Minimalism and Art Deco - How to Combine Them Correctlythese original styles in one apartment? What needs to be done to make the white color in the interior “play”? How to place furniture, but at the same time preserve airiness? Interior designer Stepan Bugaev knows the answers to these riddles. And after reading the article, you will also find out. Interior designer Stepan Bugaev has long been pleasantly surprising us with his professionalism and creative approach to work. He creates wonderful spaces in completely different styles: we have already told you about the and interiors of his studio, as well as about the apartment where they are combined. And the “Stay” project amazingly combines minimalism and art deco. And Stepan told us in more detail about the creation of this unique space.
Project of the studio "Victory of Design""The Stay project is a minimalist and art deco space that shows how white can "play" with furniture. The most important thing for the owners of the apartment was to preserve the air. This can be achieved by not cluttering the space with furniture and by minimally dividing the rooms between themselves. The clients are young, energetic city dwellers for whom a home is a personal area for relaxation and privacy. In the interior, they prefer light shades, simple shapes and open spaces.

Project of the studio "Victory of Design"Having preserved the initial parameters of the object - the modern architecture of the house, floor-to-ceiling windows, high ceilings - we achieved complete harmony of minimalism in the interior and exterior. The absence of blind doors between the rooms seems to expand the space. It is a must in the layout
- Isolated dressing room.
- In addition to the main bath there must be a guest shower room.
- In the main bathroom there is a separate bath by the window.
- Furniture should not block large windows on the floor.
- Common area of the bedroom and bathroom, using a partition.
- Large space for bedroom area. In the bedroom there is a bio fireplace.
- Studio kitchen and living room area. In the dining area must necessarily be a dining table for four.
We will select furniture and materials for this projectapproached with special trepidation, because the customers are not turning to us for the first time, and we were fully prepared for the increased attention to the quality and design of the offered items. Snow-white walls, painted with American paint Benjamin Moore, give incredible volume to the already not small apartment.
Project of the studio "Victory of Design"Our opinion: - White color in the interior makes the space lighter and more voluminous. It visually expands the space. White walls allow you to quickly change the interior at the request of the owners and are an excellent background for any decor. Do not think that this color is impractical - modern paints are easy to clean. One of the most important advantages of white in the interior is that in such a space a person feels free. Crystal white is also repeated in the floor coverings, which are made using the self-leveling floor technology. Only in the main bathroom and bedroom the floor is covered with solid moisture-resistant teak wood. The apartment uses floor convectors from the Czech company ISAN, which makes the heating system almost invisible. Zehnder heated towel rails blend in with the walls in the bathrooms.
Project of the studio "Victory of Design"The designer's idea of inconspicuous, built-in furniture and invisible partitions is also reflected in the implementation of lighting. Panzeri lighting is used throughout the apartment, except for the dining area, where a magnificent chandelier from the Dutch company Brand Van Egmond hangs. Our opinion: - Built-in furniture has no frame, it is attached to the walls, ceiling or floor. Furniture of this type is ideal for visually changing the room, as well as for correcting the shortcomings of the walls. The only disadvantage of built-in furniture is that it is designed for a specific room. The main color of the interior is white. It maintains the integrity of the interior and the self-leveling white floor, made in the living room, kitchen, dining room and study areas. The Panzeri Invizible lighting system made it possible to make the interior as minimalistic as possible, without making the evening lighting detrimental. Living room The common area of the kitchen, dining room and living room creates maximum free space and gives the interior airiness. All the furniture in the living room echoes the dining group and the interior elements were selected from the same manufacturer. Sofas - both for the living room and the study - were ordered from the affordable Italian brand Bonaldo. The sofas in both rooms are complemented by armchairs from the Former factory.
Project by the studio "Victory of Design" Kitchen anddining room Completely hidden white matte facades from the German manufacturer Leicht made it possible to make the kitchen uncompromisingly minimalistic. The emphasis is on the dining area, which, in contrast to the kitchen, is made in natural shades of wood. Table and chairs from the Italian brand Arkeos.
Project of the studio "Victory of design" Cabinet Itthe most favorite place of the apartment owner, so the furniture here was selected especially carefully and for a long time. The choice fell on the premium Italian brand Besana, which is the permanent leader in cabinet furniture and is distinguished by its consistently high quality over many years. The office chair of the office brand Arper fits well into the concept of the office and the entire apartment. The wall clock without a dial is ideal for the minimalist design of the office. The strict design of the office is emphasized by contrasting upholstered furniture. The cabinet in the background stands out only with an open shelf finished with wood.

Project of the studio "Victory of design" Bedroom DesignThe bedroom stands out from the overall style of the apartment. The furniture is selected in a classic style. The bed with a voluminous headboard is the center of the composition. The bed, bedside tables and bedside table are Arkeos, and the armchair is from the Italian manufacturer IFAB. The bedroom is designed quite unusually, because it is in this area that the integration of classic furniture into a minimalist interior takes place. A ceiling dome with classic relief decor, which has built-in lighting, is made to support the furniture. The wardrobe according to the designer's sketches was ordered from the Italian factory Former.

Project by the studio "Victory of Design" BathroomThe idea of pure white is also implemented in the bathroom, where the shower walls are finished with seamless tiles from Arch-skin. When choosing plumbing, the emphasis was on a free-standing bathtub from the Italian company Jacuzzi. All other plumbing and furniture for it in the main bathroom were selected from the Italian manufacturer Cielo. The guest bathroom has plumbing from the German brand Duravit. The partitions in both bathrooms are from the Pauli factory. Since the bathroom and bedroom are practically a single room, the bathroom interior is designed as an extension of the room, for example, at the entrance there is a boudoir area. The toilet area inside the bathroom is separated by a frosted glass partition, turning into transparent shower doors and decorated with a sandblasted stretch.
