Life in the metropolis is beautiful, especially if you watch it from a high point, because the architect made landscapes outside the windows part of the interior scenario, adding an interesting graphic design.
A young business resident of the capital, a connoisseur of urbanist aesthetics, a healthy lifestyle, an athlete, acquired an apartment on the Embankment of the Moscow River in a brick nine-story building built by an individual project. Of the three windows overlooking the Moscow City and the White House. In addition to modern aesthetics and opportunities to enjoy the views of the city around the clock, the views of the city required a maximum intention to each centimeter of a small area, on which it was to place a studio, a separate bedroom, a dressing room and a bathroom with a bath.
The mirror cloth walked the stensel between the windows, next to the radiator. Compacted mounted cabinets attached to the metal partition frame (depth 0.2 m)
Redevelopment
The elongated twin-off rectangle before had a practically symmetrical layout - the symmetry axis took place along the trothed, with a small protrusion erker. The old structure was not suitable for the scenario of the owner's life, only the kitchen zone and the bathroom remained in the previous places. The kitchen and living room combined, separating from the hallway without a wall, as before, and a transparent partition, the border between the inlet zone and the kitchen was slightly shone to embed furniture on both sides. Reducing the length of the bedroom, staged a dressing room with a separate entrance from the hallway. The bathroom remained in the former borders.
The scenario of lighting throughout the apartment combines a variety of local miceanes, the design of the lamps is both strict and nonsense and very unusual
Additional measurements
The owner wanted to let as much live light as possible in the hallway, and between the studio and the entrance zone built a glass partition on the metal frame, and the huge mirror was attached to the wall, capturing the window reflection and the deepening perspective. The protruding rigl, the spinal appearance of this wall, included in the volume composition created by drywall - it turned out the similarity of the portal attached to the entire design of architectural completion.
Folding sofa in the living room can serve as a sleeping place. The floor in the studio is lined with tiled under the tree - beautiful and practical
Repairs
The apartment had to change the screed, the new partitions elevated from the plaster blocks, the ceilings were leveled by plasterboard, seeking to minimize the lowering of their level. The floors in the bedroom were tested by an oak parquet board, previously after insulation, in the rest of the rooms - a porcelain tile. The windows and radiators were replaced, the window sills made from an artificial stone, air conditioners installed in the living room and bedroom on both sides of the door, the exterior blocks were placed on the facade. The walls were shuffled and painted, the bedroom was insulated with one wall (with a dressing room inlet).
The design of the studio proceeded from functional tasks: the dining group and chandelier over it is almost transparent, biocamine and the screen for the projector - in the composite center
Functionality of design solutions
The window sills made of artificial stone in the kitchen and the bedroom do not only perform their usual feature. Having increased their depth, in the kitchen received an extra worktop and equipped with a wardrobe (depth of 0.35 m), the radiator was placed between the kitchen and the dining room - the graphicness of the wall model echoes the rhythm of partitions and lamps.
In the bedroom, the depth of the window sill increased to 0.5 m and strengthened it with metal structures: in the evenings, the owner of the apartment likes to get a similarity of the bench, contemplating views of the city.
The two-color kitchen set optimally corresponds to the design task: optically expand the space and "lift" the ceiling, give the interior depth. Slim Bar Stand Silhouette Parts Kitchen Zones and Living Room
The combination of volume furniture (sofa, cabinet in the kitchen end) with graphic details gave the studio of the thoroughness and at the same time character and completion.
Design
The modern urban appearance of the interior combined the signs of minimalism and functionalism, but with recognizable, inherent in this project features. The windows have become the main points of attraction of the view, and they did not hide them behind the curtains. A risky union of four zones (living room, dining room, kitchen and hallway), usually simplifying the face of the interior, in this project elegantly balanced by various ways of zoning: the shared link between the living room and the kitchen serves a bar table and a back of the sofa, the living room from the hallway partially separated partitions - two vertical Metal grilles with a glass attached to them.
The light rhythm of their verticals as it is collecting weightless space, permeated with light, and echoes with such graphic details as an unusual chandelier with a multitude of plafones on thin diagonals of cables, an elongated tubular radiator. Restrained color gamma combined solutions of all zones and rooms.
The part of the cabinet facade in the bedroom was issued by a mirror, and one more "entrance" turned out to the illusory space: the game of reflections allowed to optically increase almost all the rooms of the apartment, but it was done unobtrusive
How to visually enlarge the little bedroom
The little bedroom looks spacious and unusually due to the design. So, its walls were painted into a deep chocolate tone - and the interior acquired a feeling of soft and warm depth. The wall behind the headboard was made by a large-format porcelain tile resembling a decorative panel. The rack decor from a bar, mounted on both sides of the head of the head and passes on the ceiling, created a rigorous rhythmic pattern, shifting the proportion and, as it were, stretching the boundaries of the room. This item echoes the design of the studio, where the main intrigue is created by two partitions-scenes - the vertical rhythm of the metal rods of the black color, fixed on the floor and the ceiling, sets a kind of coordinate system.
Most of the cabinet furniture and architectural design was performed on the sketches of the author of the project, which made it possible to give interiors with ease and individual character.
In the bedroom there are two types of curtains, although they are usually spread. A wide window sill of artificial stone was successfully replaced by a couch, for a comfortable stay, he was supplied with pillows
The end wall of the hallway, it is the main wall of the living room, finished with a coating under concrete and is completely unnoticed by two invisible doors (in the bedroom and in the dressing room)
Unlike large rooms, the bathroom is decorated in one color, which optically expanded its space. The entrance door on both sides made a mirror
Architect Marina Bocharova:
All decisions were taken very quickly. Deciding with the optimal layout, took up with stylistics: I wanted to create an interior as a "portrait" of the owner of the apartment. In my opinion, we succeeded. The customer is young and dynamic, puts a big goal in life, passionate about the sport. Since the Italian manufacturers have committed very much with the delivery time of the bed, it was urgent to order a similar model here. We found craftsmen in St. Petersburg, and they have fulfilled our order in the shortest possible time (Makers Design). The main wall of the living room is decorated only by a strict body of biocamine, which so beautifully plays a flame in the dark, eroded with the lights of a large city. The space over it takes only a white screen for the projector.
The editors warns that in accordance with the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, the coordination of the conducted reorganization and redevelopment is required.
