Genova Apartment Reorganized Like a Game of Tetris

A flexible living space created through color and geometry.

1Project Goal

bump studio transformed a fragmented apartment in Genova into a flexible living space using color, geometry, and custom-designed elements. The existing layout was reorganized with interconnected spaces and a central yellow volume.

2The Role of Yellow

The yellow volume separates the living area from the kitchen while integrating storage functions and concealing access to private areas. Its design creates a harmonious connection with the existing walls.

3Kitchen Design

The kitchen is defined by a sodalite blue island, which incorporates functional elements like the sink and dishwasher. Its reflective surface interacts with natural light, adding depth to the compact space.

4Bedroom and Bathroom

The master bedroom features an ottanio green wardrobe and an integrated headboard surface. In the bathroom, irregular geometry is balanced with niches and horizontal resin surfaces.

5Flexible Spaces

Curtains and open shelving systems allow the perception of spaces to change throughout the day. This flexibility makes the apartment adaptable to different needs.

6Outcome and Impact

The Tetris project transformed a complex apartment into a coherent architectural system. Through color, custom furniture, and spatial interventions, a contemporary living environment was created.
