This studio apartment was created for a psychologist and coach whose life involves constant travel. The goal was to design a space that one can return to at any time — to exhale and truly feel at home.
It was important to preserve a sense of lightness, comfort, and fullness despite the compact size. The developer had already completed the basic finishes — painted walls, installed doors, and plumbing. We made minimal adjustments: relocated a few electrical outlets and refined the ventilation system to make the space more functional.
The neutral base is complemented by natural textures and warm accents. Special attention was given to the workspace for online sessions: the working corner is arranged so that one can go live at any time without losing the coziness and visual harmony of the interior.
The philosophy of ikigai — finding the intersection between calm, purpose, and simple joys — lies at the heart of this project. It’s a space about flexibility, stillness, and inner grounding, even when the world around is in motion.
One of the important elements of ikigai is the ability to remain resilient — especially in difficult moments, such as during tragedy. The ability to stay steady is essential, as the world around us becomes increasingly unpredictable and chaotic.
and we will get back to you.
