Author spaces that speak human language.
Our approach is human-centered design, where every decision is born from dialogue. We do not impose a style, we do not copy trends. We listen deeply, research, think and only then form a solution. Your space is unique and therefore we do not work according to a template. Each project is a response to your requests, lifestyle and future scenarios. We make informed decisions and explain why exactly, what is the benefit, and what we have foreseen. This saves your resources, time and nerves. We do not create pictures, but a holistic architectural logic, where everything works for your comfort, peace and harmony. You have partners, not just executors. We do not disappear after the project. We accompany, support, advise until the space becomes a full-fledged extension of you.
We create meanings, not just walls!
A concept
is not a form.
It's the idea
that drives the project!
OBJECT AUDIT
BEFORE INVESTING IN A SPACE, IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW FOR SURE WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. WE OFFER PROFESSIONAL CONSULTATION BEFORE STARTING THE PROJECT OR EVEN BEFORE SIGNING THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT. THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT THE OBJECT THROUGH THE PRISM OF ARCHITECTURAL AND LIFE POTENTIAL.
WHAT WE DO
We investigate whether the object really meets your needs. We analyze architectural and technical features. We identify possible risks and costs that are not discussed in the sales department. We offer transformation options if the object has potential.
FOR WHOM
For private clients who are planning to buy an apartment or house and want to be confident in their choice. For developers or investors who want to assess the potential of a property before launching a project. For foreign clients who are looking for a property remotely and need a reliable expert assessment.
SEQUENCE OF ACTIONS
Onsite or online analysis of the plan, photos, videos. Assessment of functional zoning: is it possible to “reinvent” the space? Analysis of ceiling heights, load-bearing structures, light, orientation, engineering. Identification of possible restrictions on redevelopment. Approximate estimate of the implementation budget. Specific design recommendations, what can be improved, what to add, what to avoid.
WHAT YOU GET
Professional opinion on the feasibility of the purchase. Visual understanding of the potential if you order a concept. Understanding the scope of future work and costs, an approximate project budget. The decision – to buy or look further.
CONCEPT
AT CITEK, THE CONCEPT IS NOT JUST A STYLE OR A VISUAL DIRECTION. THIS STAGE HELPS YOU SEE THE FUTURE SPACE BEFORE THE COSTS START. THE CONCEPT IS YOUR CONFIDENCE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, IT IS A STRATEGY THAT ALLOWS YOU TO MAKE THE RIGHT DECISIONS AND NOT TO SPEND EXTRA.
WHAT WE DO
Functional skeleton of the future space. Planning options adapted to your habits, lifestyle and needs. Visual and emotional direction: references, mood boards, atmosphere. Preliminary color and stylistic vision.
FOR WHOM
For those who are planning construction or renovation, but want to first understand the planning and meaning. For foreign clients who are looking for a flexible, fast way to get a conceptual vision. For builders and developers who want to test project ideas before starting investments.
SEQUENCE OF ACTIONS
We start with a deep brief: we listen, we ask the right questions. We analyze the tasks, architecture, context, constraints. We offer planning options with diagrams, comments and advantages of each. We create visual collages that convey the mood and character of the space. We explain the idea in the form of a short text description that forms the vector of the project.
WHAT YOU GET
Understanding how the space will look and work before you invest a lot of money. The ability to compare different scenarios and choose the best path. Confidence that the designer understands you and works with your values. The aesthetic, functional and psychological foundation of the entire project. A base from which you can create the project yourself or continue with us.

INTERIOR DESIGN
AT CITEK WE CREATE INTERIORS THAT ARE NOT JUST BEAUTIFUL — THEY ARE HONEST, FUNCTIONAL AND HUMAN. IT IS AN ENVIRONMENT THAT SUPPORTS YOU IN YOUR EVERYDAY LIFE: IN WORK, REST, RELAXATION, SILENCE. WE BELIEVE THAT SPACE INFLUENCES A PERSON NO LESS THAN THE ARCHITECTURE IN WHICH HE EXISTS. THAT IS WHY INTERIOR DESIGN FOR US IS ABOUT MEANING, FEELINGS, CONTACT WITH MATERIALS, LIFE SCENARIOS.
WHAT WE DO
A space where it is comfortable to be yourself. Interiors that adapt to the rhythm of a person. Functional solutions that do not require unnecessary words. An atmosphere that works through light, silence and materials.
FOR WHOM
For owners of apartments, houses, villas, penthouses, etc. For families who are creating their first or new home. For owners of country houses who are looking for peace, light and tranquility. For owners of boutique hotels, apart-hotels, guest houses. For owners of restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, bars who want to get a designer space. For business clients who are developing new types of office spaces: hybrid, cozy, personalized. For developers of residential complexes who are looking for characteristic interiors for showrooms or apartments.
SEQUENCE OF ACTIONS
We start with an in-depth brief to understand who you are, how you live, what you lack in space. We offer planning solutions that take into account not only function, but also future life scenarios. We develop a detailed project – with drawings, visualizations, specifications of materials, furniture and lighting. We support the implementation: author’s supervision, consultations, equipment.
WHAT YOU GET
A space that reflects your values A system solution that takes into account every detail Confidence that everything is thought out – light, routes, zones, tactility A design that never ages – because it is born from you, not from trends.
ARCHITECTURE
AT CITEK WE CREATE ARCHITECTURE THAT DOESN’T DOMINATE, BUT SUPPORTS. A HOUSE IS NOT JUST A VOLUME, IT IS AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE INNER PEACE IS BORN, WHERE SPACE WORKS FOR YOU – NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. WE DO NOT THINK OF A HOUSE IN DETACHMENT FROM PEOPLE, LANDSCAPE, CLIMATE, LIFESTYLE. ARCHITECTURE SHOULD BE HONEST. THAT’S WHY OUR HOUSES ARE SPACIOUS, OPEN, ADAPTIVE AND ALWAYS ALIVE.
WHAT WE DO
Private houses in which a person feels at home. Architecture that does not shout, but speaks to the environment quietly and precisely. Space where light, air and silence are the main components. Forms that serve a person, not emphasize themselves.
FOR WHOM
For customers who dream of their own home with a pure architectural language, who seek to build a meaningful home – not typical, but created just for them. For owners of plots in the city, suburbs or natural environment. For clients who are looking for architecture with a minimalist aesthetic that does not scream, an individual project, not an adaptation of a typical scheme. For customers for whom it is important to have the author by their side at every stage – from sketch to implementation.
SEQUENCE OF ACTIONS
We start with an in-depth dialogue: how you live, what is important to you, what you want to avoid. We analyze the site, climate, context, orientation, relief. We offer an architectural concept that harmoniously combines function, emotion, and image. We develop a complete architectural project — from sketch to working documentation. We accompany the construction process — consultations, control, author’s supervision.
WHAT YOU GET
A house where you will feel free. A space that adapts to the changes in your life. Architecture that will not become outdated, because it is based not on fashion, but on meaning. The feeling that this is your place of power, not just square meters.
