KITCHEN APARTMENT INTERIOR DESIGN IDEAS
5s is a japanese methodology roughly translate to the inspiration for this design camefrom the clients and they're interest in minimalism and exploring ways to live with less and be very ingrained in their locale and in the local amenity this is a 24 square meter space originally the kitchen is where thesleeping nook is now so the kitchen was moved out of that space so what we did is we split the kitchen into two wings a wet kitchen which has the sink the hotwater unit and some storage underneath
