We travel because we need to, because distance and difference are the secret tonic to creativity. When we get home, home is still the same, but something in our minds has changed, and that changes everything.
Yūgen apartment by DUDES architects
Yūgen apartment is apartment located in Minsk, Belarusian designed by DUDES architects.
The architecture of the common space is shaped by the clear rhythm of the windows. The window line is a unifying element between the living room and the bedroom, thus increasing the overall space of the flat. The windows have shutters in the plane of the window frame. A reinforced cedar window sill cuts through the entire window line and merges with the volume of the bedroom podium. The window sill creates a directional axis to the room. There is a beam on the ceiling, parallel to the window sill, which is an important axis of the room and a unifying element. A ventilating grille is hidden in the beam. The bedroom soffit is intentionally glazed at the beam height to allow diffused light to shine into the concrete ceiling.
The concrete ceiling combines two differently functioning spaces and creates a contrast of natural materials. The common space in the living room includes a dining area with a large solid oak dining table(e15 ASHIDA). On the wall behind the table, a minimalist painting is an accent piece which, along with the green wood, brings the minimalist Japanese interior to life. The seating area with a modular sofa (Meridiani LOUSI) against the bedroom wall, which becomes a projection screen if required. The window sill creates a directional axis to the room.

The door to the bedroom folds down to the same level as the wall plane, opening up the common space.
