paint coats selected walls turning a single room
into a statement
sign and I had an idea to use it in two different ways. In
the hall I used grass print paper, which is a playful idea
to interact with the green grass on the terrace that is visible
from the living room. I use this grass color throughout
the apartment as the fourth color element, which brings
the outside greenery - inside.”
The hallway isn’t the only place that takes advantage
of this trend. In the master bedroom an entire wall is
draped with the view of Paris at night as seen from the
Eiffel Tower. “I simply love Paris and wanted to fall asleep
while watching Paris by night. A friend of mine, graphic
designer Maja Preglej designed it and produced it for
me in Zagreb.”
While Modern can sometimes translate into cold and
austere, here modern lines come together with plush
fabrics, warm colors and playful touches. In the dining
area a round, black-glass and stainless steel table rests
above a circular, 70’s inspired shag rug. On the kitchen
windowsill sits a plaster bust of Adonis beside a limited
edition, glass mosaic Absolute Vodka bottle and coffee
grinder. Rather than using a traditional marble or linoleum
counter-top, David used a smooth, temperature
and pressure resistant material that is photograph of the
Flokati carpet which find it’s place below black glass
table. A large scale, fine art painting by Željko Borčić
commands an entire wall in the living room. “When
viewing large works on canvass I always felt a monumental,
awe-struck feeling within me. I wanted to create
that feeling here, too. It’s not just a painting on the
Dream home

wall, it catches your eyes instantly with its size, strength
and unique, chaotic universe.” The guest room, which
also functions as a home office, has three smaller works
by the same artist. However, David’s approach to interior
design doesn’t limit itself to mere style alone. “I
have traveled a lot around the world and have brought
back many things – my own unique memorabilia. Some
pieces belonged to my late Grandmother who was
very important to me, so these also make up much of
the atmosphere. I like to be surrounded with personal
memorabilia to remember the people, places and important
lessons in life.”
But there is more to this apartment than just the look
and feel, it’s also functionally designed and equipped
with the latest gadgets. “It’s the so-called ‘intelligent
house,’ ” boasts David. You can control the light and
shades from one display-box in the living room, program
the heating in the bathroom floor, or turn on the
air-conditioner with a text message from your mobile
phone. Even the fireplace is electrical and is activated
by remote controle..
Combining art, comfort and function is second nature
to David, owing much of his eye to his fastpaced career.
“I can say that working in such a competitive industry,
where just a little accent can make a world of difference,
has sharpened my senses and attention towards
graphic, industrial and interior design.” Deservedly, after
a hard day’s work David can come home and rest
assured that all the elements are in the right place.
