Variation Of Wood In HM Apartment

Wood has always been considered a popular material in interior designs, whether classic or modern. Wood materials bring elegance and warmth to any space where it is present, contributing to bring people closer to nature. And wooden floor, bookshelf, table, chair, etc. have given HM Apartment below a quiet and peaceful feeling pleasing all family members.

HM Apartment is a 100sqm apartment designed by APDI Architecture including a living room connecting to the dining room, a kitchen with partition next to the balcony and three bedrooms. To better suit the needs of a couple with two small children, the architect changed the ratio between the function rooms to optimize the living space and bring a personal living experience.

The living room area with the kitchen partition is removed to bring a more spacious and airy space. In this view, you can see a lot of indoor furniture made of wood such as wooden floors, wooden dining tables, wooden chairs, wooden bookshelves, and wooden kitchen cabinets.

Even the bench at the dining table incorporates wood into the cushion.

In addition to optimizing the living space, the architect also brought into HM Apartment the interior design with a personalised mark for this project. The highlight of the apartment is the wooden wall cabinet system combined with a children’s bedroom partition. The cabinet system has a 30 – cm thickness with a structure of interlocking solid – hollow cells. In the interior of the children’s bedroom, empty cells are designed in places that are easy for children to reach. In contrast, outside the hallway, the solid cells in the children’s bedrooms become bookshelves and common areas for the whole family.

Inside and outside are convenient wooden cabinet partitions.

On the outside, a wooden partition is designed as a TV rack in the living room.

The bedroom hallway with wooden cabinets becomes a typical design point of the apartment. Looking at the kitchen area, you can see wooden bars used to cover edges of the kitchen island.

The design of wooden stairs combined with bunk beds brings an interesting life experience for children.

The smart design of wooden partition cabinets brings 3 functional benefits: the partition between rooms, the storage cabinet, and the aesthetic mark for interior design.

In addition to the convenient wooden cabinets, other storage spaces in home are designed to be full wall cabinets to optimize the area. The apartment is always in a bright and neat state thanks to the use of two main tones of white and brown wood. Besides, the neutral color in some concrete walls becomes the personality highlight of the apartment.

Lovely bathroom but no less personality. A wooden curtain helps prevent light when needed.

Next to the living room and kitchen is a small balcony. This area is paved with wooden planks combined with gravels to “turn” the monotonous balcony into a small garden with different potted plants.
