"There is a housing estate in Warsaw that won a lucky lottery in the post-war housing construction lottery. It was born in silence - as if in defiance of the fashion of the time - without dreams of monumentality and giganticism. Hidden behind the walls of the New Evangelical tenement houses, it lives a quiet life and expands little by little, but at the pleasure of its inhabitants. Although situated in the heart of the city, it is almost invisible to the big-city crowds pouring through New World. [...] It is really worth seeing how nicely people live here", wrote in 1956 in Stolica (Reportage out of fashion), an author hiding under the initials HP.
This unusual neighbourhood became an inspiration for us. In the only Warsaw apartment building with its own tower, standing at the end of Winnie the Pooh Street, we adapted the attic. The building itself hides many secrets, which we are slowly uncovering. Anna Dębska, a sculptor, had her studio in the attic. Now her granddaughter, Aleksandra Waliszewska, an illustrator, takes care of the spirit of the place. Mieczysław Welter, sculptor, and Wojciech Wenzel, graphic artist and painter, lived and worked here. For years, the place of the current flat was a laundry and drying room, so the plasterwork remembers the smell of grey soap, powder and wet laundry hanging on clotheslines.
The space we decided to adapt is part of the unused rooms in the attic. Their unusual layout caused us to divide it into three zones. The first one is the entrance with a kitchen annexe, whose heart is an island on an openwork construction. From there, you enter the other two zones - completely different bedrooms with private bathrooms. You can rent one of them, for two people, or the whole flat for four.
Mysticloft is located in the very centre of the city, away from the noise, sheltered by a square, at the end of the magical one-way Winnie the Pooh Street - planted with lime trees. You only need to walk 100 m to get to the Nowy Świat University metro station, from where you can easily reach the Copernicus Centre or the other side of the Vistula River. Passing through one of the open gates of the neighbouring tenement houses or Warecka Street, you will feel as if, with the wave of a magic wand, you have travelled back in time. This city inspires, so let yourself be seduced by it.

Professionally, interior designer, founder of Modoso_interiors and Kdesign architecture & brands. Privately, a traveller and observer of the world. I practice yoga, which allows me to catch the balance between my private and professional life. I work with the elderly, using my design knowledge to improve their quality of life. I believe that the city is an endless inspiration. When choosing finishing materials, I am always guided by the principle of caring for sustainability, I choose materials that are minimally processed and do not affect our health and well-being. Natural materials age well and develop a patina. Stone, wood, brick, jute, wool, linen - they are often used in my projects. I invite you to visit us to see how vision translates into everyday life.
