From the very first meeting with the family, a mutual click was created that turned into a huge love that continues to this day. "The story of getting to know this special family moves me every time.
Already at the first meeting with this lovely couple, I learned that the husband is very ill and that they purchased the new property in the hope that the change and the move will do him good."
"I decided at the time to plan the apartment according to the theory of Feng Shui and create an environment for the clients with good energy, joy and harmony. We checked where the health area was located according to the analysis of the property map and decided that this location would become the central space in the house. The move and the changes made to the property did indeed work wonders and the owner of the property was blessed with happy years and To see girls who got married and grandchildren who were born," she says.
About two and a half years ago, the husband passed away and the sadness was very great.
Meanwhile, their youngest daughter grew up and left the nest and the owner of the apartment found a new relationship and a few months ago Shir was called to a new task.

"I was asked to design a six-room apartment for a couple in Chapter B in their 60s. The owner of the house, an educator and business woman with fine taste and the spouse a senior in the municipal sector."
The clients preferred to stay near their children and grandchildren and at the same time wanted to feel like they had moved into a new home without having to move.
The central space of the apartment is of utmost importance for the homeowners because they like to host the extended family, grandchildren and friends on a weekly basis.
In order to create spacious spaces, a lot of thought was put into the redesign of the apartment.
After a massive renovation - the apartment was re-divided into 4 rooms (instead of 6 rooms originally).
Through a smart planning of the spaces and a combination of 3 hidden doors that do not attract attention and create a clean and uniform appearance, the central space was expanded and became larger, open and spacious.
The apartment was designed in a luxurious modern style and turned into an elegant, cozy and relaxing boutique apartment.
It incorporated many natural materials of the highest standards: textiles, leather, glass, marble and wood.
To complete the look, a palette rich in off-white, coffee miracle, white, light gray, graphite, dark chocolate brown and gold was chosen.
The entire apartment is designed in an understated luxury line, which is expressed in fine natural oak parquet, elite carpentry, furniture specially imported from Italy, precise wall coverings that incorporate hidden doors, decorative accessories and many storage spaces.

The front door to the house opens into the space of the dining area, which is wrapped in a wooden wall paneling and wooden bars combined with decorative lighting that completes the WOW effect at the entrance.
Rounded lighting fixtures, of different sizes, combined with brass and rattan illuminate the wooden wall and create a luxurious look in the space.
"The wall of the dining area is integrated into its continuation with a hidden door behind which are located the guest services that have received an impressive design. To create versatile lighting and design continuity for covering the wooden walls, we illuminated the space with the help of minimalistic magnetic accumulation strips with a tight black frame," says Midan.
The dining area is large and spacious and in the center stands a large luxury glass table ordered from Italy.
Around it are comfortable chairs with a modern and light design in a shade of dark chocolate, above the table is a subtle and minimalistic brass lighting fixture focused on lighting the table.
To create an atmosphere and introduce color into the space, a colorful picture by a French artist named BAPTISTE L'EONNE was chosen.
In the guest bathroom, the walls and flooring are covered with REZINA ITALIA luxury epoxy covering material in a dark chocolate shade.

The TV wall was designed with 6-meter-long carpentry that provides an answer to several important functions.
To create a complete separation between the central space and the master suite, a wide hidden door was incorporated in the zero line, behind which the master suite is located.
"A television was integrated into the wall in a uniform line with the woodwork, below it we created a slotted niche in a graphite shade at the height of the fireplace glass to create a continuous continuation of the wall and hide the sound unit. To hide the sound and preserve the design look, we created a black mesh fabric element that simulates a long end-to-end speaker that allows for optimal sound quality. We placed the fireplace unit At the edge of the wall, which is covered with a travertine-look porcelain surface, the wall also incorporates a graphite-colored open shelving unit and another hidden storage unit for stacked chairs for entertaining," Meaden explains.
"The wall is designed with straight modern lines. We chose the white color for the carpentry wall to create a relaxing and balanced space that will blend in with the rest of the house's colors and add warmth and harmony to the space. In the living room we chose super luxurious and elegant furniture that will all be imported from Italy. A soft and luxurious modular sofa in a cream shade with a modern look. The fabric chosen has A rich look, repels stains and liquids, especially suitable for grandchildren staying at home. Next to a coffee-colored leather armchair.

The kitchen consists of two parallel parts.
The first part - a continuous carpentry wall that integrates with the front door, a showcase and a hidden door to the accommodation unit.
The second part - an island 4 meters long.
"For covering the fronts of the kitchen, we chose to use champagne-colored aluminum fronts that change color every hour of the day, create interest in the space and give the kitchen a different appearance day and night. During the day, the kitchen looks bright and in the evening a twist is created with a more dramatic and luxurious look," says the designer.
The kitchen was designed and designed as two parallels, on one side there are floor-to-ceiling cabinets containing three refrigerators in line zero, an oven and an integral microwave, and between them is a niche covered in black marble that is used for a coffee stand and a work surface next to the ovens.
Parallel to the wall is a huge spectacular island with a classic and elegant appearance.
The four meter long island is clad in black natural granite marble with white veins and a brushed texture.
The island covering was designed with a cut-off detail along the entire length of the island that creates a feeling that the island is floating in space.
The island serves as a large work surface that includes an induction stove, a sink and additional storage spaces.
