A six-room, 150-square-meter apartment in Rishon LeZion <\/p>\n

\u201cToday I do not stick to a single style,\u201d Zelig says. \u201cI create a design language tailored to the people themselves, their character, habits and pace of life. In this home, the style that emerged is clean and natural, with a sense of warmth.\u201d<\/p>\n
The apartment spans about 150 square meters and includes six rooms: a master bedroom, a guest room, a music and work room, a bedroom for the daughters and a separate playroom. There is also an open-plan living area that combines the living room, kitchen and dining space. \u201cThe clients came with general inspirations of clean, bright design,\u201d Zelig recalls. \u201cBut they trusted me completely in the process. That allowed me to take the concept further and create a design that has both calm and character.\u201d<\/p>\n
The couple\u2019s main request was to turn the apartment into a functional, pleasant home with a strong sense of flow. As a result, the planning stage focused on generous storage, an open and airy feel and consistent materials that connect all the rooms.<\/p>\n

That is why the couple chose to separate the functions into two rooms, with the girls sharing a space for sleeping and dressing.<\/p>\n \u201cThe bedroom was designed with a calm and gentle atmosphere, using delicate shades of pink and cream combined with soft textiles that create a sense of serenity and security,\u201d Zelig says. \u201cIn contrast, the playroom has a freer, more dynamic language, a place where it is allowed to jump, climb and create, all set against soft, enveloping colors.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 12 View gallery <\/p>\n Oak wood, natural veneer, soft textiles and fabrics in beige and light stone tones in the living room and kitchen<\/p>\n (Photo: Yonatan Tamir)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 12 View gallery <\/p>\n Bright, yet made from washable, easy-to-maintain materials<\/p>\n (Photo: Yonatan Tamir)<\/p>\n The play and leisure space includes custom rounded cabinetry, storage areas that hide everything away at the end of the day and a dedicated climbing area designed especially for the girls and adapted to the size of the room. <\/p>\n \u201cI wanted the space to be experiential and inviting, but also pleasing to the eye,\u201d Zelig explains. \u201cEverything is made of durable materials and washable fabrics, so even as the girls grow up, the room remains relevant.\u201d<\/p>\n While most of the home is designed in light, soft tones, especially in the shared living area, the workroom that also serves as a music studio creates an entirely different world. \u201cThis is the father\u2019s retreat,\u201d Zelig says. \u201cIt is a space where he disconnects from routine, creates and works, and connects to a world that is both a hobby and a profession.\u201d<\/p>\n Unlike the bright and calm language of the rest of the home, this room features a deeper, more enveloping atmosphere, combining darker shades with focused lighting that highlights the equipment and creates intimacy. <\/p>\n According to Zelig, the challenge was finding the right balance between a technological work environment, with computers, sound equipment and lighting, and a warm design. \u201cIn the end, we created a space that feels both professional and personal, one that allows inner quiet and free creativity,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 12 View gallery <\/p>\n The designed playroom<\/p>\n (Photo: Yonatan Tamir)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 12 View gallery <\/p>\n Playroom – a fun place to spend time<\/p>\n (Photo: Yonatan Tamir)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 12 View gallery <\/p>\n A shared bedroom for the two daughters, with low-profile furniture and calm tones<\/p>\n (Photo: Yonatan Tamir)<\/p>\n Zelig points to one detail she is particularly proud of: a custom carpentry element designed for the entrance hall, featuring a curved bench that connects the dining area with the entryway. <\/p>\n \u201cOn one side it integrates as part of the dining area, and on the other it creates a smart organizing zone with space for coats and bags, storage and comfortable seating,\u201d she explains. \u201cThis element connects the spaces intelligently and creates a harmonious flow throughout the home.\u201d<\/p>\n The couple did not hide their excitement at the end of the project. \u201cI admit I was skeptical at first when my wife decided to hire an interior designer,\u201d the homeowner says. \u201cBut Liat led us to a perfect result and to the home we truly dreamed of.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 12 View gallery <\/p>\n Soft pink hues extend into the bathroom<\/p>\n (Photo: Yonatan Tamir)<\/p>\n![\"\u05d3\u05d9\u05e8\u05d4](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/HyELGBEbH11g_0_0_2500_1668_0_x-large.jpg\" "\\"The")
