Working to disprove the adage “the more originality, the less chance of success in the market,” Fast and Furious came up with a design for all three apartments that highlights the finishing, arrangement and design of the space. They viewed the transformation of the 15o-square-meter-space as a creative endeavor that would show that this “so-called Aesthetics of Capitalism” could co-exist with innovative design.

Two basic concepts underlie the design in all three of the apartments. First is the diagonal arrangement of the two glass rooms in the space: The bedroom and the bathroom. Each of those spaces is enclosed by 4-millimeter thick glass walls that are highlighted with architectural metal framing. The second concept is how the space is defined by the convex corners, even in the kitchen, on the cabinets and on the glass walls.

The diagonal arrangement of the bathroom and the bedroom make the living space seem larger and the angled placement of the sofa and chairs increase the useable space. A glass table and chairs sit in the corner by the bedroom, making the most of a spot that is out of the main flow of the apartment. Repeated use of glass maintains the light and open feeling and is enhanced by the inclusion of lighting inside the cove ceiling. The raised element heightens the space and the lack of hanging fixtures eliminates visual clutter.
