The authors of the project created a modern and functional habitat in which white surfaces protrude with graphic lines and bright color accents. The apartment for temporary accommodation will be easy to adapt to new tasks.
Living room
Outdoor wood shelving Tika with toilet storage shelves perfectly fit into a niche formed by a box with engineering communications and shower
The married couple acquired a small-sized Moscow dvu, located on the high floor of the panel house. The owners needed additional property for living during the repair of the main dwelling, and after its end, the apartment will be used as an additional space for work and recreation. In terms of design, the owners impressed the bright interior in Scandinavian style with colored accents. An important condition was to fit all the necessary functional zones so that the feeling of space is preserved.
Podium steps can be used for gatherings with friends or as an additional landing room in the home theater. In the design of the room there are accents of yellow and blue, which are repeated in the design of the loggia
Redevelopment
The carrier reinforced concrete wall shares the living space into two almost equal in the area of the territory. One of them was taken under a multifunctional living room, which will also act as a bedroom and home cinema; In the second one, it was possible to fit the kitchen-dining room and the bathroom, and in the loggia they planned a small office and a comfortable point of reading. Before the architects, the task was also set to separate the input zone from the rest of the space. Therefore, a light turn-permeable partition from nine wooden plates appeared between the kitchen and the hallway, and from the opposite side, the angular discogeneous design, indicating the borders of the bathroom. In the resulting niche staged a wardrobe for outerwear and shoes with sliding doors. They were designed so that the right panel (veneered) closes the cabinet, the left (mirror) will mask the entrance to the bathroom.
All apartments are decorated in a single color vein and using the same materials, which creates a sense of integrity.
The embedded in the cabinet, working on a biofuel, creates a convincing imitation of a real flame. The cozy hearth helped bring the atmosphere of the Scandinavian country house to the urbanistic context
Repairs
The screed was replaced, the floors were leveled, a large-format ceramic tile was used as a coating in public areas, and in residential - engineering board. The ceilings in all rooms lowered 4 cm for the installation of seamless matte stretch. The walls and floor of the loggia were reliably insulated with mineral wool. All windows have installed new double glazing, low window sill in the dining area expanded, so that it can be used as an additional seat for seating, and in space under it there was a hidden storage system. Thus, the radiator was also hidden behind the wooden panels, heat from which it is distributed through special holes.
To visually increase the volume of small rooms, white paint Tikkurila was used to decorate the walls everywhere. In the bathroom, the tile was tiled only the space inside the shower, the remaining surfaces were covered with moisture-resistant toner. Such a non-standard solution The authors explain that the coating of all vertical surfaces of the room with ceramic modules narrows the already small area of the wet zone.
Glossy, reflecting the light of the furniture surfaces serve for a visual increase in space.
In the case of reception, the round dining table is folded, and the low window sill becomes an additional landing site.
Using the Smart Home system
In this project, a convenient intelligent system "Smart Home" is implemented, and the customer has been selected by the selection of the device complex it independently. Directly during the repair process, he decided to improve the "intelligence" of his dwelling and add hidden cameras, various controllers, leakage sensors and other devices that are easy to control using mobile applications. For example, in the event of an accident, you can quickly overlap the cranes of hot and cold water, and when troubleshooting has a remotely run them into operation. Another cunning device was an intercom with call forwarding to a cell phone. Thus, the owner of the apartment was able to answer the caller to the intercom visitors, while in another city and even abroad.
Home Cabinet in the Loggia space is the perfect isolated space for working on a laptop, besides located in the most illuminated part of the apartment. After all the cases are completed, you can relax on the podium with a soft seat in the opposite part of the room
Design
The dwelling is decorated in a Scandinavian style whose characteristic features are traced in each room of the apartment. The light walls and the ceiling visually expanded the space, and also became an excellent "canvas" for applying as dark graphic "lines" (hours, photo frames, lamps), and for blue and yellow color stains (pillows, coffee tables, painting of furniture ends ). An important role in the interior is played by the tones of natural wood (kitchen apron, floor, windowsill), as well as a neutral shade of gray, which is present in the sofa finish, due to which the subject does not look cumbersome.
The minimum number of furniture made it possible to create a feeling of space. To do this, it was necessary to carefully work out storage issues, including at the expense of built-in and multifunctional solutions. For example, the bedside table in the hallway also performs the role of the toaster. A spacious three-meter cabinet with a depth of 60 cm in the living room helped not only accommodate a large number of things, but also adjust the proportions of the elongated room. In the loggia of the storage system is hidden in the functional seat-seat. All the household equipment necessary for cooking and the refrigerator was built into the kitchen furniture, and in one of the columns, the place for the washing and drying machine was allocated.
The role of the main lighting devices in all rooms is performed by overhead luminaires. And the suspended chandeliers, floor lamps and scavenses serve not only with functional illumination of various zones, but also actively stylistic components.
The rhythmic partition visually isolating the hallway, but at the same time passes the natural light from the kitchen window into the input zone. The design resembles a wooden portal, due to the fact that the rails continue on the ceiling, and then reflected in the mirror surface. Linear pattern found his expression and in the guise of tiles on the apron
Design a small area - always not easy and interesting. The most exciting moment in the project implementation process arose when ordering furniture items from Indonesia. It goes by itself a comparison with the game in Russian roulette. We took the organization of delivery on ourselves and contacted the factory, which is located on the island of Java. Then they made measurements and sent them to production staff, after which they were very worried about the fact that because of any error, the built-in rack would not get into the bathroom. In the end, we were sent photos from Indonesia to take the goods. In photographs, factory staff attached a roulette so that we can see the exact dimensions of the finished product. As a result, the rack fits perfectly into the niche allocated to him.
