APARTMENT IN NEA SMYRNI

THRAKIS, NEA SMYRNI

We designed this small apartment in Nea Smyrni as a bright and open-plan space, with modern elements and traces of industrial style. We created an open space living room and we replaced the partition walls with long linear lights. The owner enjoys cooking, so having this in mind, the kitchen plays a key role to the design. The idea was making entertaining and socializing with friends and family more accessible while whipping up meals. Open kitchens are a great social place for everyone in the home to connect, even when you are not cooking. The kitchen blends with the rest of the central living area, with wood accents on the kitchen island countertop and dark-toned Metro tiles on the wall. It features all of the functional ingredients found in much larger cooking spaces like beautiful and practical lighting and prep spaces with easy access to appliances. The Escher-like geometric bathroom tiles which perfectly capture the playful patterns of the era, combined with pure concrete and wood create an effortlessly elegant bathroom which will stand the test of time.
