About KABE
The story behind KABE studio.
KABE studio was founded in 2018 as a small practice working out of a single room in central Zagreb. The name comes from the Japanese word kabe, meaning “wall” - a simple element that quietly defines space, structure, and atmosphere.
Our work sits between architecture and interior design - renovation, layout, light, and material. We are drawn to spaces that don’t announce themselves, but quietly shape how they are lived in.
The Studio
Our studio is located in Zagreb, Croatia.
A ground-floor studio on Ilica, with a long oak table, one plotter, and too many material samples. Open by appointment.
