The realized interior design of an apartment in the center of Kyiv, brings a tactile accent to the interior through the use of contrasting materials. Our vision was to go beyond visual aesthetics and create an atmosphere that immerses in sensations through touch. The design's core is the harmony of textures, exemplified by the choice of clay-colored decorative plaster. Hand-molded bas-reliefs, serving as both visual art and tactile decoration, grace the living room and bedroom. Natural wood furniture complements this, creating a juxtaposition between the smoothness at the fingertips and the rough walls, reinforcing the connection to nature. The color palette draws inspiration from the earthy tones of clay and sand, with warm wood elements instilling a sense of coziness. Ukrainian-manufactured furniture and decor introduce vibrant color accents, enhancing the overall depth of the space. We used introduces thoughtful contrasts to prevent monotony, incorporating bold accent colors such as terracotta and graphite. These hues play a pivotal role, subtly highlighting different zones and contributing to a harmonious interplay of shades, infusing Luna with dynamism. Size / 108 sq.m.

When our clients made the move from East to West coast, they wanted to bring parts of their past along with them. Blending New York style with the relaxed, coastal vibe of La Jolla’s Wind & Sea community offered a unique design challenge and opportunity. From the outset, the bathrooms and kitchen were identified as the primary focus of this renovation. The aim was to weave the couple's distinctive style into the design while integrating modern touches. As we explored these priorities, we found that increasing the square footage would not only expand their living space but also make room for the corner fireplace they had been dreaming of. This addition would enhance both the functionality and the ambiance of the home, aligning perfectly with their vision for a more spacious and cozy living environment. The design approach embraced a contemporary aesthetic through simple black and white color blocking, complemented by unique fixtures and fittings. To create a balanced and inviting atmosphere, the design incorporated natural light by way of skylights and larger windows, which helped highlight the deep wood grain cabinetry. Whimsical art and furnishings further personalized the space, infusing it with character and warmth.

After completing this client's formal Living Room project, the next project on the list was the Dining Room. Because these two rooms are adjoining, one needed to be an extension of the other in style, inspiration, and color. Reflecting my client's love of European travel and collected antiques, I infused elements reflecting these things in the artwork, buffet styling, and hand-loomed oriental rug. Crisp fabrics against dark wood add high contrast which is updated but timeless, and the dual fabric application on the Louis chairs is an unexpected modern detail. Adding in crystal details in the lighting with the blue and white ginger jar keep the room elegant and classic.

The Blanc Home Nestled in the heart of Mumbai, this 660 sq.ft. residence designed by Studio Dhi is a seamless blend of modern elegance and everyday comfort. The interiors embrace a soft, muted palette enriched with textures, prints, and pops of colour. Abundant natural light filters through the home, accentuating curated furniture pieces and creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. Lighting plays a pivotal role across all zones of the project, carefully layered to enhance both mood and spatial perception. The design language is contemporary modern, with subtle hints of European charm. Defined by clean lines, tactile surfaces, and a neutral base, the white shell becomes a canvas for thoughtful detailing and personality. Each room carries a distinct identity while folding harmoniously into the larger narrative. The master bedroom exudes a warm, muted sophistication, while the mother’s bedroom is imbued with a feminine European touch—anchored in soft blues, blush pinks, and gentle greens. In the living room, a beige sofa grounds the space, complemented by fluted wall panelling and mirrored accents. A carved marble temple sits gracefully beside a mint-green console, set against a softly textured wallpaper backdrop. What elevates the residence beyond a modern European aesthetic is the layered craftsmanship—bespoke wall detailing, custom-designed furniture, and finely executed finishes. Art infuses colour and character, indoor greens soften the interiors, and a thoughtful lighting strategy highlights every crafted element. Together, these details create a home that is elegant yet personal, contemporary yet timeless.

This Westbury NY home was an exciting renovation for an amazing couple looking to clean and brighten up their home. Their desire for a dreamy escape was achieved with large slabs of Calacatta marble on the kitchen counters, and a custom made breakfast table. The crystal sunburst chandelier takes center stage while brass chair details and cabinet hardware add elegance and sophistication. Quirky Fornasetti pottery & pillows, Pops of color in art and accessories along with whimsical wallpapered ceilings are infused throughout; adding an element of fun to this chic home. All elements come together creating a rich, light, airy space with unexpected accents that enliven and breathe excitement into the interiors.

John knew it was time for a change, his outdated master bathroom with an uninspired color scheme did little to invoke a sense of relaxation or style. The lackluster ambiance was far from the relaxing experience he and his wife desired. His aim was clear: to infuse the master bathroom with modern lines and a fresh, bright aesthetic. Our design team worked closely with him to select materials and fixtures that would bring his vision to life. The new painted white shaker style cabinets and Fairy White Quartz countertops brought a fresh and clean look to the vanity area. The Delta Kayra faucets give a contemporary flair that is aesthetically pleasing and ergonomically satisfying. The Kohler Verdera mirrors are more than just reflective surfaces; they provide smart storage solutions that enhanced the functionality of the space. The old shower made way for the sleek, custom-built shower, lined with stunning Flash White ceramic tiles. The Themar Statuario Hex Mesh on the floor and the shimmering Swell Glass in the niche added layers of texture and modernity. As the crown jewel the Kohler Sunward Collection soaking tub was thoughtfully installed with a tiled front tub deck, complemented by the same Quartz used for the vanity countertop, marrying consistency and luxury in design.

This project took APD to the Oregon Coast for the remodel of two beach house bathrooms! The primary suite was gutted - removing an unused jetted tub in favor of an expansive corner vanity. The shower was opened up by removing an awkwardly located tall cabinet and by swapping a full height wall in favor for a pony wall with glass above. The bathroom is bathed in natural light via the skylight and frosted casement window. A luxurious shower experience was created with ceiling mount rain shower head, wall mount fixed shower head, hand shower on slider bar, and a modern waterfall slab shower bench with integrated niche. A subtle coastal vibe was created with the blue, white, and sandy gray color palette while artistic light fixtures fixtures, clean lined matte black plumbing, and straight stacked tile infuse modernity. In the hall bathroom, a cohesive design was created with added playfulness from the patterned floor tile!

This 1946 cape cod style home cloistered a kitchen that was in need of a full makeover! The homeowner requested modernization, additional lighting, updated appliances, durable/cleanable surfaces for a bright, clean and fresh look. Functional layout, counter-space and storage were desperately lacking. Classic subway tile extends up to the ceiling and adds shine and cleanability. Hand made decorative glazed lotus tiles, juxtaposed with modern stainless steel finishes, created a focal point above the stove and drove the color scheme. Accents in the gorgeous custom window valances and grout, echo subtle hints of soft gray throughout. Gray veined quartz countertop and composite sink are durable and stylish. Adding matte black hardware and light fixtures infused pops of contrast to an almost all white palette. Modern but classic white cabinets maximized storage by running full height. Base cabinets offered deep drawers and pull-outs, eliminating the need to bend over. A large vertical pantry provided much needed space for dry goods. The original kitchen’s heating duct/vent and existing fridge gobbled up valuable counter space and caused the stove to lack necessary clearance on either side. Relocating the vent and refrigerator created space for a functional peninsula just off the back door for an arm-load of groceries or perch for friends to enjoy the company of the chef. Tucked below the windows, a built-in bench with custom upholstered cushions in Sunbrella performance fabric, maximized seating and extra storage. The perfect oval tulip table added a modern touch to this transitional kitchen.

This client came to us with a unique challenge: create a modern design that matches her fun and funky personality but to make it as "green" and chemical free as possible. We rose to the challenge, researching the best options for sustainable, green and chemical free furnishings. The upholstery pieces are made from sustainable and chemical free materials, the dining table is made of sustainable wood with a chemical free finish. The rugs are from a fair-trade company that supports education for women in India. The client had hired a Feng Shui expert to provide her with a report which we used to design the space. The wallpaper behind the living room sofa is custom designed and custom-made. It is a map made up of hundred of small photos that the homeowner provided to us. It represents the area in her home that will bring travel and connect her to the people she loves. The large, colorful art piece in the dining area is hung in the area of the home that will bring joy around family and children. The hearts and pink/red colored wallpaper in the den will evoke love and relationships. The client has a colorful, fun personality and we wanted to infuse the design with it. A white backdrop allows all of the pinks, reds, navy blues and turquoises to pop, creating a lively, modern feeling. The textures in the floor and wall coverings and in the fabrics create a lived in, collected feeling and add a touch of bohemian chic style. The new modern cable and walnut stair banister is in keeping with the original modern feel of the row house and keeps the narrow staircase from feeling tight and closed in. This was a fun, creative and unique project for us. This particular client was one of Olamar's first clients eight years ago when we first opened our doors. At that time the house was nothing but a condemned shell that the client renovated, with our assistance. At that time we designed the kitchen, which is still in excellent condition and still looks amazing! Photographer: Greg Tinius

The walls are painted in crisp white, creating a clean and airy backdrop that instantly brightens the space. This serene environment sets the stage for a delightful and enjoyable bathroom experience. In the center of the bathroom, a very light brown single sink vanity takes center stage, offering a touch of warmth and sophistication. The white countertop complements the vanity, providing a clean and seamless surface for everyday use. The large modern chrome square handles on the vanity drawers add a contemporary touch, making it easy for little hands to access their essentials. Above the vanity, two modern mirrors sit side by side, creating a symmetrical and balanced look. The mirrors not only serve a functional purpose but also add a touch of style to the space. Nestled between the mirrors is a sleek medicine cabinet, providing extra storage for medications and other necessities. On either side of the mirrors, two windows let in natural light, infusing the bathroom with a sense of openness and brightness. The windows also offer a glimpse of the outdoors, adding to the cheerful and welcoming atmosphere of the room. The double sink on the vanity is perfect for accommodating siblings or friends, making it convenient for children to brush their teeth or wash their hands together. The two modern faucets add a playful element to the bathroom, allowing kids to easily control the water flow. This kids' bathroom is a delightful combination of functionality and style. The white walls, light brown vanity, modern mirrors, and chrome accents create a harmonious and inviting space for children to enjoy their daily routines.
