The design of a lavish bachelor pad presents design challenges that are distinctly different from those encountered in an opulent family home. Perched atop a brand new skyscraper that is nestled in the heart of Kiev, this sensational loft apartment spread across 155 square meters is truly world class in every sense of the word. Designed by the creative duo of Igor Martin and Olga Novikova from MARTINarchitects, it leaves you speechless with a mesmerizing use of contrasting textures, a seamless blend of refined contemporary style and industrial flair, and an ambiance that is absolutely fitting for a spectacular bachelor pad!
Glass, brick and wood are used with great balance, precision and captivating finesse inside this loft home that still stays true to the principles of traditional Ukrainian architecture. A glass wall with a dark metal frame separates the bedroom from the living area of the bachelor pad, and a flowing brick wall makes its presence felt in every area of the home.
Large glass windows also offer spectacular views of the city, while a splendid green wall becomes the star of the show in the moody dining room. Since it was designed to fit the sleek lifestyle of its single homeowner, low-maintenance decor and finishing were key aspects that defined the many choices made inside the loft home.
The color scheme is kept largely neutral but with a masculine twist, and the lighting adds to the dark, sophisticated vibe indoors. Unique furniture pieces crafted by Igor Martin for HIS add to the style of the apartment, even as cleverly placed splashes of yellow give it a more pleasant and inviting look. With a dramatic contemporary bathroom and a beautiful bedroom flanked by a home workspace on one side and a walk-in wardrobe on the other, this is a bachelor pad that any guy would be proud to call his own.
