Jeżyce is one of the most interesting neighborhoods in Poznań, full of concept stores, cafes and urban bustle. The owners of this apartment have always been connected with it, so the decision to stay in the area was quite obvious. When an apartment of over 100 meters appeared in the developer's offer, they did not hesitate for a moment. Proximity to work, playgrounds and the Old Zoo proved to be an advantage. They approached the TYMA PROJECT studio at an early stage of the project, when tenant changes were still possible. This gave the architects time to work out the details and put the finishing touches on everything.

The leitmotif in the designed space was green, which appeared, among other things, on the walls highlighted with structural plaster. Some of the partition walls were abandoned to open the living room space to the kitchen and dining room. As a result, the southern sun pours in without restriction through the balcony and courtyard with historic plane trees. The interior features a lot of natural wood. Oak veneers in a specially selected sandy shade cover the walls and are a component of the built-ins. Also noteworthy is the floor in the form of brushed and beveled parquet, laid in a Hungarian herringbone pattern.

The character of the interior is built by soft lines and subtle curves, which give the space a lightness. In order to seamlessly connect the kitchen with the living area, the designers used expressive tiles laid in an arc. The motif, by the way, appears from the threshold, introducing a consistent rhythm to the whole apartment. The light, seeping in, is gently modeled by an openwork wooden wall and wide blinds in the windows.
The power of details
The interior speaks with solid design. Comfortable armchairs with beech bent backs are the flagship product of the domestic Famega, for which Poznan-based designers Pawlak and Stawarski received the German Design Award. The Tamo Design studio from Gdynia created bookcases and bedside tables that stand out in form. The furnishings in the entrance area were designed for maximum consistency and visual order. The apartment uses a door of the Polish brand MORIC, flush with the wall in oak veneer, which almost completely blends into the wooden cladding. Thanks to the concealed frame, the border between the wall and the door leaf becomes barely noticeable. This is a solution favored by MORIC, a brand known for its perfect finish and attention to carpentry details.

You can also find global brands such as the famous Aromas del Campo. After the installation of the chandelier, weighing almost 15 kilograms, made of opal glass and green marble, which took more than six months to arrive, it turned out that the effect was slightly different from what was planned. The contractor decided to slightly improve the design and placed the lampshade upside down. This impulse of creativity was fortunately quickly caught and the dining table is now well lit. The unique artwork in the children's room is a product of Maison Wallcoverings, South African artists who draw inspiration from the nature around them. The study and library were a dream come true for the master of the house. Here we have wood both on the ceiling, whose arrangement was quite a challenge, and in the form of spruce paneling painted in the color of the wall. The layout of the shelves and the division of the bookcase allowed us to hide the air conditioning while maintaining its full functionality.

Behind the successful realization is, above all, the owners' trust in the architects and coordination at every stage of finishing. For Agnieszka and Łukasz Tym, founders of TYMA PROJECT, this is another project in Jeżyce, but the first in a building built on the site of the former "Modena", one of the main clothing factories of the 1970s. The stylistics of modernist rounding of the block itself or the fluting on the facade have therefore found their echo in the design. The owners confirm that they have found their downtown asylum here.
