It would seem that classic English furniture suggests a strict and academic style - "in the traditions." In the new showroom Nabokoff (Moscow, 12/8 Alabyan St.), this principle is not that it is violated, rather, it is combined with an ultrafashionable approach to the interior. Pink-gray-blue gamma, large-format banners with images of roses and lilies on the floor and walls - all this is not just a decoration. In Nabokoff, this is ideology. Each of the three zones, according to the artist Dmitry Alekseev, has its own symbolism, its own special meaning and its own name. The first and so far the only one (the other two in the project) is called "Paradise Gardens". Paradoxically, the English theme has not left the interior, on the contrary, the style of the British Empire in this interpretation has become even more English.
