The original layout of this apartment in the center of Prague included four rooms connected by a corridor. The kitchen was isolated from the living area, and the only bathroom opened into the hallway. First of all, the team of the Alepreda Architecture bureau reduced the area of the entrance area and divided the entire space into two symmetrical volumes: one housed the living room and kitchen, and the other – the master bedroom and the nursery.

The bright color palette is inspired by the colorful interiors of the Muller Villa – a masterpiece of the world avant-garde, designed by the Austrian architect Adolf Loos. Multi-colored horizontal lines create a special atmosphere in each room and at the same time connect the space into a single whole.

In an effort to pay homage to the history of the building, the architects restored the original herringbone parquet and wooden double doors. Also specifically for the project, the team has assembled an eclectic collection of vintage and modern items. The MiMi dining table, located in the kitchen, was designed by the bureau for the Miduny brand. The buffet in the living room is an original Czech design of the 1960s. The cabinets in the bathroom were designed according to an individual project and made by a local craftsman.
