“We are here to witness our generation and acknowledge it; and we are here to sensitively design towards tomorrow.” roah x sinestezia.studio is a creation platform, which embraces design fields such as architecture, interior and product design. The team is based on the study and work experience of a group of young architects, undertaken in Timișoara, Paris, Brussels and Málaga, as well as on their work for design competitions, for which they have been awarded numerous prizes.
These include the Oradea Independentei Riverfront Revitalization 2nd Prize (2020), Transite Gara de Nord Special Mention (2018), Jardin Arad Neighborhood 2nd Prize (2018), Young Architects Award – Architecture Conference & Expo (2016), Salon Prize – 20th Salon of Architecture in Novi Sad (2016) or G.E. Foundation Scholar-Leaders Prize in Budapest (2009-2011).
Project description in English
The proposed concept is based on highlighting the existing qualities of the interior space in a residential building in Timișoara, with large glazed areas. Thus, the open architectural proposal, permeable to the exterior view, is highlighted by a fine contrast of matte, rough textured surfaces and golden metallic accents. Organic forms, subtle chromaticism and vegetal details create a warm interior atmosphere, defined by serenity and finely melodious architectural lyricism.
The interior details are metaphors of places that are personally important to the clients. Thus, the green longitudinal surfaces visually flow, referring to a river by which they grew up. The stones on the shore appear both at floor level, through heavy, massive elements, and at the top, suggested, in an antigravitational way, by organic light fixtures and light, transparent details. The circles integrated into the design point out brass accents, while playing with brushed metallic planes and volumes.
The paintings are also personalized visual representations of the map of the clients’ birthplace, which were graphically reinterpreted.
Through silence and light, while inviting the Bega banks and its lush vegetation into its interior, this lieu becomes a personal oasis, defining a subtly melodic calm.
