The idea for the interior was born during the designer’s very first visit to the residential complex where the house is located. Inspired by the clean, modern architecture and the surprisingly calm atmosphere — like a small oasis among the concrete jungle of the city — she envisioned an interior that would naturally extend that feeling indoors.
