When a comparatively new house needs to be given a facelift to make it more habitable, it always makes me think of the importance of the initial interior design even before the final plans are born in the architects's head. In this case almost the entire ground floor area was opened up to create a bright, bold, colourful and exciting living-dining-library-study area - in two levels.

Circled up - Glass Bricks (KAAT)
The high ceilinged, old flat is in a very popular residental area where the owner opted for a complete renovation instead of trying to find a new place. The two large rooms that face the street had been left almost intact but for the installation of a fireplace. The rooms that face the courtyard had been entirely re-proportioned and a new, large kitchen-dining-reception area emerged and the bathroom was enlarged as well.

Victorian with a Twist (CPCS)
Declaredly colourful interiors of a newly built red brick two-storey, Victorian-style house. The spacious living-room is the heart of the house where all the other rooms are branching from. Complete with a separate study, a vaulted corridor and a library on the first floor, the house is large enough for two generations to live in.

Studio flat in White (PJKA)
This tiny studio flat is in the heart of the city, and remained as a project due to substantial changes in the owner's circumstances. Still, it serves as an example where everything one might need within such a small space could be fitted in.

Mineral Matter (OGKO)
The living-room, kitchen and dinig area of this residential home had been given a thorough facelift that reflects the sign of times: the lady's love for minerals and the expanding collection of paintings that needed their own well-deserved space.
