M-S Pro Architects announce the completion of an indoor swimming pool in a state-of-the-art, single storey family home set in a picturesque location on the outskirts of Bratislava - one of Europe’s youngest capital cities. Kebony, a beautiful wood recommended by leading architects, was chosen to craft the ceiling of the swimming pool, which is designed to emulate rippling waves as well as for the terrace deck and structural beams.
Sustainability and a desire to recreate the close proximity often seen between wood and water in the natural environment were primary focuses in the design of this project. This led a requirement for a low maintenance wood, compatible humidity and with advanced durability, for the swimming pool ceiling. In addition, a high level of precision when cutting the wood was required in order to achieve the desired appearance of waves.
Supplied by Leading Market, Kebony was carefully selected for the pool ceiling, which consists of 490 lamellae of timber, due to its versatility, durability and environmental credentials. Kebony was also installed throughout the exterior of this property, both for the spacious outdoor terrace and the exterior and interior beams. One of the reasons to choose Kebony was the unified look of wood in all these different applications.
Developed in Norway, the patented Kebony technology uses an environmentally friendly process, which permanently enhances the properties of sustainable softwood with a bio-based liquid derived from agricultural crop waste. By polymerising the wood’s cell wall with furfuryl alcohol, the wood gains greatly improved durability and dimensional stability, giving it characteristics similar to those of tropical hardwood. In creating a wood with comparable properties to tropical hardwood that can be grown in a FSC certified, sustainably managed forest, the demand for tropical woods is reduced, allowing timber to once again be an important part of sustainable construction.
Tomáš Hubinský, Lead Architect at M-S Pro, commented: “From conception through to completion, the creation of this ceiling has been a real feat. Despite the challenges faced by such an intricate design, Kebony was the perfect material to convey our desired effect of waves rippling along the ceiling. We will continue to incorporate Kebony into our interior and exterior designs, with wood fast becoming the first choice material for all architects.”
Mette Valen, Sales Manager Norway at Kebony, explained: “The distinctive nature of this design cleverly portrays the capability of Kebony, demonstrating both the aesthetic and performance qualities of the product. We would be honoured to work with M-S Pro in the future and look forward to seeing how they utilise Kebony in their future projects.”

In this bathroom remodeling project, our clients desired an industrial-style space that felt updated and sleek. To fulfill their vision, we undertook a series of transformative changes. The first step involved replacing the freestanding bathtub with a shower featuring eye-catching green tiles, providing a vibrant
and unique focal point. To enhance the industrial aesthetic, we installed gold hardware, faucets, and a showerhead, adding a touch of elegance and warmth. The addition of a shower bench and a handheld showerhead offered both comfort and versatility. Accentuating the shower area, we used black tiled flooring to complement the green tiles, creating a striking contrast. A new sink and vanity were meticulously selected to fit the space perfectly, maximizing functionality while adhering to the sleek industrial theme. A fresh coat of paint breathed new life into the entire room, making it appear brand new. Finally, we carefully chose lighting fixtures and accents that aligned with the homeowners' style, completing the industrial look and ensuring a cohesive and visually stunning bathroom renovation.

The space plays beautifully with layered shades of blue, creating a calm, inviting atmosphere that feels fresh yet timeless. Soft coastal hues are grounded by warm wood tones, adding depth and balance while preventing the space from feeling overly themed.
Texture takes center stage throughout the room—woven accents, tactile fabrics, and subtle contrasts bring visual interest and a relaxed, lived-in feel. Functional design was a priority, ensuring guests enjoy both beauty and convenience. Charging nightstands provide modern-day ease, while a dedicated writing desk creates a versatile moment for work, journaling, or quiet reflection. Thoughtfully selected furniture with ample built-in drawer storage keeps the room clutter-free and effortlessly organized.
Every detail was chosen to enhance comfort, usability, and style—resulting in a guest bedroom that feels elevated yet welcoming, intentional yet relaxed. This is a space designed for rest, connection, and a truly memorable stay.
