This case showcases a retro‑style, whole‑house design. Let’s take a closer look with BOSNIE!
A long, custom‑made tall cabinet was installed in the entryway: a floor‑to‑ceiling unit on the left, adorned with wooden lattice panels, and a smoky‑green cabinet on the right, featuring two open shelves in the middle and at the base.
The living room’s TV wall features a recessed design, and within this space a full‑length storage cabinet was custom built, enhancing the area’s versatility and continuity.
Vertical blinds were chosen for the windows, complementing the extensive wooden lattice panels. As sunlight streams in, striped patterns of light and shadow shift across the interior with the sun’s path, creating an atmosphere where music and sunshine blend seamlessly at home.
Next to the dining table, a combination of a double‑height cabinet and a sideboard was installed: the former provides essential storage for the dining area, while the latter serves as a compact bar and a handy prep surface for light cooking. After work, the homeowner can unwind here with a few drinks—sometimes enjoying quiet solitude, sometimes gathering with others, but always basking in the warm glow of familiar lights.
The living and dining areas flow together, with a low‑back sofa that subtly defines the space while maintaining clean, streamlined lines. When not in use for meals, the dining area transforms into a versatile setting for reading, light work, or sipping tea and chatting.
A wall lamp was mounted on the dining room wall, with independent control. In cocktail‑hour mode, only this single fixture is lit, avoiding overhead illumination and fostering a relaxed, languid ambiance.
Both the walls and floors of the kitchen are clad in the same honed terrazzo tiles, lending the space a cohesive, minimalist look that softens its narrow, elongated feel, while the wood‑toned cabinetry brings a sense of warmth.
The two bedrooms at the far end of the hallway were combined into a master suite, accommodating a walk‑in closet and a three‑part bathroom, while also shortening the perceived length of the corridor. The master bedroom is painted a deep green, evoking the serene stillness of a forest and establishing a composed, slightly classical atmosphere.
The interplay of teak tones and dark emerald, paired with two matte white glass pendant lamps above the bed, creates a rhythmic, vintage aesthetic that unifies the space.
The bathroom adopts a three‑part layout, with the shower area featuring a retro mix of terrazzo tiles and small white bricks, and a recessed niche along the wall serving as storage. A slim shelf running parallel to the wall further enhances convenience and ease during bathing.
In the children’s room, a wicker bed ensures breathability and resilience, set against off‑white walls to create a truly restful retreat.
A vintage mini‑pendant light, paired with blush pink curtains and a wall painting, lends the corner a simple yet sweet charm.
The study is equipped with a tatami area and wardrobe storage, accommodating guests who stay temporarily. A nearly two-meter-long desk paired with a bookcase perfectly meets the homeowner’s needs for working from home.
A wall cabinet has been added at the foot of the tatami bed, while the headboard is designed with a built‑in shelf that doubles as a bedside table, ideal for placing lamps, books, and other items. The tabletop features a hinged cover that lifts open, providing hidden storage for pillows and bedding.
