Olive House
A compact Dhanmondi residence where flexible rooms and generous storage make every square metre count.
Project Overview
The brief was to make a small apartment work for a young family and two home offices. Our response focused on flexible rooms and built-in storage, creating a home that changes through the day.

01
The Brief
Two parents working from home, a toddler and visiting grandparents all needed space in 145 square metres. The apartment had good light but awkward room sizes. The family wanted to avoid moving and asked us to make the most of what they had.
02
The Concept
We designed rooms that change use. A study becomes a guest room with a fold-down bed, and the dining table extends into a shared desk. Pale olive tones and soft oak give the home a calm, unified look.
03
Materials & Details
Oak veneer joinery, olive-green lacquer, linen upholstery and cork floors in the children’s room bring warmth and softness. Storage runs under windows and above doors.
04
The Result
The family gained two workspaces and a guest room without adding a square metre. The home feels open in the morning and settled at night.
