How to design a dream living space? What are the most important things? What values to follow? I answer and suggest.
Designing a dream living space is a big challenge and an equally big responsibility. After all, the owners place great trust in us architects. They open to us not only the door to their home but also to their world. They show what they like and what they don’t accept, how they spend their free time after work and on their days off and what their passions and worries are. Sometimes from such cooperation arise not only fantastic interiors but also a beautiful friendships for years.
The most important task of the architect is to create a completely personalized design. He/she must meet the specific guidelines of the investors regarding the functional-spatial layout and aesthetics. This requires a fully individualized interior, in which every element will be made to measure. A good architect should perfectly sense the needs and expectations of investors, and then give them a real form. Show, propose, suggest an idea, sometimes try to convince to something, and sometimes strongly advise against something. It’s necessary to talk, discuss and look for the best, most interesting ideas, solutions, and products. Because only in this way will it be possible to create a unique space that meets all the expectations, needs, and dreams of the owners. A space that gives joy, arouses positive feelings, frees the senses, balances energy, and provides balance.
A thoroughly personalized project should always meet both investors’ high expectations in terms of aesthetics and interior function. It cannot be otherwise. It is important to capture the preferred style, a sense of luxury and elegance, care in the selection of the noblest materials, and forms taken from nature, and combine all these elements into a harmonious, arrangement whole. How we live, and what we surround ourselves with have a huge impact on us, and on our well-being. My mission is precisely to create spaces that regenerate and make transformations for human well-being.
Unlike architecture which focuses solely on form, function, and comfort, I influence a person’s inner self by providing conditions for the exchange of energy at the sensory, emotional, spiritual, and physical levels. I create a symbiotic space inspired by EnrichSpace nature. A space that regenerates and creates well-being is understood as a subjective sense of happiness and satisfaction with life. The space allows us to experience magical moments, reaching our inner child, who is naturally able to release joy and laughter.
The architecture provokes playfulness, inviting us to constantly savor, stop and delight. It creates natural conditions for building relationships and staying together.
Beauty and aesthetics are a properties of EnrichSpace resulting from the use of proportion, harmony, colors, materials, structures, moderation, and utility perceived by the senses. They strongly influence feelings of happiness and well-being. They evoke positive emotions such as peace and contentment. EnrichSpace improves the quality of life by using beautiful objects in the environment as well as creating an environment for living in visually appealing spaces. A space designed gives a man the opportunity to symbiosis with the environment in which we live. I create solutions that nature itself initiated. The contemplative dimension of greenery regenerates a man regardless of his/her consciousness and will, it is enough that he / she stays in it. I will try to give you a little insight into the subject. I will describe what characterizes a luxuriously designed space.
A luxury interior is an interior that is timeless, elegant, sophisticated, and decorated with thought and good taste. One that inspires, that stimulates the imagination, that delights with harmony. This is a tailor-made space, unique, unrepeatable, where everything has been perfectly planned and composed. Nothing here is a work of chance. And finally, it’s an interior for years to come, which will survive the changing trends, providing comfort and aesthetics at the highest level for each household member.
Having designed architecture and interiors for over 20 years, I have seen qualitative changes in the style and design of luxury interiors. Each generation has its idea of luxury. From interiors that focus on visual impact, exclusive furnishings, and a Hollywood-style final impression, to luxury interiors that are classic and subtle in their expression.
Luxury interiors are very often the domain of apartments or houses of large size, bright, full of light, with huge glazing and a fantastic view of the city skyline, green areas, or a beautiful garden. Decorated, as I mentioned, literally in any style! They will look fantastic in a simple, modern version, but also in a stylish, classic arrangement, or in a full glow evocative of glamour decor. Nothing prevents you from taking the best of each style and combining selected elements, patterns, and textures into beautiful, impressive, highly original compositions. Such a mix is most advisable, provided, however, that appropriate decorative moderation is maintained.
Luxuriously decorated spaces are dominated by subdued, classic colors such as white, gray, and beige diluted by dark accents whether in the form of black, navy blue, bottle green, brown, or a drop of gold, silver, or copper. At the same time, there is no place for cheap fakes or any, even the best imitations. In a luxury living room or kitchen, natural, good-quality materials such as wood, sinters, and stone in the form of cool, finely vascularised, or branched marbles, flaming onyx or elegant granite rule. Most of the furniture is custom-made from top-quality materials with attention to detail and the best design. The design of luxury furniture can be complemented with inserts of precious materials like leather, velvet, silk, or marble. Handmade details are sophisticated and have a unique charm.
High-quality furniture and materials are perfectly complemented by mirror compositions, mosaics that are interesting graphic accents from the border of art, graphics, paintings, or cladding with inserts of decorative metal slats. They introduce color accents, enliven the entire space and provide an interesting play of perspective, and sometimes even transfer to another world.
The calling card of an exclusive interior is also lighting. Preferably elegant, from well-known brands and famous designers. And preferably one that has more than one source, so that you can adjust it to your needs and many different situations. Led lighting hidden in recesses in suspended ceilings, backlit milky barrios (i.e. matte white), or three-dimensional wall structures. Lighting is supposed to accentuate and highlight architectural details and exclusive interior design.
But it is also supposed to decorate. So you may be tempted to invite into the living room gold lamps of simple form, crystal chandeliers that dazzle with their brilliance or gems, design classics.
A few years ago I realized that there is currently what I would call a new dimension of luxury. The luxury in architecture that people need today is no longer just a visual effect. It’s the kind of experience of the closest space that allows you to breathe harder, to relax, to sink into your privacy. This is the role of EnrichSpace. Designed space in the EnrichSpace concept creates an opportunity for a man to symbiosis with his / her environment. It influences the building of his / her inner power. EnrichSpace creates the truth of feeling, the truth of experiencing because forms inspired by nature are objective beauty that is not being disputed.
Interiors designed according to the EnrichSpace concept are also a response to the growing demand appearing in the luxury real estate market. Why? Because they are stable and resistant to the turbulence of the economy. They also translate into extensive monetization opportunities. The investment is calculated for long-term profit and therefore retains growth potential all the time.
