Creating a space that serves as both home and office, this office home apartment designed by Polish designers Maciej Kurkowski and Maciej Sutuła is super smart and stunningly designed.
Making sure those living in the space felt a separation between home life and work life via plywood panels, this geometric, Warsaw-based office home apartment is divided up into lounge space and work space.
The designers created this mixed-function haven in a heritage building for a company manager who wanted the freedom of having access to both at all times; glass doors are the gateway from the meeting room into the private spaces of the apartment.
"Considering the extreme flexibility expected from the office part, its space was designed to be as manageable as possible," say Kurkowski and Sutuła.
