These apartments are located on the 56th floor of the Federation Tower in Moscow-City. The view from the windows is breathtaking. By its scale, this landscape is inferior, perhaps, only to the panorama that opens from the observation platform in Ostankino. “The owners are very lucky, - says the author of the project Mikhail Gubakin- there are no tall buildings on the horizon ". Therefore, by the way, the apartment initially had excellent natural light. However, the subsequent zoning, the creation of partitions dividing the living space, inevitably should have led to the loss of a significant proportion of light.

The designers found an original solution to the problem: they decorated the walls of the apartment with translucent frosted glass inserts of two meters height. They are illuminated from the inside and still hide behind bamboo-like bushes. Artificial plants. In some places the leaves are in contact with the glass, and you can see their texture, and from the bush there is only a beautifully blurred silhouette. In addition, thanks to the lamps installed inside the stained glass windows, it was possible to maintain the same level of illumination.

In the design of the apartments you can find elements of different styles - classics, modern minimalism, there are also a lot of objects made in the traditions ar-deko. Designers deliberately mixed different styles. This allowed to make the interior more lively, more brutal, more interesting and fresh. The center of living space has become a single area, which includes the living room, kitchen, dining room and bar. It created the perfect place for parties and receptions. Even the kitchen was not conceived as a place for parks and frying, the dishes prepared by the service center are often heated on it. It was in the design of the "buffet" authors' passion for eclecticism manifested most clearly. This is evident in the furniture. On the one hand, there are works of the factory GIORGETTIon the other hand, 100% classic objects made by craftsmen. LUCIANO ZONTA (office). The combination of purist furniture company looks just as interesting. MOLTENI&C with bright and unusual classics created CREATIONS (living room).

The light is also very different: next to the avant-garde lamps MOOOI hanging traditional chandeliers ITALAMP. This "art" approach is well correlated with another function of the apartments: the owner wished them to become the depository of the painting, which he collects. Bright interior and good paintings are always perfectly combined with each other.

Mikhail Gubakin: “The customer lives in these apartments, and here he keeps his painting collection. But they are also designed so that you can have parties here, relax with friends. And if someone decides to stay after the buffet, there is a guest bedroom with its bathroom. ”
