A Seamless Blend of Old and New
The living room greets you with Josef Frank-patterned sofas set against the backdrop of antique floors, creating a vivid juxtaposition. As you transition to the heart of the home, the kitchen’s natural wood and white marble offer a modern counterpart to historic aesthetics. The open plan, achieved by eliminating dividing walls, creates a fluid expanse leading to the sunlit terrace.

The children’s room captures playful imagination without overshadowing the apartment’s theme.
