A counter surrounds the open kitchen, and seating is arranged so that the chef and the guests meet at the same level while each dish is introduced. The material theme is raw, with concrete, steel, copper, glass and wood. A light sculptural cloud hovers above the kitchen, recalling a thought cloud drawn in comic books.

Unit City

IT Factory is an office interior created in a renovated industrial building in Kharkiv, Ukraine. The office covers 4500 square meters and operates at all hours, so working zones and resting zones are balanced. Existing concrete structures and metal knee braces were preserved and used as accents of the interior. A double-height space on the second floor adds working places while keeping room for rest. New ventilation, heating and air conditioning systems remain visible as part of the interior. Bright, measured colour accents avoid monotony.

Ethereal

Ethereal is a hair salon interior located in Taipei. The space covers 133 square meters. Wood is used as the main material, and its solid character is combined with surrounding textures. From a distance the interior looks like an installation artwork, while closer viewing reveals detailed craft work. Woodcraft elements and textures are rearranged to move away from the traditional image of a commercial hair salon. Curved and linear forms, ink-like gradations and natural scents create a calm atmosphere. The design is intended as an urban retreat where visitors can relax.
