Inspired by the character of a fine art-loving homeowner and realized by the creative vision of Between The Walls, this Ukrainian home features a colorful meld of Provençal and Scandi twists. The 94-square-meter home in Kyiv is a white canvas, splashed with bold patterns and mixed textures. No element corresponds to the next, yet there is visual harmony that delights and charms. Adding to the welcoming eclectic allure is an eco-friendly essence, which emphasizes the homeowner's commitment to sustainable living. You’ll find rock door handles and a tropical tree mural in the bedroom, while an unusual bathroom thrills with a playful pink and terrazzo scheme. Floor plans are included at the end of the tour.
