This apartment is located in the center of the capital, in one of the most sought-after houses of wealthy Muscovites in Ostozhenka lanes. Architect Nana Getashvili managed to convey in the interior a sense of the inconspicuous aristocracy of old Moscow and even create the impression that the connection of times in Russia never fell apart As if there was no revolution, no terror, no decades of stagnation. And there were, on the contrary, an estate near Moscow and solid real estate in the city, great-grandfathers with a university education, children with a distinct future ... In the Moscow apartment there are elegant armchairs and sofas with soft pillows, a Chinese carved wardrobe. Mandatory five o'clock, and in the evening - theatrical premiere. This series can be continued, but among the enumerations there will certainly be the definition of "a feeling of serene peace". It seems that this is how tradition manifests itself on a sensual level. Providing the very integrity to which, as recognized by Nana Getashvili, she sought, thinking through the spatial-interior philosophy of this apartment. The flowing space of the public area (living-dining-kitchen) and the sleeping area of ​​the two rooms are separated by a block from the dressing room, pantry, bathrooms (this is clearly seen on the plan). A small office is adjacent to the fireplace area of ​​the living room, successfully fitting into the "puzzle" of the service premises. However, they can be called such with a big reservation: the bathrooms, for example, are decorated with magnificence that is not inferior to the living room. In the bathroom alcove designed pool. And the guest bathroom is decorated in the style of a rest room (there is a carved wood shelf here). If the public and private spaces are maximally separated, then the functional zones inside the first of them - the kitchen, the dining room, the home theater, the fireplace room - on the contrary, are generalized. According to Nana Getashvili, these zones are "complexly flowing". The architect additionally designated their “current”, placing PROVASI furniture in a certain way ... In accordance with the concept of the holistic space, almost all the cabinet furniture, wooden panels, doors, mosaics, and parquet flooring were made according to the author’s sketches by Nana Getashvili. "Author's" colors are warm, of which the favorite is terracotta. The architect believes that "terracotta colors create an especially cozy mood in this interior."Nana Getsashvili: "In this apartment, classical in essence, there are many exclusive handicraft items made according to my drawings. They are successfully complemented by antique objects and soft, comfortable furniture. The combination of antiquity and modernity creates an exciting interior intrigue"
