About how the choice of architects, tell the architects themselves. Selected items for the living room, we publish in this category. Archives were found in the showroom Artemide, boutiques Armani Casa и The Rooms

Architect Nana Gateshvili: "A large pillow casually thrown in the living room is a traditional thing for the East. Nevertheless, it will easily and naturally find a place for itself in different interiors, helping to soften the strict forms of high-tech and making the situation more relaxed when it comes to classics. The pillow chosen by me is bright and, like any object created by the great Armani, combines elegant severity and comfort. In the living room such a pillow can play the role of a coffee table (if you put a tray on it), a pouf for legs the one on which you can sit down. "

Architect Weight Karabashyan: "In creating the interior one of the main tools for me was and remains the light. In the living room it is especially important to accurately place light accents - you need to create the maximum number of light scenarios so that you can completely change your mood using lighting, make the interior festive and solemn or, conversely, muffled, warm, relaxed. The central lamp in the interior is a capricious object. It often draws excessive attention on itself, dominates, dictates its aesthetics. ARTEMIDE There is an amazing lamp Tian xia - a huge mirror cylinder, emitting soft light. In the off state, a cylinder suspended on a thin cable dissolves in space, leaving only slightly distorted reflections of objects in the air. It does not matter that the design of the lamp itself is radically modern; I would boldly use it in an emphatically lush baroque interior. "

Architect Gulya Akhmetshina: “When it comes to the shop window, I recall the description of Albert’s living room from Alexander Dumas’s novel The Count of Monte Cristo, read in childhood. The main decoration of that living room was the display cases with treasures from around the world and various collections from smoking pipes to cuts precious fabrics ... This showcase has a lot of merit.The combination of wood, patina and black lacquer makes it very expressive.The style of the simplified classics of the XIX century (minimalism of its time) with a clear geometry of forms gives it a stylistic versatility. It will be appropriate both in a classic interior and in a modern one. Such a showcase, filled with home collections, can traditionally be located in the living room. But that it can be used in the study (for books) and in the nursery (for toys), and in the hallway (for shoes), and - why not? - in the bathroom (for towels). "
