Московский архитектор, знаток стиля, образец для целого поколения дизайнеров Dmitry Velikovsky поделился с ИНТЕРЬЕР+ДИЗАЙН мнением об именах, стилях и красивых машинах.

Arsenal of funds A good knowledge of art history helps to solve many interior problems. Color, composition, distribution of plans - everything can be a hint. Favorite artists a lot. For example, Piero della Francesco, Andrea Mantegna - the most brilliant Renaissance artist, Michelangelo, sculptors Lorenzo Ghiberti and Donatello, English landscape painter Turner, Van Gogh, Magritte, Malevich. I like the sculpture of Max Ernst and very many works of Anselm Kiefer.

Far East Europeans need to look to the East and find time for Asian voyages. For example, in the ancient Nevarsky city of Bhaktapur or the Borobudur temple complex on Java Island in Indonesia. The monastery hotels on Mount Koya-san in Japan made a strong impression. Rooms with paper walls, no toilets and with a mandatory rise at 6 am.

On the roads Beautiful olddimer cars leave few people indifferent. Across Europe and especially in America, auctions and exhibitions of vintage cars are continually held. I like the models designed by Harley Earl. In general, in the 1950s – 70s many good cars were created.

Color mysteries Pompeii and Herculaneum. The preserved peristyle houses with paintings, multi-figured friezes and the famous Pompeian red tone are an excellent source of inspiration.

Rams and Ivy The key figure of post-war design is the German Dieter Rams. His razors, tape recorders and radios from the 60s, all that Brown is proud of. Nothing superfluous, everything is perfect simple and beautiful, like a mathematical task. Mac and everything that Apple designer Jonathan Aive did is a consistent development of Dieter Rams’s ideas.
