A modern minimalist interior with a spacious air awaits in this large family apartment in Latvia. Visualized by Bodes Studio, the 296 square meter apartment in Riga features an open-plan living space with a sleek kitchen diner, a secret butler’s pantry, a bright open-plan modern staircase, a stunning master bedroom suite with a home workspace and walk-in wardrobe, and two uber stylish kid’s rooms with study areas. Light neutral decor in shades of warm white and beige fills the family home with a sense of peace that clears away the overwhelm of modern life. Contemporary furniture, area rugs, and considered lighting designs complete the chic aesthetic.
Three oversized pendant lights make an enormous cluster over the main living area. Their organic, handcrafted silhouettes add a natural touch to the minimalist living room and create an eye-catching focal point.
The modular sofa arrangement is accessed from two sides. One side is focused toward the living room TV, while the other side of the big couch looks upon the open-plan dining area.
A large area rug defines the lounge area in the spacious open-plan layout. Edge-to-edge windows bring an influx of natural light into the scheme.
The dining area is attached to the kitchen. A black dining table is interconnected with the central kitchen island, where the tabletop slices between the deep marble countertop and the cabinets below.
A white dining room pendant light illuminates the eating area while a black linear pendant light blends with the dark kitchen. Beige upholstered dining chairs make soft contrast with the dark design.
A secret butler's pantry is concealed behind a regular cabinet door. Dark, handleless kitchen cabinets line the room, lit by ribbons of LED light.
Open shelving holds canisters within easy reach and a small countertop makes a handy task area.
A modern staircase design rises through the open-plan living room. Its solid white balustrade conceals the treads from view of the lounge area. A small succulent garden rests underneath the incline.
LED light strips underline each stair riser and highlight the slender handrail. At the top, a full-length window floods the stairwell with light.
The walk-in wardrobe is generously proportioned and is fitted with a floor-to-ceiling closet organizer with drawers. Illuminated garment rails, shoe shelves, and large storage nooks, equip the dressing space with plentiful options.
A round ottoman completes the walk-in closet, offering a place to try on shoes or place down shopping bags full of new season finds.
The master bedroom is an enormous suite with a wide-framed minimalist bed. It boasts a huge, smoked glass terrarium, which divides the sleep space from the bedroom entryway and home workspace. A colorful rug further defines the relaxation zone with a blend of warm and comforting tones.
Unique bedroom pendant lights are paired above a low-slung bedside unit to create a modern ensemble. A full-length wall mirror is mounted behind the pairing to construct a vertical link.
The open-plan bedroom suite includes a walk-in closet area, which is brightly lit by a large window. Sheer window voiles offer privacy. A casually leaning, black framed mirror and a neat pouf complete the boutique vibe.
A white microcement floor floods the bedroom, office area, and walk-in closet with light reflective properties.
Modern track lighting cuts through the room, distributing bright illumination and an edgy, contemporary style.
The bedroom workspace is furnished with a sleek black desk and matching desk chair. A slimline desk lamp provides focussed task lighting over the desktop while a linear wall light brings soft mood lighting.
A partition wall sections the work area from the bedroom entryway. Open shelves rest between its two supporting columns to break up its bulk and provide utility.
The first kid’s room features an upholstered wall texture, lit along its upper edge with a ribbon of concealed illumination. Two modern wall sconces are installed against the fabric headboard wall, where they throw light over a modern bedside unit.
A small black accent table balances out the opposite side of the bed, resting beneath a bedroom pendant light.
Wall-hung storage cabinets stow away some of the child’s favorite toys and books. A large bedroom rug lays soft texture under foot.
Custom-made kids’ wardrobes fill the opposite wall, pausing only to accommodate a kid’s desk area. Angular door hardware decorates the wardrobes with playful criss-cross motifs.
A yellow pouf and cool chair make a cheerful addition to the neutral gray and white bedroom decor scheme. A wooden easel forms a creative zone for the little artist.
The yellow kid’s desk chair adds a punch of color to the wall of white wardrobes and matching desk. A tower of illuminated bookshelves is integrated into the end of the wardrobe run, tucking the tomes out of plain sight. An illuminated mirror creates the option of using the desk as a vanity table.
The kids’ bathroom is an elegant space so that it will grow with the child. A rubber ducky is given pride of place on a befitting yellow-tinted side table. Wall-hung storage cabinets hide away the rest of the bath toys, bubble baths, and shampoo.
The second kid’s room has a cozy, simple aesthetic with soothing perimeter lighting - perfect for creating a sleepy atmosphere for a little one. The kid’s bed is wrapped on two sides by cushioned panels that bring deep texture to the minimalist room. The customary bedside table is removed in favor of a round ottoman table.
Track lights stripe the ceiling and the bedroom wall, cutting bold black lines into the fresh white paintwork.
A gray swivel chair and a light wood-effect desk make up a kid’s study space. A matching grey rug provides soft footing around the bed.
Pale gray drapes frame a large bedroom window that floods the work area with natural light. A counterbalance desk lamp takes over after dark.
The L-shaped kid’s room also contains a fun-filled play area, complete with a climbing wall and a kid’s gym.
The guest room is a sophisticated affair. The softness of the beige room decor and beige furniture is complemented by a wall of coordinating curtains that draw edge-to-edge.
Black abstract art makes dark contrast against the beige wall of the guest room.
