Storage-Focused Functional Apartment Designs

Hrystia Kolasa Undertakes a Minimalist Approach

— January 10, 2019 — Art & Design
Taking into consideration the tendencies and preferences of modern living, Hrystia Kolasa creates a stylishly minimalist functional apartment. Located in Lviv, Ukraine, the dwelling boasts incredibly creative storage opportunities, clean and crisp aesthetics, as well as a compact yet roomy atmosphere.

Hrystia Kolasa focused on a white palette with the intention to bring "smaller details [...] into focus." Amid the monochromatic space, a stoic concrete wall is inserted as a space separator that adds an agreeable and stunning juxtaposition in the contemporary functional apartment.

As mentioned before, the storage spaces have a stylish and convenience-focused format. For example, the bedroom and the entrance hallway are separated by a minimalist partition that can also be "used as a wardrobe, accessible from either side."
Trend Themes
1. Minimalist Living - The trend toward a minimalist lifestyle presents an opportunity for designers to create functional living spaces with creative storage solutions.
2. Multipurpose Design - By combining design and function, multipurpose living spaces can make the most of small living areas and offer a more efficient lifestyle.
3. Innovative Storage Solutions - As more people seek compact living spaces, the demand for innovative storage solutions increases and creates opportunities for entrepreneurs in the storage industry to develop disruptive new products.
Industry Implications
1. Interior Design - The interior design industry can benefit by focusing on creating functional spaces with minimalism and creative storage solutions.
2. Real Estate Development - Real estate developers should consider the trend toward smaller living spaces and focus on developing properties that prioritize functional, multipurpose design and storage solutions.
