The investors wanted a minimalist, clean, subdued interior with a predominance of one color - black. Their dream was fulfilled by architect Katarzyna Arsenowicz.

Cozy minimalism

The study is part of a nearly three hundred square meter house. The architect divided this impressive space into two parts — the living and the private area. This was one of the expectations of the investors. What was another one? They wanted the interiors to be dominated by dark colors and not be overloaded with equipment. Only the most necessary furniture as few ornaments and decorative details as possible.

- I like decisive clients. Their sense of aesthetics was very inspiring for me when working on the design of individual rooms — says Katarzyna Arsenowicz.

Elegant black

Lined with dark veneer, the sliding wall is a movable boundary between the living room and the study . The workspace, like the entire house, is minimalist. The main element of the arrangement is a desk in the form of a large veneered block. The monolithic piece of furniture is plain at the front, however, at the back it hides many practical storage compartments and solutions for storing necessary electronic equipment such as a computer. Behind the desk, there is a cabinet of similar form. It is a place intended for documents and office accessories. Thanks to this, it is easy to maintain order and prevent clutter from disrupting the ascetic styling. Everything is highlighted by sophisticated lamps.

Play of textures

A separate bathroom is assigned to the study. Such a solution provides comfort, as it ensures that while working, the investor does not have to leave his home office area. The interior is dominated by black sinters. They were used, among other things, for lining the entrance door on the bathroom side. This is a clever trick, which makes one piece of equipment fit into two different arrangements and at the same time clearly marks the boundaries between rooms. There are also suspended dark oak cabinets and a simple mirror. The furniture top with the sink is made of elegant granite.
