You can look at three things endlessly:burning fire, running water and loft-style interiors. Today we are showing you an example of a minimalist urban loft, in which a solid walnut headboard is adjacent to a wooden whale in the bathroom and a Jamaican flag in the kitchen. Creating an interior for young people is always a special task. It should reflect inner freedom and suit this special period of life, and at the same time not get boring in a few years. The owner of this spacious apartment on Pervomayskaya Street is that very active and successful young man, whose interior should meet all the above requirements. Oksana Tsymbalova, designer and head of the Dom Solntsa workshop, took on the task of making them a reality. Oksana Tsymbalova, designer Graduate of the Law Faculty of Tyumen State University. She radically changed the trajectory of her life, leaving behind a successful career as a department head at Gazprom and following the path of her childhood dream of becoming a designer. In 2015, she graduated from the International School of Design and completed Victoria Yakusha's professional qualification courses in Kyiv, and immediately began to manage projects. Today, Oksana is not only a designer, but also the head of her own workshop, "House of the Sun," and an expert in legal issues for designers. www.artdomsun.com Considering the fairly spacious area and high ceilings, the customer gave preference to a loft - a free, creative and moderately brutal style. The layout turned out to be classic for a loft: almost the entire apartment is one large open space, not cluttered with unnecessary furniture and therefore light, bright and full of air. Glass and brick partitions were used as zoning tools.Oksana Tsymbalova, designer — Discussing withthe technical task given by the customer, we noticed in it a special spirit of freedom and creativity, a rejection of generally accepted norms and unlimited scope for self-expression, the need to create a special interior. That is why we suggested the customer to make a project in the style of minimal urban loft, in other words - an individual interior for frivolous people, free from frameworks and stereotypes. According to Oksana, while developing this project, she was guided primarily by her feelings: she did what the walls “asked for”, as if created especially for the loft.

The brutal finish here is combined with cozy textures: soft sofas, carpet, decorative textiles, and metal shelves are adjacent to green plants and wooden furniture.The kitchen area has a woodenkitchen set with an island. Considering that the customer cooks little, a large, roomy refrigerator is provided. It was decided to move the stove and sink to the island, as the customer wanted to see his guests and communicate with them when he was cooking.

The bedroom area is separated from the common spacebrick and frosted glass partitions, and the main character in it, of course, is a walnut bed with a solid wood headboard. The decor is generally minimalist, but not devoid of bright accents and elegant decor in the form of a telescope and a conceptual poster, not hanging on the wall, as is customary, but leaning against it.
