Apartment in minimalist style on Michurinsky Avenue: more light, less color

How to create a light and cozy interior, whileusing a color palette of just two shades? Designer Ekaterina Bachurina knows the answer to this question. Today, specially for etk-fashion.com, she will tell and show how she managed to make the customer's dream come true. Today, interiors in the style are very popular. This style involves the use of simple geometric shapes, a minimal amount of furniture and decor, as well as a light color palette, which is based on the play of halftones. We invite you to take a look at the interior created by the designer Ekaterina Bachurina in a two-room apartment on Michurinsky Prospekt. Katerina Bachurina Katerina Bachurina graduated from the Moscow State Pedagogical University. Stroganov with a degree in Artistic Interior Design, finalist of competitions for designers and architects. Creative credo: to be an artist, to live several lives at the same time, because in order to design a good interior, you have to “live the life of the customer” yourself. The client of the project wanted the rooms to be isolated and the interior itself light. The main idea was to fill the space with the maximum amount of light, while using the minimum color palette. The space of the room was initially ideal for creating in the minimalist style: the apartment is large, the ceilings are high enough. The apartment was without partitions,accordingly, there was a need for redevelopment. During the installation, the wardrobe was reduced, the visualization of which, unfortunately, is not yet available. The area of the dressing room was 7 square meters. m. The area of the living room in the final project was almost 24 square meters. m, dining room with kitchen occupied 18.5 square meters. m, and the bedroom - 11.25 square meters. m. is built on all shades of beige and ocher colors. In this regard, it was necessary to properly arrange the lighting: so that when a warm light source hits the surface of furniture, walls and floor, there is no distortion of the shades towards the green spectrum. The designer was perfectly able to cope with this task (for which she and the designer). Furniture and finishing materials:kitchen - to order (Alno); living room - Nara, Sachi, Sancal folk, IKEA, Dupen; bedroom - BoConcept; bathrooms - tiles Atlas Concorde Mark, Atlas Concorde Marvel; walls - Benjamin Moore paint; floors - Tavolini, Carta oak solid; kitchen - Arabescato Vagli marble; doors - Solo. Strict modern interior in minimalism stylewas supplemented by classical elements (cornices, skirting boards). It turned out an organic combination, which ideally suited the general interior stylistics of the apartment. The most important thing for me in this project is the absence of a framework, of any restrictions. I was able to express myself both as an artist and as a designer.
