INTERIOR ARCHITECT IN WARSAW
Residential interiors shaped around the way you live.
I am Jacek Tryc, an interior architect based in Warsaw, Poland. Since 1999, I have been designing individual residential interiors, from apartments and private houses to larger residences.
My work combines architectural thinking, functional planning and carefully selected materials. I believe that a successful interior should do more than look beautiful. It should reflect the people who live in it, respond to their everyday needs and retain its character over time.
Every project begins with understanding the client, the architecture and the potential of the space. From there, I develop a considered design in which proportions, materials, light and function work together as a coherent whole.
Interior architecture, guided by experience and the art of subtraction.
WHAT I OFFER
CONCEPT DESIGN
Every project begins with a clear functional and aesthetic concept that establishes the direction for the entire interior.
I start by analysing the existing space and developing a functional layout that responds to your lifestyle. I then define the furniture arrangement, floor and ceiling plans, lighting concept, colour palette and materials.
The result is a coherent vision of your future interior, with the key design decisions established before the detailed design stage begins.
3D VISUALISATIONS
Photorealistic 3D visualisations help you understand how the proposed interior will look and feel before construction begins.
They bring together the selected materials, colours, furniture, lighting and architectural details, allowing you to assess the overall composition and refine individual elements.
VR presentations are also available, offering a more immersive way to experience the designed space before it becomes reality.
DETAILED DESIGN
Once you approve the concept, I develop it into a comprehensive set of technical drawings and specifications for implementation.
Depending on the scope of the project, the documentation may include:
- Functional layouts and detailed floor plans
- Ceiling and lighting plans
- Electrical, plumbing and heating layouts
- Custom furniture and built-in storage design
- Kitchen and bathroom design
- Architectural details and finishing specifications
- Material, fixture and product schedules
The documentation gives contractors a clear framework for executing the design and helps maintain consistency throughout the project.
PROJECT SUPERVISION
A well-designed interior requires careful implementation. I can remain involved throughout the construction and finishing stages to help ensure that the completed space reflects the approved design.
I cooperate with experienced contractors, craftsmen and specialist suppliers, helping resolve design-related questions and maintain the quality of materials, detailing and workmanship.
The scope of supervision is agreed individually for each project.
HOW I WORK
FROM THE FIRST CONVERSATION TO THE FINISHED INTERIOR
01 — CONSULTATION
We discuss your property, lifestyle, expectations, priorities and the scope of the project. This conversation establishes the foundation for our cooperation.
02 — CONCEPT
I develop the functional layout and define the architectural direction, including the main materials, colours and overall character of the interior.
03 — DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
I refine the furniture, lighting, finishes and architectural details, bringing them together into a coherent design.
04 — TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
Once you approve the concept, I prepare the drawings and specifications required for implementation.
05 — IMPLEMENTATION
Where agreed, I support the project during construction and finishing, helping translate the design into a carefully executed interior.
RESIDENTIAL INTERIOR DESIGN
APARTMENTS
I design individual interiors for new apartments and undertake considered renovations of existing properties. My approach focuses on making the most of the available space while respecting the architecture of the property and the needs of its residents.
HOUSES
I develop comprehensive interior designs for private houses, considering the relationship between individual rooms, everyday routines, storage, lighting and materials from the outset.
PRIVATE RESIDENCES
For larger residential properties, I bring architecture, bespoke furniture, materials, lighting and craftsmanship together in a consistent design. Every decision contributes to the overall character of the residence rather than competing for attention.
THE ART OF SUBTRACTION
I believe that a good interior does not need an accumulation of decorative elements to make an impression.
My approach, which I describe as the art of subtraction, is about identifying what matters and removing what does not. Simple forms, natural materials, considered proportions and carefully chosen details can create spaces with greater clarity and lasting appeal.
Minimalism, however, does not mean austerity or coldness. Wood, stone, textiles and organic forms introduce warmth, depth and tactile qualities. The aim is not to create an empty space, but an interior in which every element has a reason to be there.
This philosophy guides my work across different architectural styles. Rather than impose a predetermined look, I develop a design that responds to the property and the people who will inhabit it.
AWARD-WINNING RESIDENTIAL DESIGN
EUROPEAN PROPERTY AWARDS 2021–2022
My project Svalbard — Minimalist Apartment in Warsaw received a European Property Award in the 2021–2022 edition, in the category Residential Interior Apartment for Poland.
The project draws inspiration from the Arctic landscape of Svalbard, translating its colours, textures and restrained forms into a contemporary residential interior.
This recognition reflects an approach to design that combines a clear architectural concept with attention to materials, functionality and the individual character of a home.
EXPERIENCE & PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
I graduated with a Master of Engineering degree in Architecture from the Faculty of Architecture at Warsaw University of Technology. I have been running my own interior architecture practice since 1999, bringing more than 25 years of professional experience to residential projects.
My work focuses primarily on apartments, houses and private residences in Warsaw and its surrounding areas. I approach each project from an architectural perspective, considering how the layout, materials, light, furniture and technical solutions work together.
I am also a co-founder of the Association of Interior Architects in Poland (Stowarzyszenie Architektów Wnętrz).
For me, experience is not simply a matter of years. It is the ability to recognise a property’s potential, anticipate practical challenges and make informed decisions throughout the design process.
WARSAW & INTERNATIONAL PROJECTS
My studio is based in Warsaw, where I primarily work with clients undertaking new residential projects and renovations.
I also accept commissions elsewhere in Poland and internationally. Depending on the property and the scope of work, I can organise parts of the design process remotely, combining online meetings with site visits when necessary.
Each project is assessed individually to establish the most effective way of working.
