The calm interior contrasts with the bustling city outside.

All the walls have been finished with clay – not smooth, but with beautiful roughness provoking to touch even when you look at the picture.

‘We appreciate the Wabi Sabi philosophy and saw imperfect things as beauty. This apartment shows natural irregularity and calmness, love for natural materials and shapes.’ – Serhii Makhno, founder of Ukrainian architectural workshop.
The owner travels a lot, especially because she loves Thailand and Sri Lanka. These countries tend to mix modernity with traditions, and we did the same in the interior. Despite quite natural and rustic feels, the apartment is equipped with hi-tech amenities that guarantee a comfortable life.
The area is 50 sq. m, and the main task was to create an open space broadened as possible.The bathroom was moved to the balcony, and lifted to a podium. In such a way the designers free the space for the wardrobe.
The owner travels a lot, especially because she loves Thailand and Sri Lanka. These countries tend to mix modernity with traditions, and we did the same in the interior. Despite quite natural and rustic feels, the apartment is equipped with hi-tech amenities that guarantee a comfortable life. It’s like a bungalow made of wood, clay, linen and all-natural. Handmade light is an important part of every MAKHNO Studio project. Wabi Sabi searches for simplicity and harmony with nature.
As a result, for the light, there were used simple unprocessed materials, and the main accent in the interior was put on textures. A bluish copper lamp resembles a flow, whilst a wooden flower lights up a zone over a dining table. The character of the home was formed by things. Unique, handmade, and entirely original because plenty of them MAKHNO Studio created by themselves. From the trio of lighted PARASOLKA near the bed to a ceramic bath and lighting KHMARA over it.
