Embracing Serenity: The Mazuri House Transformation by Agata Melerska

by Rong Zhang 02 Aug 2024

In the Mazuri countryside, there is a unique building that embodies the dream of architect Agata Melerska's family to escape the hustle and bustle and find inner balance. After a long search, Agata Melerska and his wife finally found this post-German brick house surrounded by nature, close to lakes and forests. Despite the poor condition of the building, they decided to renovate rather than demolish it, hoping to preserve the soul of the years. However, the process has not been smooth. Agata was pregnant at the time, and initial tests were not promising. When reinforcing the gables, the brick house even fell apart, leaving only fragments of the stone wall, which they plan to rebuild in a different way in the future.

The renovation began with strengthening the foundation and building retaining walls, a critical first step since the building is located on a slope. The problem of cracking the walls was solved by reinforcing the interior metal beams and columns and painting them a cream color. Agata managed to preserve the original wooden beams hidden in the clay and straw ceiling and the entire wooden roof structure, as well as the original tiles.

The renovation of the house faced many challenges, with low floors and small Windows. But by cleaning and exposing old ceiling beams, widening and lowering Windows to the floor, painting olive wood exterior joinery, insulating it and plastering it with structural plaster, the original rustic nature was successfully recreated.

The interior design is also original. The couple chose to use cement-lime stucco and herron-shaped tiles for the floor, and the same tiles for the terrace, which harmoniously blends with the color of the roof. The kitchen features birch plywood with stainless steel countertops, both functional and aesthetic. Vintage tables and chairs with aluminum shelves, as well as Agata-designed book furniture in the living room, plywood coffee tables, woven lights and Danish brand Kirim create a unique atmosphere.

The first floor has a bathroom with a shower, and the use of beige terrazzo and honey tiles echoes the color of the ceiling beams. The two comfortable bedrooms on the second floor are simply and pragmatically furnished, and there is also a bathroom with a bathtub, providing the perfect environment to relax.

The design of the Mazuri House is not only the relentless pursuit of Agata Melerska's dream, but also the exquisite integration of nature and humanity. On the basis of retaining historical traces, it radiates new vitality and vitality, becoming a spiritual habitat for people to stay away from the hustle and bustle and return to nature. Here, people can enjoy the gifts of nature, feel the quiet years, and experience the truth of life.

The Mazuri House, a tranquil retreat masterfully transformed by architect Agata Melerska, is not just a haven of peace but an embodiment of refined living. Nestled in the Mazuri countryside, this post-German brick house has been lovingly restored, maintaining its historical essence while welcoming contemporary comfort.
