Fire-painted apartments

Your own private resort

Sopot is more than a city. It is an icon and symbol of the European resort. Famous yet still undiscovered. Attractive and underexplored. Magnetic and obliging – intolerant of compromise. In return, it offers what seems impossible: unbroken silence, stunning greenery and, at the same time, proximity to an exciting city.
It is a place with a unique atmosphere, whose traditions date back to the 16th century and whose qualities were already appreciated by the doctors of Napoleon’s army. In the interwar period, it was the preferred holiday destination of the elite; today it is decidedly more democratic. This does not, however, prevent it from constantly exuding elegance. Smolna Sopot was created precisely in this refined spirit. 

• On the principles of nature: Smolna Sopot preserves the natural landscaping characteristic of the entire city. It does not impose itself on its surroundings, but blends harmoniously into the panorama of the Tricity Landscape Park – a nature conservation area on the edge of which it was built.
   
• Silence you can hear: The low-rise, minimalist buildings are surrounded by a preserved forest space and a patio that is green all year round. It acts as a relaxation area, providing all residents with what is invaluable – privacy and silence. A silence undisturbed by the whirr of engines, as all car traffic has been relocated underground, leaving the landscape undisturbed.
   
• A location that is second to none: From here, from the Świemirowo neighbourhood, you can take a leisurely stroll anywhere – to the sandy beach, to the bustling city centre, on forest excursions to the picturesque Jedlinowa Polana, to the Sopot Hippodrome, and to the part of Sopot where you will come across stately villas, restaurants and cafés.

The power of architectural synergy

A distinctive feature of Smolna is the architecture inspired by Scandinavian minimalism and Japanese design philosophy.
It is a synergy of simple, timeless blocks, East Asian façades and organic interiors. However, these seemingly distant aesthetics form the coherent architectural language of a multidisciplinary team – the joint work of the extraordinary talent of many creators. Smolna was designed by the renowned KD Kozikowski Design studio, the façades were designed by Pote Architekci, the interiors by Kuoo and Tamizo Architects, and the greenery by Studio Krajobraz.

• 14th-century Japanese traditions: Smolna Sopot’s unparalleled attention to detail. In both the exterior and interior elements, the architects used Shou Sugi Ban – a very refined, natural and time-consuming wood conservation technique, extremely rare in the European cultural context.
   
• Intimacy, home, city: Flat green roofs and spacious gardens surrounded by tall plants are the privilege of experiencing privacy in a city so full of life, and a lush contrast to the six sparingly designed buildings. Dense greenery, centrally located fruit trees, perennials and grasses provide residents with the intimacy needed to feel that they own more than an apartment – that they are creating and realising their dream of a Sopot home and building a community with their neighbours.
   
• Experiencing uniqueness: The insistence on employing almost exclusively eco-friendly materials and the labour-intensive techniques used to make them testify to the unprecedented commitment of the artists who created Smolna. Thanks to them, this place offers something priceless today – the opportunity to live in a space that is not only characterised by its timelessness, but also by its authorial vision.

Balance found in simplicity

Smolna Sopot’s space is sensory and its interiors are minimalist and organic. Here you can both relax and create, as the forms and colours are restrained, while inside, amenities await that make work-life balance an exciting daily experience.
The interiors of the communal areas are styled in a way that is distinguished by simple forms and an economy of detail management. They open up to the surrounding nature and merge with it, creating a soothing unity. Geometry gives way to the organic, rigidity to gentleness, technical precision to the discipline of nature. Just touch the walls to feel the texture of the material, lift your gaze to see the light greenery, enter the relaxation spaces to mute the stimuli.

• Proximity to nature: The muted interiors of Smolna Sopot eschew decorative elements in favour of a play with the monochromatic textures and shapes found in nature. Large glazed staircases provide daylight and a soothing view of the surrounding nature. The spaces are free of ostentation, but filled with minimalism in its refined version – warm wood and raw concrete.
   
• Living well: Smolna Sopot also includes recreational spaces that harmoniously combine the subtle elegance characteristic of the entire complex with unconditional functionality. The Scandinavian-style yoga room offers the ideal place to relax and meditate. The fitness area provides the opportunity for a comprehensive workout. The dry and wet saunas offer a moment of relaxation in an environment where almost every detail is tailor-made. And the club lounge, with its Italian bookcase that encourages book sharing, unobtrusively invites you to meet and integrate with the neighbourhood. There is also a co-working area, which creates the ideal conditions for effective work by eliminating unnecessary stimuli.
   
• Clear functional-spatial solutions: The proximity to the sea, trekking areas, magnificent forests and numerous cycle paths inspired the architects to create two solutions that are pioneering on a national scale. These are the workshop area, where you can repair your bicycle, and the room with the dog wash and dog bath. It’s here where both two-wheeled sports enthusiasts and those with four-legged friends visit after a workout or a walk. Especially on rainy days.

Home and nature in a Sopot symbiosis

Smolna connects the impossible. It offers direct access to Sopot and is also an extension of the Tricity Landscape Park. It is connected to nature. Here, surrounding greenery from all sides and deliberately geometric architecture enter into the relationship for which the legendary Polish resort is famous.

• A sensory experience of greenery: Studio Krajobraz took care of the green patio, rich in light flora, which is especially pleasing at a time when the surrounding forests have already shed their leaves. This is a nod to a philosophy that celebrates authenticity and the calm that comes from accepting the inevitability of change – both in culture and in contact with nature, whose cycles are felt at Smolna with every sense.
   
• In summer, the fruits of Smolna can be harvested: In the warmest months, the bushes surrounding the natural playground blossom with juicy fruits – blueberries and raspberries – which entice you to pick them to enjoy the taste of summer. Just like in your own garden.
   
• A garden’s intimacy: Smolna breathes peacefully and lives by the slow rhythm of the resort and the cycles of nature. This guarantees complete tranquillity for all residents. The dense evergreen plants inside the apartment complex, on the other hand, provide something more – complete freedom from external stimuli, as well as intimacy and privacy..
