boq architekti designed the new House for Dorothy located in Prague, who had actually joined the project during the later stages of construction to finish the interior design. It is home to a family and the interior is led by concrete and wood as the main materials.
The space is then adorned with playful accents throughout starting with the main floor as the open living space is bright and well-lit due to the surrounding windows and large sliding glass doors. The color palette features neutral tones including white and anthracite grey that is complemented by natural wood. Additionally, the central living room is also detailed with white bookcases that are also functioning as the framing structures of the staircase with space in the middle for a projection screen.
