A modern Warsaw loft

Posted on Mon, 19 Jun 2023 by midcenturyjo

“The apartment is located in Warsaw, in the Wola neighbourhood. The new plan required a major renovation and redevelopment project. The interior has been equipped with furniture and accessories designed by Loft Kolasiński, such as a library, dining table, wardrobe, bench with storage function, desk, coffee table, bed, and bedside tables, as well as kitchen, bathroom and office furniture. We also designed elements of steel joinery. In the project in Wola, we used a new technology of covering the fronts of the kitchen, bathroom and wardrobe furniture with the same plaster that we also covered the walls with. To equip the apartment, we have also collected unique furniture and lamps from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, which have undergone carpentry and upholstery renovation. Particularly noteworthy is the restored desk from Prague made to order in a single copy in the 1950s. Another unique object can be found in the study on the mezzanine-a grey armchair by Ivan Matusik, designed in the 1970s for the Kyjev hotel in Bratislava. To decorate the walls, we used photographs by Erwin Olaf, the duo Billy & Hells, and a painting by Apolonia Sokół.”

I love it when Loft Kolasiński share their work with us and this modern Warsaw loft is no exception. Clean, contemporary lines with carefully considered details.

It”s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Beverley Hills Spa by Jake Arnold.

Heidi Caillier never disappoints and is eager to embrace the history of a home and leave things like beautiful dark millwork untouched. And this is why I am her biggest fan. Along with her signature addition of slightly muted but always punchy colours and patterns strewn throughout this home gives off the coziest, effortlessly stylish, a wee bit European and timeless vibes.

Nine-Square Bondi

Posted on Thu, 15 Jun 2023 by midcenturyjo

“Tasked with creating an urban oasis on a small block in a densely populated area, connecting to the street and community while maintaining privacy for the residents was key. Nine-Square Bondi is a reflection of the client’s global and creative mindset, incorporating influences of time spent living in Hong Kong, their eclectic collection of art and love of Brazilian Brutalist houses. The core concept was to draw on their individuality but also to embrace and reflect the unique character of the Bondi Beach locality: casual, communal, colourful, imperfect and unadorned.”
