A growing number of people want to turn their houses into unique places that will bring joy to their hearts and be pleasing to the eye.

![EAST WEST Apartment, By Loft Buro @loft_buro_ua [IG]
Loft Buro: The power of family traditions combined with the creative power of architects is the lifeblood of an atmospheric home. The apartment with a panoramic view of the right bank of Kyiv was created with a recognizable, bright color in the "colonial loft" style - a mix of classic European architectural traditions with hot ethnic and vintage elements from the cultures of the East. The entrance group is green and blue, symbolizing the activity inherent in the house owners in Eastern cultures. The vigor of the color is further emphasized by the wall relief, which has long been our trademark.
