SPECIAL FEATURE

TeATime in SpAin Flowers, greenery, colourful décor- a vibrancy, a festive feel, and a party vibe all around- that’s what describes my experiences in Spain. It’s a space you just feel invigorated and rejuvenated in. The tea party exuberated all these feelings and transported me to the land of Andalusia and Seville. Using colourful cushions, flowers set up in different vases and mugs, a family heirloom colourful tea set, and of course my plants- all set up the mood and greeted me with a widely grinning Hola! And yes, my heart did do a Flamingo dance.

Project Name: Ukrainian Wabi Sabi. 5.0 by Sergey Makhno Architects | Area: 200 sq.m | Location: Kozyn, Kyiv. | Year: 2019 Team: Sergey Makhno, Serhii Filonchuk, Olha Sobchyshyna, Illia Tovstonog, Ihor Tykhyi | Photography: Serhii Kadulin

A balance between emptiness and comfort, nature and technology, passion and zen, is what this impeccable project exudes. Dipped in the aesthetics of natural elements, the space is a perfect symbiosis of flamboyance and glory. The planning of the apartment is kept as simple as possible. The walls of the living room are in clay, the ceiling is in clay and wood, one of the four walls is a window. Japanese wabi-sabi way of life is a peaceful joy to accept the full life circle and hence this guides the perfection of the design. It is beautiful to see the Ashwood on the floor, which is warmed with granny’s carpets, that this family has preserved both as spiritual traditions and material.
