We have designed generous dining seating, we assume this part of the apartment is going to be social center of whole apartment. Massive wooden table for six people is completed with black wooden chairs. At the table level we proposed control lighting panel and electric socket for an occasional connection to telephone and notebook.
Good location of the apartment allows guests all day vistas on the nearby hillside. We have designed furniture to keep the windows free and don’t lower the unique view from the daily section. To ensure privacy we added curtains to all windows, in bedrooms are also blinds which can almost completely obscure the areas.
The dominant of the interior are natural materials corresponding with the surrounding environment. For floors we used solid wooden flooring and gray gres tiles. Made-to-measure furniture is wooden with wooden white colors. The remaining accessories are designed in neutral colors that complement the natural character of the interior.

Small layout forced us to distribute furnishings rational and effective. The priority was added to the dining table which is considerably big for comfort eating of six persons. We have designed for the same amount of people also living room seating. Space-saving kitchen kit allows comfortable cooking.
We have adjusted the apartment lighting to the inhabitant’s needs, the intensity of the majority of the lighting devices is regulated via dimmer. The hallway is without any day light, therefore we design strong sources of diffuse light. In the day-zone and bedrooms are lights with variable sources, so they can produce different lighting scenes and atmosphere.
In daily space we hid TV into the cabinet behind the sliding doors. Low living room wardrobe has on the top surface located board made of the artificial stone with holes for ventilation of hi-fi components. On the right of the assembly is a fireplace with electronic burner. Fabric sofa in creamy white color contrasts to the wooden pieces of furniture.
In some living rooms is TV the center of the room. In this apartment we wanted to suppress the dominance of TV, so we hid it into the cabinet behind the sliding doors. Television is hidden so good and it appears only when needed. High position allows watching TV from all parts of the daily zone of a kitchen, living room and dining room.
We have designed a kitchen without holds to highlight the nature of the wooden veneer on the doors. High cabinets are interrupted only by block of stainless steel blind and built-in appliances. The kitchen doors hide a high-quality interior trim in glass-white design. Hinged doors of the upper cabinets are designed with electrical control.
Wooden kitchen has all built-in appliances. There is a kitchen blind for small kitchen appliances in the middle of kitchen kit.

There are usually used tailed ironwork in higher cabinets. It means difficult manipulation during the closing of the doors which are in the open position at the ceiling level. Electric controlled ironwork doesn’t have this problem. You can open the doors with gentle touch of the surface and therefore no holds are necessary. Closing of the doors is arranged with switch located in the lower part.
Wooden furniture parts are made of stained oak veneer of thickness 2 mm (standard veneer is 0.6 mm) and we let it brush. Brushing means to progressively grind the sufrace of the wooden veneer, when the softer parts of the wood are removed untill only the harder parts remain and so it highlights the wood structure.
Kitchen countertop and basin are made of artificial stone Zodiaq. The artificial stone is one of the best materials for the countertop space of the kitchen because it is hard, durable and it doesn’t contain pores. Among the artificial stones has Zodiaq the best properties in terms of color durability and cleaning. Next to the basin are located drip grooves for the kitchenware.

Cooking panels located in the kitchen island looks effective but usage of overhead digestor hanged from the ceiling can easily suppress this effect. Therefore we have designed digestor in the countertop that can be push out during the cooking to duct steam directly from the source. After turning off it comes back inside the countertop and optical convey into the clean line and open space feeling of the kitchen.
We have designed generous ski-apartment foyer, whose space allows welcoming 6 persons at the same time. Gres floor tiles are water-resistant, mirrors located on the sides multiply the space of the foyer. Solid wood bench together with the hanger, despite of the unique design fit the purpose and with their character fit into the interior.

Spectacular floor space of the corridor fulfills the function of foyer and also the interconnection of communication between the inlet, day and night zone. We extend this space with mirrors, which we placed on the opposite walls between the corridor and sanitary places. Mirrors in addition to the optical enlargement of the area make also the space curious and magic.
The dominance of the communication space is built-in wardrobe, which divides by its mass the entrance hall from the day zone. Wardrobe has plenty of storage space for all the apartment quests. Large circular lights embedded in the ceiling plan give to the dark space enough light and their intensity can be controlled.
We have specified the wardrobe in the hallway to cover the demands for six adults. It consists of three parts, rails for hanging the clothes on the left, stainless steel shelves for clothes and shoes in the middle designed as pull-out for better access.

The fan soaks the polluted air directly from the bowl, go through the filter made from the activated carbon built-in the button and through the button returns back to the room.
We obtained the place for the "professional" sauna at the expense of full-time space, which we consider as a right decision because full-featured suite sauna gives greater added value. Combined Finnish sauna with infra-rated sauna has the capacity of 6 persons and cedar siding, LED star sky and the sound system.
When we use free standing faucets in the bathroom the most problematic place to maintain is usually the basin's surrounding. There appear narrow places between the wall and faucet where can be formed water stain and lime scale, which is very difficult to remove. Wall mounted basin faucets eliminate this problem and their design and look can be really attractive.
We designed spacious rain shower into the master bathroom which also serves the function of chilling shower while using sauna. We overlaid the walls and ceilings of the shower with teak wood mosaic. To ensure the feeling of privacy you can obscure use window blinds special designed for humid space.
Characteristic detail of the shower corner in the master bathroom has three water-resistant materials. On the side walls is used mosaic made of teak wood, the wall with window was smoothed and then used wallpaper treated white water-resistant paint. On the floor as the most exposed area, we have proposed a gray paving from the artificial stone.
Smaller bathroom in ski-apartment serves as a night-zone bathroom and contains two basins and bathtub. White sprayed cabinets form contrast to the dark flooring and wooden teak mosaic. For the top surface of the cabinets we used countertop from artificial stone Zodiaq, the same material we used in the kitchen and living room.

Sound system of this apartment provides besides receiver and blue-ray player also network music player Sonos. Sonos represents ideal and affordable solutions for multi-zone sound system of several rooms. We have unmuted together 5 zones in this apartment – three bedrooms, day-zone and bathroom with sauna.
Network player Sonos Play 5 contains its own speaker, so it is the ideal solution for the rooms where we do not want to have other speakers. The device can play music from a network drive and from internet, connects via wifi and it can be controlled via phone, tablet or computer. It can act also as a clock radio.
Bio fireplace with electronic burner has the advantage that it can be operated by remote control and it has sensor on the carbon dioxide which in a case of exceeding the values automatically turn off the fireplace. Alcohol reservoir has a volume of 4 liters and after the full load the burn last about 4 hours. Thermal power of the bio fireplace with a length of 40 cm is 6 kW/h.
Sound of the daily space is provided by home theater system Cabasse Eole 3, which means a good ratio price / performance. Speakers have unusual rounded shape and can be mounted on a wall or ceiling.
In apartments which are not used frequently, quests can be lost and orient with difficulties. Therefore we suggest so called “walk to the toilets” – gentle lighting of the walk to the toilets with LED lights that illuminate direction but do not dazzle inhabitants too much to wake them up during the nights.
