In this spacious Moscow apartment with an area of150 square meters found room for twentieth-century European Art Nouveau, elegant decor with Art Deco elements, and unconventional design solutions The clients, a married couple, approached the Faber Group bureau with a request to create an interior for their 150 sq. m. apartment. After talking with the owners, analyzing their preferences, and creating special moodboards, it was decided to take the style of Austro-Hungarian apartments from the late 1920s as a basis. In the process, the budget decreased slightly and the project became more restrained, but the overall style and key decorative elements remained the same. Elena Franchyan and Boris Matveev, Faber Group Elena and Boris are graduates of the Moscow Architectural Institute. In 2000, they founded their own architectural bureau, Faber Group. Over 16 years of work, many private and public interior projects have been implemented in Russia and other countries. Today, the bureau's staff includes professional designers, architects and decorators who work in any stylistic direction and support the project at all stages. www.faberfm.ru Layout When planning, the initial data of the apartment were primarily taken into account: cardinal directions, structural elements, windows and doorways. The available space was divided into three functional zones: public, guest and private.
Living room-dining room The living room is combined withdining room: the recreation area consists of a sofa and TV group and is visually zoned from the dining table by a carpet. The dining area is located by the window and, due to the natural and white finish, looks spacious and very light, and the bio-fireplace adds the necessary amount of coziness.
There are no bright splashes of color in the living room:the palette is very restrained and elegant. All the furniture is designed in the style of European interiors of the last century, and there is quite a lot of it, so the “dense” interior is diluted with details of light transparent: dishes, the surface of the coffee table, a decorative vase and a chandelier above the dining table.
Kitchen Interesting layout solutiondesigners came up with for the kitchen. Despite the small area of the kitchen, the customers wanted to place quite a lot of furniture along the walls and a table for breakfast and everyday use.
The only place where you can put ittable, there was space by the window, so the radiator was moved to the wall and installed higher than usual. So a full-fledged table with three chairs appeared by the window, and the radiator became a kind of decorative element.
Bedrooms Both bedrooms are designed in the same style as the entire apartment, but a new color appeared in the guest room - soft blue, and shades of blue were added to the main bedroom.
Lighting occupies a special place in the master bedroom: both the chandelier and the bedside lamps were custom-made according to Faber Group designs.
Cabinet Despite its small area — 9square meters, there was room for a full-size desk, a work chair, a sofa and a side table. The interior is designed so that nothing would disrupt the working mood: the color scheme is traditionally neutral, the furniture is comfortable, the decor is calm.
Bathrooms In bathrooms the emphasis isIt is also not based on bright colors, but on high-quality plumbing, elegant furniture shapes and noble materials: marble was used in the wall decoration in both bathrooms.
