THERE IS a sense of calm in the spaces designed by Warsaw-based interior architect and CG artist Julia Bimer. While there is definitely restraint, it doesn’t feel oppressive. Quite the contrary actually⏤the rooms have a lived-in vibe about them, despite the careful editing. There are modern neutrals and much attention paid to textures and materials: concrete, steel, wood, leather, and tile all intermingling beautifully together to create elegant spaces that appear both artful and comfortable at the same time. The interior design style leans toward midcentury modern with its juxtaposing of sleek lines with organic shapes, and use of new materials and methods to reimagine traditional pieces. Though futuristic in aesthetic, the look retains a connection to historic styles.
Interior architecture differs from interior design in that the latter focuses on the furnishing and decoration of an interior space for aesthetics. Interior architecture, on the other hand, focuses on designing building interiors and space planning, taking into account not only aesthetics, but also functionality, safety, building codes, accessibility guidelines, materials, lighting, acoustics, budgets, timelines, etc. Interior designers typically have an undergraduate degree in interior design or a related field. Interior architects go through more extensive training and education, including a professional degree in architecture with a specialisation in interiors. Bimer, who specialises in creating 3D visualisations, graduated from the Faculty of Interior Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw.
