house is located in Tel Mond, on the top floor of a 3-year-old boutique building Floors, inhabited by a couple of parents whose children have already left home, but who themselves are not yet retired.
After purchasing the apartment, the couple was looking for someone who could create an updated space for them that would be adapted exactly to their new needs, and for the benefit of this process, the services of designer Inbal Berkovich were hired.

"I joined the process even before the apartment was built, so I could design it according to the tenants' needs - to have a large, comfortable and pampering central space, containing a kitchen, living room and dining area, while providing solutions for storing a variety of items. The power of space and it will give the right connection to everything around it. "
The design style that Berkowitz chose for the apartment is modern, clean and meticulous and yet cozy and embracing.
It combined warm and cold colors, rugs and soft curtains alongside iron, glass and porcelain granite, to achieve an end result that has the right balance.
Modern, clean, meticulous, but also cozy and embracing.

The engineer approved moving the structural pillar and the plan to an open and spacious public space was implemented.

However, although work on the apartment began in the construction stages, which usually simplifies matters, the road was not without its challenges.
"At the beginning of the design, there was a construction pillar that interfered with the open design we wanted for the living room. Because it is a small boutique building, we got permission from the engineer to move it, which is not at all typical of saturated construction," Berkowitz recalls.
They wanted a spacious suite with plenty of storage - and got it.

The couple received the key to the apartment just before the first corona closure, which caused the schedules to change slightly - professionals could not arrive due to entering the isolation, which sometimes created a chain of delays.
But fortunately, the challenges amounted to that and the project came to fruition.
The requests that were most important to the homeowners in the design of the apartment were: a pampering central space, a large and comfortable kitchen, a designed living room and a spacious master suite that will contain plenty of storage space.

The colors chosen for the design plan are mostly monochromatic and range from white, gray, brown and black.
Examples of this color palette can be seen in the upholstery fabrics of the sofa and dining chairs and in the choice of curtains.
The shot of color comes from the direction of two armchairs in the living room, upholstered in a bright rusty orange hue, which is also one of the trendy colors of the past year where we have seen a lot of use of earth tones.

The kitchen was fitted with tall cabinets clad in chocolate veneer painted to a chocolate hue, the island cabinets were painted in a contrasting white color, topped with a white porcelain-like porcelain granite, through which delicate gray tendons pass.

In the dining area is a table with a huge plate of black glass with a matte look, and the living room tables echo a cohesive look drawn from the connection between the dining area and the kitchen: with a brass frame and surfaces of matte glass and porcelain granite.
For the bathrooms, porcelain granite flooring was chosen in shades of gray - light gray tiles with a concrete look for the floor and walls in the master unit's bathroom, while in the guest bathroom - dark and elegant gray tiles cover the walls.
