We transformed a former office into a modern live-work apartment. From the beginning, the vision stayed clear. The clients wanted a bold and functional home. Moreover, both clients work as graphic designers. Therefore, they chose a contemporary industrial style. At the same time, they asked for natural materials and a dark color palette.

Because of this, we redesigned the entire layout. First, we converted the small office restroom into a spacious bathroom with a shower. Next, we added a compact kitchen with a refrigerator, dishwasher, and small hob. Meanwhile, we separated the living and working zones from the hallway. For this reason, we designed a dark partition wall with a concealed door.

To strengthen the industrial character, we introduced bold design elements throughout the interior. For example, we added perforated metal to the ceiling profiles. At the same time, we finished the bedroom walls and the wall behind the work desks with raw concrete coating. Likewise, we created custom clothes racks from iron pipes. In addition, we installed perforated iron sheets as flexible organizational boards.

Previously, the space featured Armstrong ceilings however, we removed them to expose the structure. As a result, the supporting profiles now remain visible and painted black. Ultimately, these elements define the raw, expressive industrial atmosphere and complete the transformation.
