Under The Skilful Eye Of Architectural Interior Designer Masha Kaya Of Sketch The Space, A Penthouse Becomes A Cosy Sanctuary That Revels In Its Green Surroundings.
The fresh, earthy scent of wood has always left an indelible impression on Masha Kaya, architectural interior designer and founder of Sketch The Space. “I remember the smell of wood from my childhood years. Back then, my father worked on the restoration of antique furniture, and often took me with him to his workshop,” shares the designer. “After his work was finished, I collected materials from the leftovers of woodcuts and sawdust, and was able to play with them to create small objects that are still kept at my father’s house.”
For this penthouse project, she wanted to celebrate this particular woody aroma, while conveying elements of the cosy, “provincial style” ambience that the owners wanted within their penthouse. “The task with this project was to do something contemporary with a provincial touch,” she explains. The apartment already benefited from ample daylight as well as the stellar views of the city and its lush surroundings—these were integrated into the design to make the apartment truly a home sweet home.
