On the 12th August 2011 after 3 long years of waiting finally St Johns Park and Crown FM welcome's the first owner and Guest, Rachel and Phil to use, YES USE the complex and Rachel's apartment, Crown Interiors delivered on Rachel's dream apartment. Having worked hand in hand with Rachel, and off a great specification she had meticulously prepared, Crown Interiors derived the perfect design and proposal which together we fine turned to be the project and apartment it is now, and now finally Rachel, her family and friends can enjoy.
Looking good feeling good, and the Sun shone all weekend. Doesn't get much better than that, Summer in Bansko has so much to offer and with St Johns Park wonderfully located on the edge of the Pirin National park, on the Tuesday we had to kick them out as they did not want to go home :) Crown Transfers safely delivered back to the airport and there both be back soon in October.
Rachel's is a one bed apartment located at the junction of blocks D and F and thus had a compact size and challenging layout, the bed room in particular with its almost triangular shape. Everything from Crown Interiors is hand made and customed to suit every clients need and taste, but with out the custom made price tag. with our factory in Bansko and team of local artisans Crown is best placed to deliver on your dream and budget. Here you see the kitchen dinning area with the kitchen made from solid Oak (Bulgarian Oak) it was designed in a shaker style and made functional around the apartment entrance. so as to maximis space potential and present the kitchen as an item of furniture. your also see a solid lime stone floor, and drop ceiling with down lighting over the kitchen zone.
Bulgarian Oak is for me one of the most beautiful Oaks its not easy to work with, as is much harder than other sources of oak but the grain and composition of the wood is just fabulous. LED lighting is built in to the wall units and elegant victorian tube way style tiles are used for the splash back a real touch of class.
Crown Interiors makes all its own sofas (you see a design you like and we will make it for you, or we will design a one off for you, just ask) and this is one of my favourites a real contemporary design perfect for the space, and magically hides a horizontal side and rise sofa bed. the sofa was also over sized as Rachel's boy is a tall one, its so big that we had to bring it in through the balcony doors.
Again a custom unit, made from solid oak, we wall hung it so as to visually to take away from the space, see also the wall papered walls, this really adds additional texture and softens the visual feel of the wood. the glass DVD, and DVD integrated shelving agains reduces the visual impact the piece has on the space.
And so to the bedroom a really difficult shape this, you see a wall mounted oak head board, here we set the wood elements and arranged the sections so the wood its self becomes like a feature as its so beautiful its like a work of art. Integrated stainless steel lamps glass side tables and an over sized mirror with leather frame all combine to give as sense of drama to the space yet an over all feeling of serenity.
To off set the original triangular shape of the room, and visually rationalise the space we set the wardrobe at 90deg to the back wall and at an angle across the room, then custom made the carcass section of the wardrobe in to the triangular space now left behind, clever space management has now meant that a 3 meter wardrobe has been formed our of an original 1.8 meter space. The combination of the hi-gloss acrylic panels and oak frame sliding doors, gives a feeling of space with the reflective surface and texture from the wood, i feel your agree they look great.
Rachel now has her little piece of home from home luxury here in beautiful Bansko, to enjoy for years to come and for us at Crown FM to look after and protect.
A Crown FM, work in progress blog, tracking the facilities management process, for both The Park and The Hill complexes which combine to form the St John Village luxury four seasons resort complex. We not only aim to keep owners up to date with their complex and the works, progress and improvements Crown are making. But also take the opportunity to communicate a little about day to day life in Bansko and some of the exciting and interesting things going on here and in the surrounding areas.
