The brief

Floor plan of The Family Clubhouse

An American family wanted their holiday apartment on the Bulgarian coast to feel less like a second residence and more like the place where everyone naturally gathers: children playing freely, grandparents at ease and friends staying for long summer evenings.

I designed the rooms around the moments that give family life its rhythm: slow breakfasts, long dinners and movie nights under the stars. My work covered the concept, space planning, materials and furniture, custom pieces and visualisation.

The hall

A long corridor with a patterned ceiling, so even the way between rooms has its own character.
