Flat in town center Benesov ... with rounded corners
“Our collaboration with Michal went like a dream. Right from the start, he perfectly understood our taste and delivered a design that fit both our budget and the layout of the space. We approved the very first sketch and gladly relied on his advice when choosing flooring and bathroom finishes from the available standards—we truly believe the result couldn’t have turned out better. He beautifully worked with the playful language of rounded corners, so characteristic of First Republic–era furniture, and for our entire family, coming home is now a real joy.”
We joined the interior design process at a point when the main structural work on the house renovation was already in progress. Our role was to fine-tune the project by suggesting small construction changes and defining the final look of the bathroom. The key goal was to use the space as smartly as possible—so it feels comfortable and easy to move around in, while also offering plenty of practical storage for everyday living.
The material palette of the apartment is based on simplicity and restraint. An oak floor laid in a modern herringbone pattern sets the foundation, complemented by oak veneer on the lower parts of the built-in cabinetry and clean white finishes above. Subtle color accents are then layered in through the kitchen worktop, selected furnishings, and lighting details, adding character without overwhelming the space.”
One of the apartment’s most distinctive details is the presence of softly rounded corners in the built-in furniture. This subtle design gesture adds warmth and authenticity, softening the overall look and making the interior feel naturally inviting.
