The apartment is located in Moscow, in a house on the Sparrow Hills, but it would organically look on the last floor of a high-rise building in the very center of Manhattan. The design of the apartment reminds of the times when the big bands of Glen Miller and Duke Ellington played on the stages of the New York clubs.
Another interesting element of design - abstract painting, which is decorated with the walls of the apartment. Her stories came up with the mistress herself. Together with the author of the project, she approved the sketches, and a professional artist turned them into real paintings. As Varvara Zelenetskaya says, these abstract compositions have a lot in common with how the apartment looks on paper. Broken patterns echo the somewhat illogical structure of space, which can be seen if you look at the plan. Designed apartment for two people, but there are two large guest rooms. Living room, dining room with kitchen, hall are in the same volume. Due to this, the dwelling looks more spacious. The panoramic view, which opens from the windows of the apartment to the capital, further enhances this feeling.
