A renewed exterior for a landmark in transition.

The project aims to give the building a new, contrasting identity that reflects its future function. In Sofia, an early-2000s landmark is being transformed through a complete renovation and a redefinition of its architectural expression.

During the design process, we were inspired by the exposed brick that originally defined the space. This led to the development of a unified, warm-toned façade, whose presence is further emphasised through its contrast with the exposed structural elements within the interior.

The façade composition highlights the horizontal lines of the urban silhouette, while vertical fins introduce a counterpoint, serving both as sun-shading elements and as a means of providing separation and privacy for the individual units.
At the top, a new metal structure is introduced, forming two penthouses with panoramic 360° views over the city skyline and completing the vertical composition.

A transformation defined by façade, proportion, and urban presence.

Reconstruction as a dialogue between past and future.

In Sofia, a landmark building from the early 2000s is undergoing a complete transformation, reimagined as a boutique apart-hotel that redefines its role within the urban fabric.

The proposal is driven by contrast.�An existing structure, once defined by exposed brick, becomes the starting point for a new architectural identity. This material memory evolves into a unified warm-toned façade, establishing a distinct presence while maintaining a subtle connection to the building’s origins.

At the same time, the interior reveals the structure in its raw form, creating a layered dialogue between exterior refinement and interior expression.

The composition of the façade responds directly to the city. Horizontal lines extend the rhythm of the surrounding skyline, while vertical fins introduce a counterpoint, filtering sunlight, enhancing privacy, and giving depth and scale to each residential unit.

The program introduces a new way of inhabiting the building: A ground-floor bistro activates the street level, 26 individual residential units shape the core of the project, while a newly added metal rooftop structure forms two penthouses with panoramic 360° views across the city.

Rather than replacing the existing, the project builds on it - transforming it into a contemporary architectural statement defined by material, contrast, and future use.

Reconstruction as a dialogue between past and future.

Inside this early-2000s building in Sofia, the transformation continues, shifting from exterior identity into a spatial experience defined by contrast and material honesty.

Exposed structural elements remain visible, shaping the character of the interiors and creating a dialogue between raw construction and refined design.

Warm-toned surfaces and carefully considered material transitions bring cohesion to the space, echoing the language established by the façade while creating a more intimate, human-scaled atmosphere.

The residential units are designed with clarity and openness, while each detail supports light, proportion, and function, balancing comfort with architectural expression.

The project includes 26 individual residential units, a ground-floor bistro, and penthouses at the top with panoramic 360° views over the city. From exterior to interior, one continuous transformation.

This is not just a renovation.

In Sofia, a landmark early-2000s building is being transformed into a boutique apart-hotel, reshaping both its identity and its presence in the city.

Inspired by the original exposed brick, the design develops a warm-toned façade defined by strong horizontal lines and vertical fins that shape light, shade, and privacy.

Inside, the structure remains visible, creating a contrast between raw interior expression and a refined exterior envelope.

The transformation introduces a ground-floor bistro, 26 residential units, and a new rooftop metal extension forming two penthouses with panoramic 360° views.

A new layer. A new identity. The same structure.

Elegance Without Extravagance

This duplex apartment in the Eurovea II complex, designed for our long-standing client, departs from all the previous projects we have created together.

The apartment is functionally divided into two zones. The daytime living area is located on the upper floor, while the night zone is situated on the lower level. The layout creates a sense of lightness and openness, with spacious stairs connecting the open areas.

The interior is designed in a contemporary metropolitan style, free of design gestures and distracting elements. One of the client’s main requests was the use of travertine flooring. This natural stone became the central element around which the entire story of the interior unfolds. The travertine is complemented by contrasting elements in the form of simple shapes yet bold colour accents. The dynamic composition of the interior creates a subtle pulse without overwhelming the space. Travertine and black velvet become the “main protagonists,” dividing the space and forming the structural backbone of the interior. This framework is complemented by visually and materially simple elements, with a strong emphasis on the quality of the materials used.

Travertine is present throughout the apartment, whether in the form of plaster finishes in warm creamy tones or as natural stone flooring. Textured wall cladding with soft curved lines enhances the sculptural quality of the stone surfaces. Black velvet is incorporated into the interior as the flowing ribbon of the staircase, as black ceiling soffits, and within the spaces of the main bedroom with its bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. The staircase, often considered a secondary space, plays the role of a striking design feature in this project. Its minimalist lines combined with an intense black colour, complemented by bold suspended lighting fixtures, give this space character and elegance.

Travertine as the foundation. Calm as the atmosphere.

This duplex apartment in Eurovea, Bratislava by cakov+partners is built around the quiet strength of natural stone and deep black accents. Hidden within the lower level, a private sauna introduces a moment of stillness — bringing wellness and retreat into everyday living.

How important is material and atmosphere in the way we experience a home?
