ÉNIGME RESIDENCE

Énigme has been created for people following current trends, combining the features of a classic residence with modern finishing materials.

Its spatial arrangement merges sophisticated architecture with functional solutions that prove useful in everyday life. The ground floor with a usable area of 180 m² is designed as an open day zone with a spacious living room and a dining room and has a planned space for the cozy fireplace. High furniture, a kitchen island, and a breakfast corner belong to the partially separated kitchen with an area of nearly 30 m². It has a direct exit to the covered outdoor terrace, an ideal place for family breakfasts, whose layout allows for a variety of arrangements. It is also adjacent to a several square meter pantry that leads to a garage. Thanks to that, coming back from shopping, you will be able to conveniently unpack all the bought items using the passage through the boiler room.

There is also a 25 square meter study room on the ground floor, which can act as a home library open to the living room or as a completely separated study room with an independent entrance from the hallway. The room can also be arranged as an extra guest room, inserting a foldable bed.

The residence also has a vestibule separated by French doors with a handy outerwear wardrobe and a seat, as well as an open two-story space that perfectly connects the entrance with the day zone. Ergonomically designed stairs to the first floor look presentable and are comfortable in everyday use. A large window in this place provides excellent lighting, and a sizeable landing allows for an additional decorative composition. The space under the stairs can be adapted entirely for a wardrobe or a wardrobe with a convenient laundry room. A double garage with auxiliary storage and a boiler room covers another 60m2 of technical space, giving 240 m² of the ground floor when added to the remaining usable space.

The first floor is 170 m² and consists of three bedrooms with wardrobes or spacious built-in wardrobes. At their disposal, there is a large and fully equipped bathroom with a shower, a bathtub, and a small sauna. There is also an alternative variant with a several square meter laundry for those who prefer having it upstairs.

The master bedroom in this project is a separated relaxation zone with an easy-to-arrange bedroom, whose central point constitutes a large window with an arched header. It also holds a wardrobe and a bathroom with double sinks, a bathtub, and a shower. Adjacent to the main bedroom, there is a 20 square meter elevated terrace. Depending on the exposure to the directions of the world, it can be a great spot to enjoy the sunsets or sunbathing.

FINISHING MATERIALS

The Énigme residence design has no basement and has been designed in traditional brick technology. Structural tiles or silicate blocks can serve as the base material. Depending on investors’ preferences, mineral wool or high-quality polystyrene can be used for insulation. The latter one will constitute a much better basis for a partial clinker tile facade as well for fine-grained plaster.

The outer facade material used in the Énigme residence design is mainly classic red clinker tile interspersed with surfaces that have light mineral plaster finishing. The plaster has also been used as the final layer on other stucco elements, such as a door portal, window casings, and a crowning cornice. One of the key characteristics of the building, a unique, multi-hipped roof with a 45-degree pitch, has been covered with a titanium zinc-coated sheet in very dark anthracite. The roof and all flashings have been made in the standing seam technology, which looks exceptionally attractive.

Other elements that emphasize the residential character include sublime, yet simply formed sconces, a minimalist railing, and a wooden entrance door with sidelites. Wooden, warm gray shutters accentuate the industrial character of the building constituting its stylish decoration. Finally, the design includes aesthetic, rectangular gutters, and partially hidden fall pipes to achieve a minimalist effect.

Designing this residence, we truly wanted it to have a cozy place, where you could spend time outside. We came up with the idea of a covered elevated terrace with a direct connection to the kitchen. This way, you can use it much more conveniently. Moreover, to achieve a perfect balance with the immediate surroundings, we went a step further and created a relaxation zone with a fireplace outside. Our proposal includes a comfortable rest with numerous pillows and rugs that will make your quality time even more pleasurable and memorable. The warmth of the fireplace will let you enjoy this place both in early spring and late autumn. The summertime, on the other hand, will be ideal for hosting parties for family and close friends.
