Modern minimalism meets soft elegance in this 70-square-meter urban apartment in Valencia, Spain. Visualized by Bodes Studio, the interior decor is a rich meld of chic peach and earthy tones intermingled with dark and moody black and gray backdrops. An open-plan living space with a formal dining area and a well-sized kitchen makes way for interactive family time or entertaining more guests. Panel molding instills classic charm, while contemporary light installations make modern statements. Two double bedrooms and two bathrooms make a stylish continuation of the earthy color scheme, while the shared kids’ room and kids’ bathroom break free with a refreshing splash of blue.
A modular sofa arrangement creates an island of comfort in the center of the open-plan living space. The split brown and black composition divides the bulk of the sofa and creates visual interest. A light gray area rug unites the dual-tone stretch.
Sliding glass doors divide the lounge area from a kitchen diner. The glazed doors can be closed to keep out cooking smells and sounds or opened up to provide a free-flowing social space. A rattan hanging chair nestles in the corner of the room to create a cozy reading nook.
One side of the sofa looks upon the open-plan kitchen dining space, making it an ideal hangout during dinner prep. The opposite side of the couch focuses on the living room TV. Peach and earthy brown tones bring warmth to the large social space, while dark charcoal and black elements build drama.
Ribbons of LED light loop down from the living room ceiling, creating an artistic installation. A projector is mounted to the roof to pair with the retractable projection screen above the TV.
