[see full project presentation]

proj.: Klaudia Wawrzyńczyk
Faculty of Interior Design at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw.

The theme of the master's thesis, to go beyond the canons of contemporary interior design diplomas, is to create a concept of virtual scenography. The foundations of the project were to become two fields that are different from each other - technology and art. It might have seemed that they would not be able to penetrate each other and blur their boundaries. However, modern times have shown that new tools can be used to create.

Generation XYZ. Architecture of Change
[see full project presentation].

proj.: Zuzanna Denysiuk
Faculty of Interior Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk.

As part of my bachelor's thesis, I am designing the attic of a building at 14 Wałowy Square in Gdańsk. Due to the current state of the building, I took the liberty of interfering with its structure, without disturbing the beautiful historic facade. In order to illuminate the space in question, I raised the roof of the building, and filled in the gaps with glazing that illuminates the interior while contrasting with the body of the building.

The main assumption while working on the project of revitalizing the building of the former Wroclaw-Strachocin airport and transforming it into a model of a General Aviation airport was to create a luxurious oasis of calm.

Chapel of Solitude
[see full project presentation].

proj.: Malwina Nowak
Faculty of Interior Design at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow.

The Chapel of Solitude was created as a response to the lack of solitude. It is a place without religious or environmental markers. It is a space where each of us can appreciate the hitherto insignificant and unnoticed things, focus on the present, soothe our nerves and find refuge.

Crucible of Art on Lake Rożnowskie
[see full project presentation].

proj.: Aneta Burzec
Faculty of Interior Design at Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow.

The subject of my diploma is the adaptation of an existing, abandoned building into the Art Crucible. The history of its creation dates back to the late 1970s. It was intended to serve as a holiday resort. The building is located in a unique yet respectable environment. I thought for a long time how to aptly use this potential. I wanted to design a needed place that would bring "new life" here, where you can come for a while or stay for a longer period of time and create.

[see full project presentation].

proj.: Lukasz Dudzik
National Eastern European University, Institute of Humanities and Arts

The modern definition of a museum combines not only cataloged collections of artifacts, but also artistic activities, historical areas, science centers, natural regions or individual objects around which the museum narrative is built.

[see full project presentation].

proj.: Marta Kalucka
Faculty of Design Arts, Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź

Despite the many already existing similar premises, this author's concept stands out for its gentler approach to the user, giving him the opportunity to use the "office" without leaving the building where he resides.

Permanent Home. Permanent Family. Adaptation of a mill to house an adoptive family in the village of Kula-Mill
[see full project presentation].

proj.: Weronika Kuzma
Faculty of Architecture and Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk.

The whole is more than the sum of the parts - a family is more than a kinship of people, and a house is more than a building. The concept tries to respond in the best way to the raised problem of parental deprivation of children. The project tries to prove that architecture can, in a sense, "heal", blur differences, unite and divide.

History of music - Silesian context. Project of educational and promotional exhibition
[see full project presentation].

proj.: Ewelina Mamet
Department of Fine Arts and Design, Faculty of Architecture, Silesian University of Technology.

The idea to create an exhibition depicting the history of music was born from the desire to show the matter presented often in the context of the era, composer or instruments. The viewer's attention can then be drawn away from the emotional aspect of music. This project refers to its ephemeral dimension, giving viewers space to feel it.

EL Gallery - space liberated
[see full project presentation].

proj.: Weronika Mach
Faculty of Interior Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk.

The graduation project involves the interior of the EL Gallery in Elblag. I consider the most important goal to be the creation of a new space with an exhibition function in place of the existing establishment. The history of the building is extremely important to me, so the designed exhibition empora is a lightweight structure suspended from the technical platforms, not interfering with the structure of the building.

On the first floor and the second floor, a cafeteria with facilities, a reception area, a checkroom, a travel office, an administrative and social room, toilets and spaces of a cognitive nature were designed. The interior design was inspired by the Moroccan city of Shafshawan and the black beach of Reynisfjara in Iceland.

[see full project presentation]

proj.: Dominika Nikiel
Faculty of Interior Design at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow.

Café Jazzclub in Bielsko-Biala is known to everyone as Gallery Wzgórze, because it is located on Wzgórze Street, and its walls are decorated with dozens of wonderful paintings. Established in 1987, the gallery was born out of the owner's passion for music and art. Thanks to him, it has been a meeting place for many generations of artists. Despite its popularity and rich history, its spaces still hide a lot of untapped potential.

proj.: Philipp Pietryja

[see full project presentation].

proj.: Izabela Rajnfus
Faculty of Interior Design at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow.

Krakowskie Podgórze is a neighborhood that has been undergoing strong transformations recently.

It seems that a certain exchange of the neighborhood's residents is moving toward a search for their own identity as a cohesive neighborhood group.

Faculty of Interior Design at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw.

Dream in Architecture. Space towards aspects of everyday life
[see full project presentation].

proj.: Martyna Komkowska
Faculty of Architecture and Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk.

An in-depth analysis of the issue of sleep helped me formulate the question of whether the quality of sleep can depend on the space in which this process takes place - space understood both in the context of architecture itself and the urban space in which this architecture is located. This has to do with the modern lifestyle of residents of large cities, where, it seems, free time and rest are the privilege of only a few.

"Helios" transparent rotating furniture, multifunctional
[see full project presentation].

proj.: Małgorzata Tuszyńska
Faculty of Fine Arts, Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń

The design of the transparent rotating multifunctional furniture was created in accordance with the conceptual art, because the idea has always been very important to me. The name comes from the heliocentric theory, where ἡλιος (hēlios), means the sun, and κέντρον (kentron) means the center. The "Helios" furniture consists of two frames intersecting at right angles, forming a "cross-shaped" form.
