An attic with bright details, unexpected solutions and a whole piggy bank of ideas for your dream home
This vibrant project has a huge number ofunusual and even unexpected solutions. You can look at this attic forever, constantly discovering new unnoticed details. We assume that living in such a space is even more interesting. Gaik Asatryan, architect

The lighting method was determined by the configuration of the attic space. Mainly LED profiles were used. The only exceptions are the cable system and the chandelier above the mezzanine.
The color scheme is based on contrasting colors,There are three main ones. This is the teak parquet on the mezzanine, chosen for functional reasons (open bath and sink). The second color is the parquet on the floor and wall behind the stairs (brushed wenge, painted in gray-blue color). And the third is the emerald Bretz sofa, creating an active spot right in the middle of the loft space. This project uses bright colors on the verge of incompatible. But due to the shape and materials, the architect managed to ensure that they not only do not interfere with each other, but also complement each other.

— The most valuable thing, as in any project, isthe gratitude of the client and the understanding of the architect that people will enjoy and live comfortably in his brainchild. I primarily solve functional problems. If they can be solved, then the aesthetics will succeed by itself.
The following items were custom made for this project:
- corner cabinet on mezzanine (parquet - wenge, mirror, leather);
- headband (natural leather);
- bathtub box (base - matte plastic, cladding - Anjasora Flextone 61-122 FS1004 translucent, LED backlight);
- wardrobe in the hallway;
- stairs (metal, glass, wood);
- part of the kitchen;
- shower system of plastic (except for the nozzles, of course);
- plastic cupboard in the shower room (pictured only in the reflection of the glass);
- all wooden decor;
- bench;
- grill in the shower.
Kitchen - Aster factory.
Sofa, rug and coffee table in the living room -Bretz. The choice in favor of this model was due to the desire to have a large sofa on which you can place a sleeping place for one guest, while not having to unfold the sofa. This option was ideal. The owner chose the color, the architect did not object. The rocking chair under the stairs is Smania.

— The best thing for me in this project is the decisionconstruction and design of the staircase. Also some experiments with materials, forms and functionality. For example, the same "lying" shower with a bench made of teak and a bath, after the sofa, is the second center of the composition. The worst thing in the project were the builders, who barely finished the construction in a year and a half.
Bathtub on the mezzanine - Kaldewei Centro Duo 1 (right130 170*75), sink - unknown manufacturer (purchased on eBay by the customer), toilet in the toilet - suspended Duravit Stark 3 with SensoWash bidet seat.
In the shower, the sink on the countertop and toilet are Alessi One. The shower is made of plastic and has nozzles by Hansgrohe Black, and the shower head is Grohe.
Benjamen Moor paint was used almost everywhere. Wallpaper was used on the mezzanine in the toilet, and textured Meteore 8 paint was used on the walls with the TV.
In the shower, the paint is a warm shade of white OC-58,moisture-resistant semi-gloss and regular eggshell in other places. The sloping ceiling is covered with a stretch matte fabric. Other solutions were fraught with cracks, since the attic roof "walks" under the wind load.
The floor on this floor was chosen purely for aesthetic reasons, it was the customer's choice, and it fully justified itself, creating a light, almost transparent atmosphere.
There are only three doors (except the entrance one), all three areglass paneling by Rimadesio, without trims. The toilet door is ceiling-high, so that when the door is open, it is possible to reveal the attic staircase leading to the utility attic. It is located along the entire perimeter of the flat ceiling above the mezzanine.
