The interior was arranged in shades of timeless gray - from light gray to darker graphite. Such a color base is an ideal background for modern furnishings.
Blending in with the neighborhood
The apartment is located on the main routes of the historic Gdańsk Old Town, near Wyspa Spirzchów, Długi Targ and the famous Neptune. The building refers in its architecture to the historic buildings. The facade is finished with native, hand-formed brick. The red facades are rhythmically divided by glazing of large windows, which fantastically illuminate the space, and are decorated with delicate friezes in imitation of old rustications. Thanks to the fronts designed in this way, the estate discreetly and harmoniously fits into the historic fabric of the city - alluding with its finishing materials, for example, to the nearby 19th-century barracks.

Minimalist kitchen and dining room
The interior features a simple kitchenette. The upper, handleless cabinets made of light gray laminated board were contrasted with the graphite bottom. Here the fronts got comfortable handles in the form of minimalist undercuts, and the whole was covered with a dark conglomerate countertop. Right next to the built-in there is a simple black display case with fluted glass, where you can store any necessary dishes or crockery. The annex flows seamlessly into the dining area, which consists of a large dark table set with tea-colored upholstered chairs. A striking lamp hangs above the table.

Leisure in style
Light oak-colored vinyl panels were laid on the floors, and the walls were painted in a shade of light pearl gray. To keep the color scheme clean, the designers suggested keeping the number of shades to a minimum. The entire arrangement is based on timeless black and white. The central point of the lounge area is a large graphite sofa. It is complemented by an armchair in the same color. Right next to it are two round coffee tables. This part of the living room is marked by a simple light gray carpet. Opposite the lounge is a black low dresser. The piece of furniture has ornate gold handles. The top shelf was used as a place to expose an interesting vase and a painting kept in the same color scheme that prevails throughout the apartment.

Bedroom with an unusual wall
A distinctive element of the bedroom is the wall behind the bed. It was painted black and decorated with grooving all over the surface. The bed itself also has an interesting form. The headrest is also black, but thanks to its form that somewhat resembles a pillow, it does not blend into the wall. On either side of the furniture you will find bedside tables. They bring a touch of lightness to the arrangement of this space. Admittedly, their legs are black, while the tops introduce a white marble pattern, which is repeated on the small lamps set on them.

Bathroom with high-quality furnishings
The entire bathroom is kept in classic black. The uniform effect is broken by the use of tiles with different textures. Tiles with a delicate stone pattern are mixed with those with vertical fluting. The bright spots of the arrangement are white bathroom ceramics and an illuminated round mirror. The washing area features a wall-mounted washbasin made of a unique type of ceramic. Due to the fact that it is a very malleable material, it impresses with its interesting form and exceptionally thin rims. The model used here has gently rounded corners and a wide shelf for the faucet. On the other hand, in the quietly closing drawers there is plenty of space for cosmetics and bathroom accessories. This is thanks to a unique smart storage system. A simple recessed built-in bathtub made of warm and tactile acrylic has perfectly contoured comfortable back support. The bathroom also featured a minimalist shower. The suspended, streamlined toilet bowl features a free-fall seat and reduced water consumption and easy cleaning. Such a toilet levitating above the floor gives the impression of lightness, optically takes up less space, and makes the floot under it is easier to clean.
