The original interior design was made in a minimalist style. For the owners, young couples, a special role was played by the functionality, convenience and modern look of the space. In the process, the author of the project Tatyana Mironova together with customers decided not to be limited to one direction. So the interior was enriched with elements of classics and accents in the spirit of the colonial style.

“When planning the space, the architect always solves a kind of puzzle. At our disposal was an apartment that has a rather complicated, irregular shape, ”says Tatiana. The living room was located in the part of the apartment where there were large, full-height windows and an exit to a spacious terrace. The kitchen is located in an elongated rectangular space adjacent to the living room. The architects took a bold step and attached a balcony to the kitchen, thereby further extending the oblong kitchen space. The risk is fully justified. On the former balcony appeared a kind of dining room, calculated only for two. The table in the "frame" of high bar stools is suitable for a leisurely conversation, for dinner by candlelight. Located in the center of the kitchen, the island also serves as a dinner table, for which it is convenient to assemble a large company. The division of the kitchen into zones helped to visually smooth out the imperfections of its space. Two bedrooms and a bathroom are arranged in a single line, separating the public areas from the private apartments by a corridor.

Integral perception of the interior contributes to a single color solution for the entire project. The walls of the living room and kitchen are painted in a complex beige-gray color. According to Tatiana MironovaThis is one of her most favorite colors. The calm and at the same time unusual shade looks noble, absorbs excess light (and there is a lot of it in the apartment due to the large glass area) and is an excellent backdrop for other, more saturated colors. The curtains, which draped not only the high windows of the living room, but also the opposite wall, were matched to the walls. “We wanted to create the impression that the leisure zone is a kind of open terrace,” explains Tatiana. Easy quoting of the colonial style emphasizes this effect. In addition to the calm beige-pearl tones, textiles imitating the skin of wild animals were used for upholstering furniture. African motifs are harmoniously combined with notes of Chinese style. The calm gray-beige gamut is complemented by ocher and red - one of the main colors in Chinese culture. The antique table with carved legs in the form of dragons, lamps, ethnic accessories and carpets bring an element of oriental exotic into the interior.

Ceiling lamps are selected in a classic style. Crystal chandeliers in the bedroom and living room, chandeliers, lamps over the island in the kitchen create a solemn mood. For lining the floor in public premises used natural stone light milky shade, and in the private area, the floor is laid with parquet. Kitchen countertops, bedside tables in the bedroom are made of marble. Bright accents in the spirit of the colonial style make the strict minimalist basis of the interior more vivid.

Project author Tatyana Mironova: “The project has come a long way from minimalism towards eclecticism with a colonial bias. Exotic notes and classical features made the space softer, more comfortable and at the same time bright. This is the advantage of eclecticism: elements of different styles form an individual portrait of the interior. ”
