Comfort In Privacy

Forty years ago, the world was definitely different. Europe had a completely different face. The cultural earthquake following the fall of the Iron Curtain would then bring irreversible changes. Today, Poland is home to some of the most avant-garde examples of interior design of our time, light years away from the restrictions the country and its people have experienced in the past. Geometry and industrial chic represent Poland’s style philosophy today, a vision that goes by the name of Eastern Industry.

Comfort and privacy

Privacy is the criterion adopted in furnishing this 120-square-meter apartment (and nearly 100-square-meter terrace) located in Warsaw, in the center of a large residential area. The goal was to reflect the private lives of its inhabitants while at the same time creating a spacious, never prying space in which to allow guests to relax.

Weronika Kotlarska, an interior designer trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, was tasked with finding this balance and creating a theme that would allow the host and guests to experience a sense of freedom and privacy under the banner of the Eastern Industry philosophy .

Design on display

The open space allows interaction with guests, promotes relaxation, and, importantly, showcases this style philosophy. Choosing Auto-Reverse by Giuseppe Viganò, one has not simply opted for an elegant piece of furniture: Auto-Reverse plays with form and style and shapes the environment one wishes to explore freely according to one’s ideological mindset.

An exploration that is then amplified through the colors and materials chosen for the room. Tuscan leather for the sofa and armchair, neutral colors for the curtains, track lighting, slate floors, and a mix of glass and wood to warm the room and create a sense of vastness in a small but airy space.
