Honeycomb House/Bacau
A multifunctional house that merges the functions of living, entertaining(hobby) and wellness(spa). The Spa plays an important role in the client’s wish to transform his way of living. The idea of a green life is translated through the architect’s vision, into a passive house and an active and healthy way of life.
Music Pub/ Sibiu
The design of the pub aims to preserve the medieval atmosphere of the building where it’s located. Old candle chandeliers and metal elements contrast with a touch of contemporary design. The textures and lighting convey a time traveling feeling that sends you back to the middle-ages, tricking you into thinking that you brought a little of the present with you.
