Muted colours and natural materials give this flat by Decoroom a contemporary yet cosy feel. Subtle Christmas decorations complement the interior's existing palette. The flat was photographed by Marta Behling of Pion Poziom.
A quiet home with seasonal details
The client wanted a peaceful retreat within the city, somewhere to escape noise and sensory overload. References to nature provided the starting point for the design. These took the form of an earthy palette, simple shapes and a contemporary style.
“I wanted to create a space where natural materials and muted colours establish a sense of calm. Every built-in element, colour and material was chosen to create a timeless space that would remain practical and comfortable for years. The subtle Christmas styling simply emphasises the character of the interior: elegant, harmonious and conducive to winding down every day,” says the project's co-designer, interior architect Karolina Siczek.
Taupe joinery and a festive dining table
An open-plan living room, dining area and kitchen form the centre of the flat. Bespoke kitchen cabinets made in Decoroom's joinery workshop are finished in muted taupe and olive, complementing the natural veining of the stone worktop and splashback. Minimal fronts, concealed handles and LED lighting bring these elements together in an elegant composition.
A dining table at the centre of the living area is covered with a cloth in a fashionable dark chocolate shade, providing an elegant base for the Christmas setting. Decorations in green, gold and deep red suit the room's character. Green-and-cream striped fabric napkins, tall candles, bottle-green glass goblets and natural branches bearing berries form a light, atmospheric display. The understated, elegant styling sits comfortably with the everyday interior.
A soft, pale-grey corner sofa completes the seating area. Alongside its contemporary elements, the flat includes references to more traditional interiors. These take the form of herringbone timber flooring and Porta doors with elegant mouldings.
A bedroom in beige and terracotta
The bedroom has a classical character. Subtle wall mouldings and the herringbone floor give it an elegant finish. An upholstered bed in muted terracotta contrasts with the calm beige wall, while minimalist bespoke storage occupies another wall. Decorations gently introduce the anticipation of Christmas.
Pale stone and black bathroom fittings
The bathroom combines a practical layout with refined simplicity. Pale colours create a warm, soothing atmosphere, while bespoke joinery provides both visual continuity and sufficient storage. The focal point is a basin set on a decorative stone counter with pronounced veining. Black taps and a minimalist walk-in shower enclosure provide a counterpoint to the natural palette. The room has the feel of a private spa, somewhere to unwind after a busy day.
