Year : 2024
Interior Design / Conceptual Reading Room
Inspired by : Romanesque architecture, International Style, modern ergonomic furniture
A soaring, cathedral-inspired reading room defined by grand Romanesque arches, featuring dark wood bookshelves with wave like forms, an International style glass desk, and sculptural seating. A dramatic stained glass skylight fills the space with vibrant, multicolored light, creating a harmonious blend of history and modernity.
Step into a soaring cathedral inspired space, where the majesty of Romanesque arches rises to the ceiling, creating a powerful sense of verticality and grandeur. These arches structurally frame the room and integrate meticulously crafted dark-stained wood bookshelves with parametric, wave like curves, adding fluidity and organic elegance. At the center, a sleek International-style glass desk contrasts with the classical architecture, paired with an ergonomic leather chair balancing comfort and style. Above, a geometric stained glass skylight floods the space with vibrant, multicolored light, enlivening the serene environment. Sculptural seating zones are thoughtfully arranged to encourage quiet reflection and relaxation. This design pays tribute to historic craftsmanship and modern principles, blending past and present in a tranquil sanctuary.
