Домашний кинотеатр в гостиной - это очень удобно. Это вполне в духе традиции: в гостиной раньше всегда стоял телевизор. А до его появления роль своеобразного окна в мир играла живопись. Архитектор Svetlana Litvin объединила эти два архетипа No, it’s not for nothing that in the Russian language the word “film” has such a synonym as “picture”! In the living room hanging big (1.5x2 m) autumn landscape. Top mounted mobile screen. Turning around, he closes the picture. And then it turns off again, and the living room, which gave the cinema hall the rights for an hour or two, is again ready to perform its direct duties - to receive guests. Adult children often come to the owner, friends come for a cup of tea. The architect said that she had planned the kitchen-dining room and living room-cinema hall so as to create a flowing space divided by the bar counter. Under it is hidden unit home theater equipment. The rack is deployed in such a way that the person behind it can clearly see the screen. “The owner wanted the apartment to be modern and functional, but at the same time in the classical style,” says the architect. “Her design and technical stuff are, of course, modern, but there are classic associations in the decor.” Perhaps the pattern of the ceiling with complex illumination resembles the dome of a rotunda, and the patterned silk curtains - palace curtains. In a similar interpretation of the classics, there is a slight nostalgia for the long gone ages, and for the 80s of the twentieth century.
