Apartment for rent – how to combine functionality with aesthetics?

Equipping an apartment for rent involves many challenges. The biggest of them is to provide tenants with an interior that will be comfortable to use, practical and durable at the same time. These challenges were faced by the owners of an apartment in Słubice, who decided to use MELACO products. They also struggled with other dilemmas:

When I was thinking about finishing the flat for rent, I knew that I could not impose dominant colors or non-universal concepts on the tenants – says Mrs. Wiktoria. – In addition, there was always something in the offer of products from well-known manufacturers that did not fully meet my expectations. For example, the colours or dimensions of solutions that had to be adapted to a small space. Often, aesthetics was not functional.

So what made the MELACO products appeal to the demanding owner?

Both the color offer and the range of sizes turned out to be a bull’s eye. We have different depths, heights and widths – what more could you want? I also liked the functionality of these products – we used the modules to make cabinets, shelves, and even a coffee table and a desk. However, in my opinion, their greatest advantage is the fact that I myself could decide how I want to compose the individual elements of the system. We have a lot of freedom here. It is a perfect solution for people who like to organize their own space – explains Mrs. Wiktoria.

The flat is ready in a few hours

The owners of the flat for rent decided to furnish their interiors with furniture from the HOME STORE and HOME OFFICE 4_you lines. These modular collections offer very high flexibility in space arrangement – they can be freely adapted to both the size and the function of the room. You can easily ‘build’ a comfortable bookcase or a wall with shelves separating part of the interior. They will also work well as shelves, cabinets, a coffee table and a desk for work mentioned by Mrs. Wiktoria.

However, what distinguishes these product lines is, above all, the ease of installation. Designed in the Flick&Click™ system based on the tool-free Threespine® assembly technology licensed under the Välinge Innovation AB modular systems HOME OFFICE and HOME STORE do not require the use of screwdrivers, screws or any specialized equipment.

We planned assembly works for the whole day, because we had to put together the furniture for the whole apartment, and at noon we were already returning home – remembers Mrs. Wiktoria. – We received information that the furniture is designed in the Flick&Click™ system, which is based on a tool-free assembly method. And indeed! It was fabulously simple and very enjoyable. The husband did everything himself in a very short time. I wanted him to share the work with me because it didn’t require any skills, but he wouldn’t let me – he was having too much fun.

DESIGN SOLUTIONS™ 4_kitchen decorative panels have a similar advantage. The owners of the flat in Słubice chose the MARBLE CARRERA pattern, which provided the kitchen with high aesthetics and the desired versatility.

The panels can be mounted both on the rack and without them – with the use of mounting adhesive. Click connection 2G® licensed under the Välinge Innovation AB allows for a perfect fit of the panels. They can be freely cut, adjusting their dimensions to any surface, also to a niche under the kitchen hood. Their great advantage is also the perfect wall covering. They perfectly cover all unevenness and imperfections on its surface.

We asked the owners of the flat in Słubice which advantage of our products they liked the most. Here is the opinion shared with us by Mrs. Wiktoria:

I don’t think I could decide on one. I am glad that I found MELACO, because often watching foreign lookbooks with interior design inspirations, I saw high standard solutions that I could not find. Now I have discovered the source and I will stick to it. This is probably the biggest advantage – I found a solution that meets my high expectations in terms of aesthetics, is functional, easy to install, and what is most important to me: it offers a high quality finish. This is always a very important factor from the investor’s perspective.
