APARTMENT IN CHALANDRI

SAMOU, CHALANDRI

An old sectored apartment gained a new shape, the most generous that the structure allows. Starting from a program defined by the property that required two bedrooms and a small office, we opted for a simple strategy: to compact the service spaces and the bedrooms to free up space in the common areas. The distribution of the apartment is modified, some walls were thus demolished, relocating the living room, and making it part of the new kitchen-dining room. The integration between the living room and the kitchen and the improvement of ventilation and lighting in those environments were the guidelines for this project. Light tones and clear lines predominate in the design, in order to provide as much light as possible. The furniture pieces have been picked in grey and black color, enhancing the natural wood flooring. The dark grey and white kitchen cabinets in combination with the light grey kitchen countertop and the black door handles fit this apartment perfectly. Taking inspiration from traditional London Underground tiles, Metro tiles have a timeless appeal, adding a contemporary finish to the bathroom.
