This amazing Bila Wabi Sabi apartment located in Kyiv Ukraine (hope it still exist, as many buildings are completely destroyed) was created by Serhii Makhno Architects. Scandinavian style kitchen with statement ceiling lamps- umbrellas.
The character of the home is formed by things. Very unique, handmade, entirely original because plenty of them Serhii Makhno creats by themselves.
Many other very inspiring apartments also designed by Serhii Makhno. Lighting and whole idea of the first one Odesa House remids of some kind of windy desert with incredible unique lamps and accessories.
