Metropolis Sanctuary | ZROBIM architects

The residential complex is situated in the heart of the metropolis, yet near a large park and river, thus blending the urban and the natural. This concept of combining the seemingly incompatible extends into the interior design. For instance, a classic island made of natural marble contrasts with a kitchen backsplash that mimics metal. The apartment’s layout is complex and jagged, which determines the configuration of the furniture. This resulted in a kitchen island with a unique, angular shape, while the dining area features a table from Cassina. The entire space is filled with striking accent elements that capture attention. If there is a rug, it is tactile and voluminous. If there is flooring, it is not simple microcement but features artificially created cracks in the kintsugi technique. The walls are adorned not with paint but with textured decorative plaster. Overall, the aim was to create a highly textured and charismatic interior, inviting one to touch every detail, whether it be the cabinets or the panels.

The two perimeter walls of the property have a folding zigzag facade, thus the architecture determines the future interior: the shape of the island and the table. It emphasizes the exclusivity of the space and the presence of artsy Italian furniture.
