Located on the border between Berlin Mitte and Kreuzberg, the apartment overlooks the historic courtyards of Zander&Palm with their soulful industrial brickwork. Bought as a dark and dusty attic within two years the space was transformed into a cosy and light-filled family dwelling with impressive ceiling heights. Kasia, Studio Bosko's founder, and her husband worked together with an engineering architect from the beginning to make sure the inner space, limited by the footprint of the underlying tenement house, was optimally adapted to their family life and aesthetic vision. A warm palette thanks to the presence of various types of wood (oak, teak, palisander, etc.) makes bright hues and textures pop through experimental treatment of timber and material mixes as well as curated art pieces. With two small kids and regular dinner parties, the couple needed the kitchen to be both practical and joyful. Lacquered in solid colours, the joinery is also oak timber - similarly to the cabinetry made for the bathrooms and the bedroom. After 2,5 years of developing, the interiors feel lived in and very liveable - which is what Studio Bosko aims for with every design project they take on.

The project has been featured in multiple online magazines, such as Ad Germany and printed as a cover story for &Living Magazine.
