Universal aesthetics

Two-bedroom apartment with a total area of ​​77 m2 in the new building of the improved series P-44T. The architect followed the traditionalism traditions in everything

A single light palette combines all the planes of the interiors, and the rooms look more spacious

Along the far wall of the living room there are storage systems where there was a place for books and some other things. The partition from the cabinet prevents the end-to-end access to the apartment from the entrance

Five rocker windows are covered with translucent Roman curtains: solar in the morning insolation in this interior is even excessive. Massive dining table, followed by guests, contrasts with elegant chairs on thin metal frames

Corian made a tabletop and a kitchen "apron", giving up a stove almost to the ceiling. We look next to the opening in the living room, carefully inscribed all the kitchen appliances, including the fridge and oven

From Coriana in the kitchen, not only quite large on the area of ​​"Apron", but also a window sill in the same color scheme and comfortable shelves under it. And on the left side of the shelf, in the form of square cells, and on the right, the rack is equipped with round holes for storing wine bottles

The bedroom of the hostess lights four sconces in the form of a square frame, at an angle of fixed on the walls: paired with the bed, paved wall on the contrary. Low bed on a wide wooden frame covering silk bedspread. Left Flying the bed is a narrow passage to the dressing room

Sliding doors and tambour separated the girl's room from the living room. A corner with a sofa by the window is reflected in the mirrors of the wardrobe on the contrary. Metal plinths and corners, which are finished doorways in the entire apartment, give the premises ease and very practical

In the bedroom, above the table, which sometimes serves the hostess workstation, hangs the same lampshade, as above the bar in the living room. Hinged cabinet with a mirror door is equipped with backlight

The bathroom solved in the same color scheme as an entrance hall that is visible in the doorway.

Plan before repair

Plan after repair

How to adapt a rigid fractional layout of a small apartment to an individual lifefower of representatives of different generations? The architect followed the traditionalism traditions in everything: in the location of zones and elements, in mutual consistency of parts and the whole, in almost achromatic decorative solution. It turned out modern, original and convenient.

People who born not in Moscow, when choosing housing, are guided by several other criteria than the aborigines, connoisseurs of "genius of space." Therefore, the owner of the apartment and her granddaughter, a high school girl, stopped by no means on a luxury building, but on the new building improved series P-44T. The house is not located in the most prestigious place of Shelepihi, but close to work, and the area is promising, because it's from here with hand to the business center "Moscow-City".

In the hallway used small lamps of the cubic shape inserted into the "gap" between the ceiling plates from the Glclastor small in modern metropolitan standards of the area (77m2) - the corner. This gives significant advantages in natural lighting of interiors. The windows overlook the three sides of the world: they are focused on the southeast, southwest and northwest. The south-east is watching the kitchen windows. The most intense sunlight is in the right place (the active day begins here) and at the right time (in the morning). Moreover, the rays of the sun pour not only the dining table located next to the Erker, but also the kitchen modules that took the long-distance wall window next to the door and lined up along the whole wall opposite the entrance. Daylight from the kitchen partially falls even in the living room through the opening with a glass sliding door. The side of the side is drawn to glazing attached to the living room of the loggia, having a trapezoid form. The light from it in the living room enters little, especially when the opening in the wall between these rooms is covered with wooden blinds. But a small living room with an LCD TV on one wall and L-shaped sofa is used mainly at the end of the day, so there should be a lot of sun in this "evening" zone.

Mini bar

Accession to the living room of a trapezoidal loggia not only made it possible to increase it by as much as 5m2, but also added some difficulty, intrigue. There was no acute functional necessity in the additional territory. This is just a romantic corner, a little resembling a summer terrace, where, sitting on high chairs with a friend (space is designed for two), it's nice to chat over a cup of coffee and through the translucent tulle look at the rain outside the window. Here they put racks with different trinkets and gifts that accumulate in every home. The hostess did not want to part with this luggage of the past and was not too lazy to find a suitable place for him in a new apartment. After joining the loggia, the heating battery, fixed on the outer wall under the window, was in the middle of the living room. The window opening and the radiator were tanned from the floor to the ceiling by wooden blinds, which gave the "terrace" is an isolated, and the living room-vertical dominant.

To illuminate the 12m2 children's area of ​​one wide window. A sofa bed was put in a cozy niche closer to him. Opposite the workplace with a comfortable long tabletop and bookcases (outdoor and mounted). The case set a wardrobe with a mirror. The furniture was chosen by light: a lot of light in the nursery does not happen.

In the bedroom the same light script, as in the living room. She, being an intimate zone, does not need intensive day lighting. There is a triangular erker with an angular window, and a rather spacious loggia. But to attach the last residential area and arrange a dressing room there because of the presence of a fire staircase. The seasonal part of the room is now located a bed and a rack of drywall from the headboard, opposite the door-table with a chair and a compact mounted cabinet with a mirror door. Under the dressing room, the angle of the bedroom was taken and the wardrobes were installed behind the partition, and the loggia became an economic corner.

Lowering game

Next to the comfortable low sofa in the living room and a pair of small table stands on wooden frames and with glass tabletops of low ceilings of panel housing roads each centimeter. Therefore, any complex ceiling plastic, which gives the ability to hide communication, speech is not a height of 2.6 m, it does not allow it. Maximum loss - 5cm floor screed. Hospital, and the selection of ceiling luminaires is very limited. It is impossible to hang a big chandelier: it is easy to hurt her head, besides, it blows up the space. Options Several: flat lamps under the ceiling, zonal lighting, wall brake and lower light. For the living room, the architect picked up an elegant luminous glass strip that does not attract a lot of attention, but gives enough light, - almost like in the office. A cozy lampshade-cube hanging over the bar in the attached loggia. In addition to the special highlighting, a composition of three pipes-parallelepipeds is used, as if hanging from the ceiling above the table. It looks slightly urbanish, but very elegant. The furniture is also not suitable for anything: ideal and without legs, such as a flat cabinet under TV panel and small coffee tables, a sofa sitting on which a person would perceive the interior when looking at below. These simple rules are borrowed from the device of a traditional Japanese house.

Thinking up the reorganization, the architect has largely guided by light dramatic drama, since the mood and psychological comfort of the inhabitants of the apartment are largely dependent. Now consider in more detail spatial solutions. Theatrical terms are not accidental here: the stage tricks Konstantin TsGOO applied on a par with decisions suggested by the designer's sanity (just this sometimes it is not enough in layouts of typical housing).

Apartments in the homes of this series are distinguished by the fact that all interior walls are carrying. Neither to move (move), nor, nothing can be demolished, and even the change in the shape of the openings requires the cost of time and means for coordination. However, according to the architect, and on a small area "you can get interesting to play with space." The interior that now looks like optimally "adjusted" under the lifestyle of the owners, demanded a significant transformation of the planning. Initially, the apartment was "treshka" with insulated rooms and impractical corridors. From an isolated living room refused, having demolished the corridor partition with swing doors. The bathroom and the toilet combined, by increasing the new spacious bathroom at the expense of the corridor area - a passage to the kitchen. Between it and the newly formed bathroom elevated the partition of the desired configuration, on the one hand it was installed by plumbing, and on the other kitchen equipment.

To optimize the routes of movement, between the kitchen and the living room in the wall made the opening, placing it closer to the loggia. At the same time, the wall strengthened with a welded frame structure from the channels, additionally, tied by steel ties with an outer wall. For separation of a small apartment to the public and private zone, Konstantin carried out a simple and non-bunny solution: he complicated the entrances to the nursery and the master's bedroom, setting up something like tambourists in front of them. Additional partitions like the Kulis divide the private and public zone so that you can not enter the room, just step by step through the threshold, and you have to take a few steps, changing the direction of movement. Outdoor coatings also emphasize that we find out in another zone: in the living room on the floor, practical porcelain stoneware, and in the children's and bedroom, a massive board.

Thanks to the flavor, the apartment turned out in the style of "Unisex". Usually an active feminine start in the interior is given bright colored accents. Here they are not. There is no contrast of white and black. Long communicate with the hostess, the architect noticed that it was inherent to her calmly smooth character, male restraint and hardness. Therefore, he did not offer excessive decorativeness and decorations. Same in a small apartment, they would also attract attention, "scoring" space. In addition, the restraint of the coloristic gamma is very functionally well-solved and is unlikely to come out of fashion. Even when granddaughter grows up and starts an independent life (for which a separate housing will be required), any of the two current inhabitants will be able to stay on this territory. Universal design All ages are submissive.

Tell the author of the project

Before contacting the specialists in the interiors, the owner of the apartment spent work, and considerable. This commendable is rarely happening. Usually people browse the magazines, go through interior salons, even go to the exhibitions in Milan, but nothing is postponed in the head either formed by the sulk impressions and emotions.

Svetlana Alekseevna, creating some kind of portfolio with a selection of publications and furniture catalogs, found the company Leve-Artis on the Internet (Russia), which had embodied interiors in his stylistry interested. What a hostess liked, can be called functionalism, but this is not the great Italian functionalism, which has become a classic design of the XX century., And not the first splash of acute fashion on it, we have recently experienced, and laconic forms and simple lines followed by the function and Which now arrived in every modern interior, Designer Mainstream. According to her dislike, I understand that it is in something minimalist. But it would be ridiculous to implement this style in small panel housing rooms. Therefore, the aesthetics of the apartment can be characterized rather as functionalism.

The first thing was chosen furniture. The budget was open, and did not save brands. At first glance, it may seem that it is illogical to invest quite large money in the housing in this house and in the area. But everyone has their own priorities. How many examples of the opposite can be seen when the owners did not bother to huge palace spaces and a luxurious finish, and then the funds lacked even on budget furniture! I believe that the joy of possessing by the things liked quite justifies funds spent on them.
