This 65 SQM apartment in Tel-Aviv went through a complete renovation. All inner walls were demolished and a new layout was designed tailor made for a young family, a couple and their two small children.

The challenging dimensions of the apartment, just 4 meters wide and 15 meters long, together with the client's essential wishes for lots of storage space, dictated the new layout.

A 5.5 meter long storage unit was designed along the only windowless wall. This storage ends in the children's room, becoming their private cupboard. A sliding door locks into the cupboard when privacy is needed. This door is at ceiling height and when open, it makes the children's room an integral part of the space.

Another storage cupboard is in the parent's bedroom, producing all in all eight meters long of storage in this small apartment.

The design concept uses a basic monochromatic scheme with blocks of colour around the apartment, added by metal elements and wood flooring. The result is a colourful and calming space.
