Minsk, the capital of Bielorussia, is the background of a minimal restyling project by local studio ZROBYM Architects.

Renamed ‘Buddha Apartment’, this minimal house had a fixed structure that did not allow to redistribute spaces. However, the studio accepted the challenge and gave the owners a new flat with few simple elements that create a minimal and intimate atmosphere.

A dressing room was annexed to the bedroom and the two pre-existent bathrooms have been joined into one. The main changes, however, regarded the living area: one united space in minimal style partially divided by a partition. This element allows to separate the living room from the kitchen yet it doesn’t take up too much space and it still maintains a degree of connection between the two spaces.

The colour palette features white and grey tones that perfectly match the natural parquet and create an aura of elegance around the entire house.

The minimal furniture enhances the same chromatic choices. For example, the light grey corner sofa, the white curtains and the thin bookcase in the hall have been combined with sage-green decorations and blue-green geometric tiles that visually differentiate the kitchen from the rest.

The almost-ascetic minimal wooden decorations is completed by neon tubes on the walls and by an eclectic selection of contemporary art pieces.
