The interior was filled with an atmosphere of secluded boutique hotels: a separate bath, dark walls, upholstered furniture and absolute autonomy
In the attic, a private retreat for two has taken shape — complete with a ruby bathtub as the centerpiece, a home theater for cozy evenings, and an atmosphere reminiscent of a luxury suite on the shores of the Indian Ocean.
To preserve a sense of intimacy while maintaining a feeling of openness, the space was divided into functional zones. One of them is the living area, featuring a sofa facing a hidden projector screen. Here, you can watch films and listen to music — a system with five ceiling speakers and a subwoofer creates a fully immersive experience. The bedroom zone, with a wide bed and a softly upholstered frame, is located next to a freestanding red glass bathtub. The sunlight plays on its surface, casting lively patterns of light and shadow. The bathing area was built on a podium — a literal and visual stage for water rituals.
A key construction and finishing solution was the use of SyPly plywood, treated for fire and bio protection. It was used to cover the insulated walls, onto which slats and panels in natural ash veneer were later mounted. Thanks to its dimensional stability, strength, and moisture resistance, laminated SyPly plywood proved ideal as the base of the podium in the bathroom area. It provided an even foundation for gypsum fiber sheets, which in turn served as a base for tile installation.
Wood, metal, and textiles — these three materials defined the project’s aesthetic. The walls are finished with wood. Curved wall corners and slatted decor form wave-like contours, creating a sense of flow — as if the interior itself is breathing. Metallic panels in the bathroom offer contrast and a touch of boldness, while soft velour upholstery brings warmth and comfort. Furniture serves as a continuation of the architectural concept: stainless steel side tables, a “formless” modular orange sofa, and integrated storage built into structural columns. The tabletop between the columns is covered with metallic-effect adhesive film — a solution that’s both simple and striking. Everything here is functional, yet aesthetically considered.
The interior is free from clutter — only the essentials remain: natural soap, waffle towels, and a full-length mirror in the wardrobe area. The final touch is a sprig of viburnum from the owners’ garden in a low metal vase. This attic is no longer just a room — it is a world unto itself, a place for solitude or shared moments of joy.
