Small Modern Industrial Apartment Captivates with Remarkable Textural Contrast

ByMyProperty Life

Forgotten industrial buildings built in the last century, old warehouses that have not been in use for a while now and dilapidated structures needing an urgent intervention have been some of the reasons for the resurgence of modern industrial style. In an attempt to provide efficient, cost-effective and suitable housing, architects have transformed many industrial buildings into residences that are both charming and unique. Nestled in one such building in the city of Tbilisi, Georgia is this fabulous apartment designed by 4 Visual. The stylish, modern and space-savvy apartment retains much of its original industrial appeal and does so with splendid panache!

The first thing one notices as they step into the spacious living room is the eye-catching blend of different textures with each complementing the other beautifully. A wooden ceiling with sturdy beams and woodsy floor with chevron pattern are combined with a large leather sofa, smart décor that feels as modern as it is industrial, glass walls and even an exposed brick wall section leading to the kitchen. The kitchen next to the living area is small and simple with a breakfast bar that seats three, modern pendant lights, blue cabinets and ample storage.

Another highlight inside the apartment is the bedroom with its framed glass walls that connect it with the living room whenever necessary. A series of drapes in the living area and in the bedroom allow the homeowners to shift between privacy and unabated views even as the little balcony outside offers a bird’s eye-view of Tbilisi’s bustling streets.

    Situated in Tulum, this small boutique hotel rises between the trees, in which the main concept consisted in preserving 70% of the existing vegetation in order to build around it. By achieving this, every space of the project is always in relation to its natural surroundings. The hotel has five 50m2 lodges, formed by a double height room, a mezzanine or “tapanco”, a terrace and an indoor-outdoor bathroom. At the back of the lot the social areas are located, with a dining space and yoga pavilion hanging in cantilever over the pool. The main idea of this water element is to be extruded from the ground in between the vegetation. For this reason, two old zapote trees were preserved, which look as they were rising from the pool itself. All the project is composed by local materials, as well as low maintenance and natural textures, which provide a warm atmosphere to the buildings. A particular finish found on the walls is “chukum”, a Mayan stucco characteristic of the region, which uses a tree resin to give its distinctive color, appearance and durability. The objective was to use materials that age with dignity, so that with the passing of time the architecture acquires character and a deeper sense of belonging. The different volumes of the complex are scattered along the lot, between the trees and stone paths, which provide a sensation of being in a small village in the Mayan jungle. Throughout the design process there was a search for pure forms and natural materials that could blend with the surrounding context. In a sense, Jungle Keva is like an abstraction or simplification of vernacular architecture, easy to read, simple and with a social, natural and economic conscience.
