Warsaw Apartment transforms with walnut burl and terrazzo fusion

Polish studio Mistovia breathes new life into a 1950s apartment in Warsaw's Praga Północ neighbourhood, crafting an exceptional fusion of textures and styles. This 45-square-metre dwelling, nestled within a mid-century estate designed by architects Jerzy Gieysztor and Jerzy Kumelowski, has been reinvented into a captivating space that marries walnut burl, terrazzo, and bold furnishings.


The interior renovation unfolds as an intricate puzzle of contrasting patterns, with each distinct "cube" within the apartment serving a specific purpose, further accentuated through veneer and colour. In the living area, a wall featuring swirly grey wood veneer, an homage to Ettore Sottsass' 1980s design, sets an artistic tone. The connection between the kitchen and lounge creates a fluid open-plan arrangement, juxtaposing distinctive pieces like the molten-looking Plopp stool and misshapen vase against floor-to-ceiling walnut-burl cabinets.


Terrazzo takes centre stage, forming chunky black-and-white legs for a breakfast bar and a striking burnt-orange dining table. Micro cement flooring and textured walls provide a versatile backdrop for geometric forms and bold patterns, capturing a balanced harmony of design elements.


The bathroom mirrors the apartment's flair, featuring glass-brick walls and monochrome tiles arranged in a grid pattern. A standout sink supported by cobalt-blue legs and a tortoiseshell cabinet crowned with a triptych mirror create an arresting visual composition.


The singular bedroom boasts a purple wardrobe that complements the rectilinear marble headboard, aligning harmoniously with the home's boxy geometry. This transformation embodies the artful juxtaposition of materials, colours, and shapes, culminating in a living space that is a testament to Mistovia's design prowess.


In a city that embraces innovative design, this apartment redesign stands as a testament to Warsaw's creative energy.
