“Design, whose only role is to beautify the world, has no chance of survival,” says Paulina Czurak-Czapiewska, the owner of the Sopot-based architectural studio Ideograf, which has been creating premium projects since 2008. Under the careful guidance of the charismatic leader.

Inspired by the rebirth of ships that once sailed the oceans, this structure elevated on stilts captures the essence of navigation.
