HOMIN | Office to home conversion, design by Bezmirno Architects

The name HOMIN is a play on meanings. It echoes the Ukrainian word “гомін” (homin) — the lively hum of a large family filling the space with life — and the English phrase “Home In,” symbolizing a return to where you belong.

A home begins not with walls, but with a feeling. This project is about a calm rhythm, clean space, and architectural silence. There are no accidental effects here: form follows function and human interaction. It is a manifesto of new minimalism, where aesthetics do not compromise daily comfort.

The transformation of a former office space with complex geometry into a full-fledged family residence. Beyond layout constraints, we faced significant height issues: part of the apartment is located directly beneath a neighbor’s terrace, resulting in critically low ceilings. Existing technical nodes and engineering networks from the former office dictated rigid frameworks into which we had to fit a comfortable living ergonomics.

The Bezmirno team converted a technically complex, “cold” commercial unit into a flexible living space. The Homin interior does not dictate rules but adapts to the family’s life scenarios, remaining timeless.
