The project of the architect Maria Sharapova is amazing in scope: she turned several communal apartments located on two floors of a house in the center of St. Petersburg into a real palace

The apartment occupies two floors of the mansion, in which before the revolution were the apartment house of Admiral A.V. Kolchak and personal apartments of his family. This circumstance, as well as the convenient location in the center of the city, parking, the presence of a restaurant in the same building, was of crucial importance when the customer chose an apartment to receive high-ranking guests. The current look of the apartments doesn’t resemble the atmosphere of the beginning of the last century, if only because they were thought of as a representative palace, which means that the luxurious classical decoration was predetermined. “I don’t know a single representative interior, which would be sustained in a modern style,” says project author Maria Sharapova. - It so happened that they are usually made in the classics. I did not deviate from the established tradition, especially since the status of the future interior was important for the customer. ”
