We were asked to renovate a small apartment in the center of Athens.<\/p>\n

The apartment was old and the space was relatively small.<\/p>\n

With the owner\u2019s agreement, we decided to play with textures and patterns of coverings that refer to Japanese aesthetics.<\/p>\n

Initially, we chose a palette of earthy shapes and colors that give emphasis to the volume of the surfaces but mainly define clearly the need of separate functions in such a small space.<\/p>\n

In addition, we designed a multi-functional bookcase which would also play the role of a lighting fixture in the space as the semi-transparent membrane used to cover the square frames on its doors allows hidden lighting to diffuse into the space.<\/p>\n

Finally, the metal frame used in the opening between the kitchen and living room space, gives an additional sense of luxury and creates a modern aesthetic style.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
