The moment when you see the result of your work.

Not the finishing touches.
Not the moment when the renovation team leaves and the last traces of dust are wiped from the shelves.

But the moment when you know that you have taught your client how to understand her own home. You have shown her how space works. Helped her discover, name and choose her favourite colours. Arrange all the elements. Recognise what truly suits her.

And then, with each new day spent living in this home, she already knows:
- which accessories to choose,
- what to combine with her interior and how,
- which elements will complete the composition and which are better left out to avoid creating visual dissonance.

Zuzanna no longer buys random things.
She does not waste time wondering what will work well together.
She no longer gets lost among endless possibilities. Pages and pages of online shops. The noise of ever-changing trends.

She makes conscious decisions.
And she is happy.

Especially when she hangs her dream curtains in the living room - plain, in a warm honey-yellow shade. And contrasts them with a second pair: black and white, with a beautiful linear pattern.
Then chooses a plant pot to complement them.

Because a well-tailored space is one that its inhabitants and users can continue to shape consciously by adding the right elements.

Would you be brave enough to use these colors in your kitchen … as a combination of powder pink and warm beige?

It was meant to be a catchy question.

Because many people believe that you need to be brave to use color and to surround yourself with it in your own home. And perhaps, to some extent, you do.

But from my point of view, the most important questions are:
Do you know your colors?
Do you know how they shape your space?
Do you know which colors truly feel like yours?
And do you know how to choose the right ones and combine them so that they work well together?

When we first started our cooperation with Zuzanna, she wasn’t sure whether she was “allowed” to use powder pink in her home or not.
After our consultations, she was delighted to discover that her dream color could become part of her interior. Of course, when used in the right combination.

For her final kitchen look, she chose powder pink paired with warm beige cabinetry.
With consciousness.

Because when it comes to color, it isn’t really only about being brave.
It is about consciously choosing what works best for you and your space.

When the sun travels lower and lower above the horizon, and its rays stretch the shadows of the trees almost endlessly …

The leaves are still shimmering green, but the fields filled with sunflowers have already disappeared. Here and there, the smell of smoke lingers in the air, while mist settles over the fields in the evenings. The days are becoming shorter, and the arrival of autumn can be felt more clearly in the background …

This is when my calendar year begins.
Not on 1 January.
In September. On 1 September, to be precise.

Before the landscape fills with all the colours of autumn, I open a new planner.
And there is a reason why I am writing about landscapes, leaves and colours. The planner that will accompany me for the next twelve months is not simply the first one I happen to pick up from a shelf.

I choose one whose layout works for me on the inside and whose colour speaks to me from the outside.

And, in fact, it is the colour that becomes the deciding factor. After all, for the next 365 days, I will be reaching for it, leafing through its written pages, ticking off what has been done and highlighting what still needs to be completed.

The one I had two years ago was brick red. Warm, energetic and full of enthusiasm. It carried the symbolism of action, growth and openness.

Last year’s came in olive green. A calmer colour, reflecting harmony, balance and regeneration.

And now, much to my own surprise …
In came powder pink.
No lengthy consideration. A quick decision. And not because my blusher happened to crumble into dust just before I bought it.

This colour spoke to me in an instant.
Subtle. Gentle. Calm. Associated with care and emotional warmth.
Different from all the ones that came before.

Because the year ahead will also be different from all those that came before.

And when I placed my last three planners next to one another, I realised that their colours had definitely not been accidental. Each one perfectly reflected a different chapter of my life.

Brick red.
Olive green.
Powder pink.

And what colour will your year be?

13/09/2026

White and black.

A classic contrast. Most evident when expressed through colour.
Emphasised by simple lines and smooth surfaces. Distinctive, yet not austere. Without creating a sense of coldness.

Here, it is softened by a warm beige-grey tone, a subtle texture and the natural, flowing grain of the wood.

Contrast in an interior does not always need to be softened with colour. Sometimes a different texture, the play of light and the introduction of another material change both the composition and the way we perceive the space.

Those fleeting moments in your own home …

When the morning sun filters into the interior.
Reaches into its most unexpected corners.
Creates the unique atmosphere of the place, painting fleeting images with light, shadow and contrast.

An invisible part of my work that many people do not even know exists.

One of the pre-design stages of a project is an inventory of the existing vegetation on the site.

You go to the site. Spend a few hours outdoors. And to anyone watching, it may look as if you are simply taking a walk through a garden or forest during your working hours.

But there is quite a lot to do.

You move from one tree to another. Measure the trunk circumference. Mark each tree on the plan and check whether it has already been recorded on the current site survey prepared by a land surveyor. Assign it a number. Identify the species. Assess its condition. Take photographs. And make notes.

You look closely at the leaves or needles. Examine the bark. Observe the shape of the crown and the overall form of the tree. Sometimes, you also look down at the ground, searching for cones, fallen leaves, fruits or flowers that may help you identify the species.

When the project involves an existing building, you also measure the distance between each tree and the building. You check whether any of them are growing too close, pose a safety risk or have roots that could affect the foundations.

All this information helps determine which trees can be preserved, which require maintenance and which may conflict with the planned work. It can also influence the position of a new building, paths, parking spaces or underground services.

This is what one of my recent working days looked like.

A day away from the computer.
A day spent outdoors.
A day in the field.

From the photos, it could easily be mistaken for a day off, couldn’t it?

27/08/2026

Not every working day is spent in front of a computer when you’re an architect.
Some days look completely different …

Like the day when you pop in for an architects’ breakfast.
For networking. Chatting. Meeting fellow architects.

Attend a GROHE product presentation.
For the latest industry updates.

And take a few pictures of the bathroom displays at the ELEMENTS Poznań showroom.
For inspiration.

Cobalt. Dots. Circles. Peacock eyes.

Hand-stamped cups, plates, coasters and jugs, decorated using a technique dating back to 1882, are no longer just elements of Bolesławiec pottery. They have become a distinctive hallmark of the city - and within the city itself.

The characteristic patterns, colours and the ceramic material itself have been transferred onto elements of street furniture and urban details, highlighting the spirit, tradition and history of the place, also through contemporary interpretations.

🧿The ones I find most captivating are the cobalt, blue and white birds, looking almost like an expressive study filled with dynamic, bold lines, drawn across the ceramic tiles that decorate the entrance to the park /author: Mateusz Grobelny/.
🧿A ceramic dress with the characteristic pattern of white dots against a cobalt background welcomes visitors to the Muzeum Ceramiki w Bolesławcu, while the same stamped pattern extends across the vaulted ceiling.
🧿A bench standing in the Market Square is finished with ceramic tiles in a variety of patterns, creating an effect reminiscent of a shimmering surface of water /author: Mateusz Grobelny/.

In Bolesławiec, patterns once associated mainly with tableware have ceased to be merely decoration on everyday objects. They have begun to strongly identify the urban space itself, showing how a local tradition can function not only as a souvenir or an expression of craftsmanship, but also as a consciously created language of place - becoming a living part of the city’s identity.

PS. I have my own pieces of Bolesławiec pottery at home too, including ones I hand-stamped myself at the Living Museum of Ceramics.

🧿And you? Have you ever seen Bolesławiec pottery?🧿

Have you ever wandered around at midnight looking for the darkest place?

Far from urban areas. Far from any lights. A place so dark that you can’t even see your own hand in front of you?

Where all you can hear around you is the sound of the night. The endless chirping coming from somewhere in the fields. And you have no idea what kind of animal might suddenly appear from the woods, from the fields, or just beneath your feet. And you stand just in the middle of this darkness.

Sounds crazy, doesn’t it?

There’s a tradition in my family. Every year, on the 12th of August, we jump into the car to find the best place to gaze at the starry sky. To watch the Perseid meteor shower. And count how many we can spot.

Surrounded by darkness. And by a dome of clear, starry sky. If the stars are visible, of course.

Yesterday, the conditions were just perfect. The Moon was in its new moon phase, leaving the sky exceptionally dark. After a spectacular solar eclipse.

So we did our night wandering again.

We drove away from the city lights. Into the darkness. To look up. To listen to the music of the darkness. To experience the moment.

And perhaps that is part of what makes this experience so extraordinary - sometimes, you need to see less to experience more. You need to change your surroundings to perceive more. You need to stop for a while and listen, to catch the right moments.

Did you look up at the sky last night?

“I thought your home would be like a museum.” Ania once told me when she finally came to visit us.

It had taken her almost a year to come over for coffee. She postponed it. Put it off. Changed the date. Until finally, she came.

She sat down. Silently, she began looking around. She took a sip of coffee and said:
- I feel really good here …

A moment later, she asked:
- Do you know why I didn’t come before? …

I listened, intrigued.
- Because I was nervous - Ania continued. - I was convinced I’d be sitting here on edge the whole time - she added quietly. - That your home would be like a museum, where I’d be afraid of breaking or damaging something.

My eyes widened in surprise.

- I thought it would look like something straight out of a catalogue. Stiff and unapproachable … - She took a deep breath and continued. - Because I thought that was how architects lived. But I feel really good here, and now it seems strange that I ever thought otherwise.

At that moment, I suddenly thought of what visiting museums felt like back in the 1980s.
You would pull huge, grey felt slippers over your shoes. You’d polish the wooden floor as you walked. And most of your attention went into making sure you didn’t slip. The exhibition itself somehow remained in the background.

I smiled.

- You can’t live as if you’re in a museum when you have small children. And our home was created for us. So that we can use it in the best possible way, every single day.

Ania’s words are still with me.

Especially because she wasn’t the only one to think this way.
On the one hand, they reveal how people imagine architects’ homes.
On the other, they reveal the apprehension of confronting a space created by someone who designs spaces professionally.
And then there are the questions that keep coming back:
Should a space look good?
Should it be functional?
Should it make us feel good?

I don’t choose between one, the other or the third.

A space should respond to the needs of the people who live in it. It should serve them. Give them comfort. Freedom. Joy. And allow them to experience everyday life in a way that feels good.

For more than 20 years, I haven’t designed homes and interiors for photographs, changing trends or unrealistic visualisations.

I’ve designed them for real, individual people. Individually.

So they can feel good in their spaces.

At ease. Natural. Comfortable.

So that every day, their own home gives them the feeling:
“This is my place.”
