Luxury Apartment Renovation: From Overwhelm to Timeless Elegance

When a busy family decides to start a full apartment renovation, they quickly end up in a maze of decisions, quotes, and contractors. Prodomus stepped in as the architect of the whole experience – from the very first idea to the final styling touches – and transformed a tired apartment into a timeless, functional, and elegant home aligned with their lifestyle.

The Challenge – A Dream Home Without the Chaos


Our clients – a dynamic family with two children and demanding careers – came to Prodomus with a very honest situation:

“We don’t have the time, we don’t know the market, and we are afraid of making expensive mistakes. We want a top-tier result – but we don’t want to live on a construction site for another year.”

The existing apartment was technically functional but visually tired, with no clear interior concept. Storage was insufficient, natural light was not fully used, and the overall feel was dated.

They wanted:

  • more light and air,
  • better space organisation,
  • durable, high-quality materials,
  • refined, discreet luxury,
  • a turnkey apartment renovation with minimal stress.

Their past experiences with contractors had been chaotic: unclear quotes, hidden costs, delays, and no single person taking full responsibility.

So they started looking for one partner who could manage architecture, interior design, material supply, and full project coordination.


Our Approach – Prodomus as the “Command Center” of the Renovation

When Prodomus took over the project, we did one crucial thing first:

we slowed down random decision-making and sped up clarity.


1 Strategic Introductory Consultation

In our first meeting, we did not start with tiles or paint colours. We started with one key question:

“How do you want to live in this apartment every day?”

Together we explored:

  • the family’s lifestyle and daily routines,
  • how they use the space now and how they’d love to use it,
  • long-term plans for the property (own use, investment, potential rental),
  • their aesthetic preferences and also their fears.

2 In-Depth Analysis of the Existing Space

Next, we conducted a detailed analysis of:

  • the floor plan,
  • existing installations,
  • natural light and views,
  • options for layout changes,
  • the potential to create a more open, airy, and logical space.

Our goal was not just a cosmetic update, but a complete apartment renovation fully tailored to how the family actually lives.

3 A Clear Investment Framework

Together with the clients we:

  • set a realistic budget range,
  • defined priorities,
  • decided where to invest more (floors, bathrooms, kitchen, lighting, etc.),
  • and identified where we could optimise smartly without sacrificing quality or aesthetics.


The Solution – From Isolated Decisions to a Curated Approach

Instead of visiting endless showrooms and making disconnected choices, the clients had Prodomus as a strategic partner and curator of the entire interior.

1 Architecture & Interior Design Concept

We developed a clear, cohesive concept where:

  • lines, materials, and colours repeat throughout the home,
  • spaces flow harmoniously from the living room to the bedroom,
  • each room has its own character but speaks the same design language.

The result is a timeless interior, not driven by short-lived trends, but by elegant, long-term design.

2 Layered Lighting Design

In any high-end apartment renovation, lighting is a key component.

Instead of one central ceiling light per room, we created:

  • ambient lighting,
  • accent and decorative lighting,
  • task lighting in the kitchen, bathroom, and work areas.

This way, the apartment is:

  • bright and clear during the day,
  • warm, intimate, and relaxing in the evening.

3 Smart Storage & Clean Lines

With custom-made built-in furniture and clever planning, we added:

  • tailored wardrobes,
  • integrated pantry and storage in the kitchen,
  • hidden technical elements,
  • discreet storage that keeps the visual lines clean.

The family now enjoys a home where everything has its place, and visual noise is dramatically reduced.

4 Turnkey Supply of Materials and Furnishings

As Prodomus, we work directly with top European manufacturers of:

  • tiles and ceramics,
  • bathroom and sanitary equipment,
  • lighting,
  • furniture and flooring,
  • and other high-end finishes.

Our clients had one point of contact for:

  • expert product selection,
  • ordering and logistics,
  • coordination of deliveries with the construction schedule,
  • quality control.


The Process – Less Stress, More Clarity

In a full-service apartment renovation, the process is as important as the final images.

Our guiding principle:

No unpleasant surprises – only pleasant ones.

We ensured:

  • a clear timeline with milestones (demolition, installations, finishes, handover),
  • regular updates: what is happening this week, what is coming next,
  • coordination of all contractors so the clients did not have to manage crises,
  • decision-making based on curated options, not rushed showroom marathons.


The Result – A Home They Love Coming Back To

When the family walked into the finished space for the first time, they said the sentence that means the most to us:

“This is exactly what we had in mind – we just never could have achieved it on our own.”

What changed:

  • the apartment became bright, airy, and logically organised,
  • the quality of materials and details is visible and tangible in every touch,
  • visual clutter disappeared – every element has a purpose,
  • the home now feels like a sanctuary, not a never-ending project.

For us, the greatest compliment is that clients no longer see us only as architects or suppliers, but as their long-term strategic partners for all future real estate projects.
