OD interior design has remodelled an apartment in Israel, and the main change is in the kitchen. It used to be a separate room. The designers removed the wall between it and the living room, which made space for a large island.
An island that seats six
The island is both an extra prep surface and a second dining area, with room for six people to sit. Around it, the kitchen mixes wood and small bricks with black accents in the pendant lights, the oven and the hardware.
The living room, dining area and kitchen share one floor finish, a cement-based coating, so the social part of the home reads as one large, open space.
Calm rooms and children's rooms
The home office has very light grey walls, a crystal ceiling lamp and sheer white curtains, which keep it calm. In the main bedroom, a mirrored wardrobe makes the room look larger.
The teenage daughter asked for a large bed, a study area, a makeup table and a wardrobe, and got all four. Paint, stickers and art form a pattern on her wall. In the young son's room, the designers added a climbing wall and a rope ladder, with stickers for a Nordic look.
Three bathrooms
All three bathrooms follow a Nordic style, with wood elements set against white, black and grey.
As a general point, a kitchen island with seating on both sides can stand in for a separate dining table in an apartment where floor space is limited.
