A 19th century building in Prague restored by a developer became a blank canvas for the team at A1 Architects when they took on the design of the property's attic apartment. In the one-bedroom home, they looked to combine both modernist influences with the more traditional grandeur that surrounds the building, coming up with an open and airy concept that errs on the minimalist side ... and yet throws in (literal) curveballs like curved walls, cabin-like nooks, and material pairings you almost never see.
While the project focused on oft-overlooked details like handles, door knobs, and lamps (many of which were custom-made), the star of the design is a huge onyx marble circle that sits in the wall separating the bedroom and hallway, bringing an unexpected texture to an apartment that's already filled with surprises.
