Nestled in the cultural heart of Kraków, this 861-square-foot (80 m²) apartment blends bold creativity with refined spatial logic.

Designed for a couple in the creative industry, the one-bedroom, two-bathroom residence is a visual narrative brought to life by Butterfly Studio’s signature storytelling through color, form, and unexpected charm.

A Kitchen Where Cinema Meets Function

Designers reimagined the classic kitchen layout by replacing the traditional island with a versatile table.

A suspended ceiling cleverly hides a structural irregularity while also concealing a drop-down projector screen.

Soft pink hues extend from walls to grout lines, wrapping the space in a whimsical, cinematic ambiance that evokes Anderson’s iconic color palettes.

Terrazzo as a Personal Signature

The terrazzo-loving owner infused the space with this material in creative and consistent ways.

From countertops and tiles to custom planters, terrazzo appears throughout the apartment in a symphony of speckles and hues.

Its playful textures and multicolored patterns harmonize beautifully with the home’s vintage-inspired pastel palette.

A Cat-Friendly Sanctuary

Designers thoughtfully included a feline passage within the bathroom wall, connecting a hidden litter box to the cat’s daily routine.

The custom cabinet blends seamlessly with the rest of the room, maintaining the interior’s aesthetic while offering practical functionality.

This clever integration honors both form and function, ensuring every inhabitant feels at home.

Geometric Dreamscape in the Bedroom

The bedroom embraces geometric abstraction with a bold headboard made of intersecting forms in contrasting tones.

A wall clad in vertical blue fluting adds depth and texture, anchoring the bed with a sense of rhythm.

Minimalist furniture, rounded lighting, and natural-toned fabrics complete the scene with calm sophistication.

Playful Pastels with Purpose

Pastel colors in pink, blue, and mint thread through the apartment, imbuing it with lightness and charm.

These shades are never ornamental alone—they shape the ambiance while subtly dividing functional zones.

Whether in bathroom tiles or cabinetry details, color choices reflect thoughtful spatial storytelling.

Architectural Illusions and Clever Storage

Steel columns concealed behind the television and a recessed ceiling equipped with integrated technology highlight the home’s architectural ingenuity.

Designers turned limitations into highlights, using these features to anchor visual interest and support multifunctional living.

Storage solutions, including full-height wardrobes and built-ins, ensure that aesthetic elegance never comes at the cost of practicality.

Vintage Touches and Polish Design Icons

The space pays homage to mid-century design with carefully curated pieces like totems by Koki Skowrońska and vases from Ms. Jurek and Malwina Konopacka.

These accents bring cultural depth and narrative continuity, enriching the apartment with timeless craftsmanship.

Each object tells a story while contributing to the overall harmony of the décor.

Cinematic Interiors

Curved furniture, abstract art, and pastel shelving combine to create a living area that feels playful, cozy, and deeply rooted in design.
