concept for transforming this studio in the socialist realistic tenement situated in centre of Warsaw derives from aesthetical translation of the city's most characteristic visual components.

Starting from omnipresent green covering post-war urban voids mixed with of béton brut of the socialist mass housing, naturally warm-coloured parquets and terazzo originaly still present in its interiors; through early capitalism transformation of the 90's, reflected in inclinations to pseudo-luxury of kitchy marble-like tiles, covering public underpasses and shopping malls; ending with hipster and glamour - all these sums up for the city's atmospherical portrait, a journey through time and visual epocs reflecting Warsaw in its whole.
