Wunderkamera Studio - cornucopia of aesthetics

In an inconspicuous tenement building in Warsaw’s Saska Kępa, photographer Ernest Wińczyk and Koka Skowrońska, together with architect Kacper Gronkiewicz conceived something that goes beyond an ordinary photographic studio, a creative workshop, an office and an apartment. They created an inspiring and stimulating artistic melting pot. Wunderkamera’s photographic studio features our blackout fabric, Doppio. In turn, the residential section boasts our lavishly green, decorative velvet knitted fabric Spring.

When designing this 140-m2 space, the artists came up with the idea of a “total room”. This is how the RGM (red, green, blue) room was created, featuring only these three colours. The very interior looks like an artistic installation – it showcases such distinctive examples of design as a mirror by Oskar Zięta, a bookshelf by Tylko or a Melt lamp by Tom Dixon. Naturally, Wunderkamera also boasts totems by Koka Skowrońska. All the items render an excellent background for one another, at the same time being filled with individual meanings and contexts.

Another major area is the photographic studio. Each element of its make-up had to meet high functional and aesthetic expectations. The Doppio blackout fabric in a light Stone shade was used in opulent curtains, effectively blocking out light whenever necessary. In the photographic studio, the fabric became a versatile, backdrop element. Furthermore, the curtains dampen external noise and help maintain focus during photo shoots.

In turn, our velvet knitted fabric Spring in the Fir Tree shade has been used e.g. in the kitchen. The short drapery hung along the ceiling smoothly transitions from a window decoration into a curtain covering the upper cabinets. Henry FR has also been used in this project as the corridor curtain covering the front door.
