Aaron Florian Apartment Building, is an honest answer to a particular urban setting: an irregular plot, the closeness of the opposite building raising privacy issues, a blind wall to a difficult neighbour and an inflection of the street. All these produce an atypical configuration – a building with floors successively recessed, the upper floors providing more light to the narrow street and the exterior spaces directing the views along it.
Within Rouge Nail Bar’s second Bucharest location it was desired to revamp the former aesthetic (created by architect Corvin Cristian) by adapting and preserving a part of its already existing elements while also adding new features.
The location’s concept was taken from its name; NAIL & BAR thus creating a space in which nails wouldn’t be the sole service provided. In this way, a cosy and hip environment was created which can be utilised by patrons with whichever primary use they desire.
BRP Energy is a consulting company, based in Bucharest, Romania. The team is made up of young people with creative ideas. We respected, understood and tried to implement their ideas in the allocated budget.
\”Entourage\” means firstly socializing but also what we want to become and leave behind us into a big marriage with the future.
We must take socializing on different layers as a positive game, first with ourselves. It is a game that helps us not being subordinated to some dogmas, it is a game that should make us expect to learn continuously… Also that we are in a continuous workout in this construction site of our souls .
This project can be seen as a social experiment, along the lines of an emerging community that interacts and develops. The space is focused on people, teams and ideas and it is the result of a collective effort. The design uses custom elements in almost every object, from the design of office desks – glass and perforated metal, to lights that follow the shape of the desks, to the design of glazed surfaces that separate the meeting rooms from the individual offices, to the perforations that guide the eye along a dynamic, uninterrupted line.
The restaurant is located downtown Bucharest on a picturesque street behind Romanian Athenaeum. This area is a symbol representing an ascending period for the Romanian capital. The owner of the place is a well known chef in Romania, named Joseph Hadad, who decided to do a new type of brasserie with food signed by him.
With its 80-indoor seat capacity and other 80 on the open terrace, the place is located at the ground floor of Ethos House office building, but the few climbing stairs give the impression of being at height. Bistro Fratellini is in the middle of a green and quiet area, and is the suitable place for those who want to run away from the city excitement.
Fratelli Social Club is a well-known place to Bucharest residents. In 2015 a change of ambiance was needed. By generating the new design, Mihai Popescu wanted to transform an 8-year old space into a new dimension, without changing its structure. The place consists of a web of lines that compose an approximate sphere whose geometry has been modified, generating an “altered” geodesic dome.
Once you’ve passed through the neutral diffusely lighted hallway, your senses travel to the farther Peru or Chile and the word “fusion”, which was the starting point of the whole projects, is beginning to make sense. The whole signature ambiance is created by intelligently putting together totally different elements. “Eclectic” may be one word to describe it, but “fusion” would be much more appropriate, considering it also referring to the gastronomy area. Hemingway used to believe that eating was an intimate act. Nowadays, the spaces where the meal is served are multi-purposes, many of these being more significant than the primary one, or the feeding purpose itself. In the long run, these spaces have become a significant driver in communication and communion, socialization, escape and leisure, a trigger for all senses, not only for the taste. Think about a space which takes people to the origins of a gastronomic culture, guides them through it and makes them witnesses to its meeting with another. „Fusion cuisine” came with the Europeans’ invasion of America, with the Maoris’ invasion of Spain or the Asians’ migration to South America, mainly in the Peruvian region.

Our proposal’s aim is to make the people an active part of the building’s life, by exploring it, by being seen and by simply coming together, breeding a sense of tolerance, awareness, identity and mutual respect. The building was envisaged as a democratic place for all people and a centerpiece for a regenerated area of the city, transforming the historic building in a vibrant cultural center that highlights the importance of cultural activities for the contemporary time.
