Panoramic apartment as a space without compromise.
This project did not begin with style or materials. Its starting point was the layout — more precisely, the potential revealed by merging two mirrored apartments into a single semi-circular space with panoramic views of the city and the river. The unification of the two apartments made it possible to abandon the standard “room-by-room” logic and design the space around its primary value — the view. The panorama of the Cherkasy Sea ceased to be a backdrop and became an integral element of the interior. The curved façade line defines a natural radius of movement, while the living areas unfold along the windows, ensuring continuous visual contact with the horizon throughout the day.
A layout that works for spatial perception.
The semi-circular shape of the apartment established the core logic of the project. We deliberately avoided rigid axes and excessive partitions in order to preserve a sense of openness and depth. The central zone functions as a connective core, around which the living, private, and service areas are organized.
This approach allowed us to:
- provide panoramic views from the main living spaces;
- separate private and public scenarios without sacrificing openness;
- create smooth circulation routes without “dead-end” corridors;
- use the curvature of the façade as an advantage rather than a limitation.
This project demonstrates how non-standard geometry does not complicate a space but strengthens it — provided there is a clear planning logic.
Minimalism as a tool, not a style.
The interior is designed in a restrained, refined minimalism, where every element has a functional and spatial rationale. Dark accent walls add depth and intimacy, balancing the scale of the panorama. Warm wooden flooring introduces tactility and comfort, while soft integrated lighting creates layered lighting scenarios without visual noise. Furniture and built-in systems do not dominate the space but support its architectural structure. Visual accents are kept to a minimum so that the space itself and the view beyond the windows remain the primary focus.
This project is about conscious decision-making — rejecting templates in favor of logic, scenarios, and the inherent potential of the property. The design process began with analysis and concept, not decoration, which made it possible to create a space that is not driven by trends and does not lose relevance over time. The result is an apartment where architecture, layout, and interior function as a unified system — a space in which the panorama becomes part of everyday life, not just a beautiful view.
