here, isn’t it?

Elegant studio apartment in minimalism style

Specialists from the R3Architetti bureau present their next project, and this is a studio apartment in the minimalism style. Its compact dimensions determined the choice of the design method. However, the designers set a goal to maintain a balance between extreme brevity and coziness, and, as it seems to us, they have achieved it. A small Turin apartment has been transformed into an elegant space characterized by clean lines and a harmonious combination of colors and materials.

There is a distinct separation of public and private zones. The materials used for finishing the apartment are mostly not processed. They demonstrate their authentic texture, providing uniqueness to the interior. Polished and untreated concrete, glass and wood, light plaster and black metal frames are complemented by soft textures and exclusive decorative items.

The color scheme is also characterized by logic and balance: natural warm tones soften the snowy whiteness of the walls, gray shades borrowed from concrete surfaces emphasize the drama of dark elements. Cozy niches where the inhabitants of the apartment can read or just relax are arranged in different parts of the residential area. Designer lamps emphasize the impeccable style of the interior.

Simple, but bright, concise, but cozy, this space is a worthy example of modern Italian design. Do you agree?

The interior of an apartment for a young family

This small living space from the architects of the Marcante-Testa studio combines an incredible atmosphere of bohemian art, dark and sometimes even gloomy tones, as well as unique furniture elements and an intelligent zoning system.

A combination of classic furniture and unusual details

The house was built in the 30s of the last century, and the apartment just needed to get a fresh breath and a new look at things.

Attractive living room

The black perforated metal rack, designed by French designer Mathieu Metgot, is an artificial functional method through which artists have achieved a flexible and simple separation of open and closed spaces.

Thanks to the rotating and movable elements, the system offers a unique and modern approach to the harmonious placement of things in the interior.

Cozy modern bedroom

Interesting workplace

The color scheme and decoration look very bold and interesting due to the combination of muted beige tones of the walls, some shades of blue resin, olive furniture elements and clear white lamps.

Artistic details simply overwhelm the apartment, creating a harmonious combination with elegant modern furniture and light solutions for decorative elements.

Extraordinary artistic details

Comfortable modern kitchen

The work of French designers is the embodiment of light, but bold artistic ideas that will be an ideal solution for a newly-made family apartment. After all, living in an old house in a picturesque area of Paris in a modern elegant living space is the dream of almost every young person.

Apartment renovation project in Barcelona from Anna & Eugeni Bach Studio

Apartment renovation project – view after completion of work

What happened first

The designers needed to create a reconstruction project for an apartment of approximately 70 square meters. Initially, the windows of two rooms faced the street, the rest were facing the courtyard. This layout assumed many corridors, and some rooms did not receive sufficient lighting.

Design solution

When creating a new layout, the wishes of customers were taken into account: two rooms facing the street (bedrooms) were preserved, and the part of the house where the living room, kitchen, dining room and study were located was changed.

The bedrooms were left untouched, and it was decided to combine the rest of the rooms into a common space that includes all the functions that several rooms used to combine.

In the far part of the common room, the designers designed the kitchen, using unique furniture to organize it as a separate room, and the ceiling height allowed an additional space to be arranged above it, which can be used as a guest room or as a workplace.

A workplace is organized upstairs

The high ceiling makes the common room more “open” and spacious, from it you can get into all the other rooms. Its peculiarity emphasizes the fact that the kitchen does not occupy the entire space up to the ceiling in height.

Exit to the courtyard from the bedroom

A small bathroom immediately opposite the entrance to the house was left, but the designers changed the bathroom near the bedroom, again playing with heights. The floor level in it is higher than in the whole house, and an additional storage space is organized below. Even more free space is released due to the fact that the functions of the bathroom and shower are combined.
