Located in Seattle’s University District neighborhood, this five-story, thirty-unit apartment building relies on simple, economical design moves to elevate the living experience for the residents and set it apart from typical, efficient market-rate apartments. Leveraging a yin-yang visual aesthetic, the building makes the most out of a little.

This is what we design for. Uncompromising- dark means dark, with accent light. Luxury - expensive high-quality furniture and art objects in the interior. And clean- monolithic surfaces from and to. Plaster? The whole wall. Glass? The whole wall. Paint? One in the whole apartment. Style. When even cabinets became the subject of design.

Laconic interior reveals a person and his soul. It is a place where you expand your scale, dissolve your personality. Nothing distracts – there are only your thoughts, pleasant emotions and sensations with help of the change of light, shadow and the perception of different surfaces.

We designed this interior for a young man who is keen on modern culture and music. It was important to create a personalized interior for a homeowner where the art objects would perfectly fit in, as well as to find a place for a home office because the client plans to shoot videos on his Youtube channel.
