My assignment was for a newly purchased and somewhat neglected apartment in an authentic Bauhaus building on one of the most vibrant streets of the second district. By further transforming the apartment, I tried to create a warm, cheerful home that would give space to my client's passion for contemporary art and fine arts, but would remain "grounded" and restrained in its overall effect. The colors were inspired by paintings and graphics, pastels, the glaze of ceramics, and objects that had been carefully selected from vintage shops in Budapest over the years.

​

The orange Meblo lamp led to a Berber carpet, the mid-century dining table to the chest of drawers bought at Möbelkunst, and the Art Deco mini sculpture (with which our acquaintance began) brought steely, bluish colors into the apartment. I counterbalanced the green colour coming from outside, from the canopies of Millenáris Park, with the yellows of the walls.

 

By keeping the original coverings, but adding granite, chrome and marble elements, we evoked the 70s, without imposing a certain atmosphere on the apartment. The MDF frame of the individually designed furniture was covered with distressed versions of pop colours, and round shapes and rounded edges appear throughout the space. Wherever I could, I highlighted the original features, shapes and curves of the apartment.
