What is good about the fashionable “ecru” palette, why does the home have a living room, how to create a feeling of comfort and stability in the interior? Tells the architect Maxim Prunkov

Maxim Prunkov: “To create bright and expressive interiors, which is why I try to lead the entire design cycle - from the box to the interior. This approach allows you to get a functional and at the same time unbanal interior. For example, in one of the private houses built according to my project, there is an unusual room - an office-living room. As a rule, an office is a separate room, often also located in a private part of a house. But this is not the case, because the owner had to arrange a meeting room on the first floor of the house. They did not allocate a separate room for it, but decided to integrate it into the living room space. HERE DECIDED TO ORGANIZE AND CABINET ZONE with a desk. Please note that wood paneling of walls is a typical solution for a classic cabinet, and cabinet furniture looks very organic against such a background. We put the table under the balcony, placed a library with cupboards and a place for reading on the balcony. The recreation area is designed as a home cinema with high-quality appliances and cozy furniture. CABINET-LIVING ROOM DUAL SPACE GIVES SALM and significance, which is the best suited for business negotiations.

Different spaces require different techniques. To choose something interesting for yourself, start by answering the question: what do I want and why? For example, open space - to create a feeling of light and lightness, or, conversely, a closed, chamber interior - to create an atmosphere of reliability and stability.

Proper lighting and interior palette are very important. Choosing the right range, let's again think about the systems approach and understand what we want in this case. Suppose, using the color solution in the gamut "ecru", we get a light-filled, cozy, warm, restrained-aristocratic in spirit interior. EKRYU PALETTE IS ONE OF THE MOST BELOVED BY ME, it is a whole range of shades - from ivory to unbleached flax.

Pay attention to the compliance of the exterior and interior. Having built an architecturally interesting house, it would be strange to “not hold out” the interior. And vice versa, when the “amber room” is hidden in the red brick monster, this is also quite strange. To create facades, it is better to use natural materials - marble, sandstone or chamotte clay, which, when properly processed, has the appearance of a stone and is a convenient material for the realization of any fantasy. I prefer casting to forging, but you can also use forging, the main thing is THIS SHOULD BE A REAL ART ARTICLES.. In general, I am for variability. You can decorate the facade with crystal basard or LALIQUE, but there is also an alternative in the form of crystal and colored glass, made by hand by Russian manufacturers. And remember the sense of proportion! Then your dream house will definitely take place. ”
