Exterior view of 30 square meters afterThe overhaul changed dramatically. The ceilings of the corner room became 15 centimeters higher. It is professionally divided into zones. A huge built-in closet solved the problem of storing things. As a result of the refurbishment, the room intended for rent turned into a favorite place of residence of its owner. The design of this typical Khrushchevka was done by the Moscow studio m2project, represented by the chief architect Maxim Tikhonov. The company has been working with similar projects of individual interiors for three years.
Terms of order
The owner allocated small funds for the implementation of this modest housing project. Based on them, the specialists were able to bring their magnificent ideas to life.
Plan changes
First of all, the internal ones were removedpartitions, mezzanines. Old wooden floors and joists were torn out. The ceiling height is now 290 cm. Plaster was removed from the walls down to the brick. The new layout allowed for economical and rational use of every section of the available space.
Storage system
In the room that connects the living room with the kitchen,dining area and study, one wall is occupied by a built-in wardrobe. Aesthetic design, light color, merging with other surfaces, make it almost invisible. Due to its huge size, it is extremely functional. This solves the storage issue. The apartment is always kept in order.
Lighting
Three windows of the corner apartment let inmaximum amount of sunlight. The designers' brilliant idea was to provide different lighting solutions for each zone. The dining and cooking area is equipped with a white lampshade, the brightness of which varies depending on the height adjustment. Other areas are equipped with original pendants, sconces, and a table lamp.
Choice of shades
The predominant tone was a subdued light grey.The accent element can be considered a dark square where the TV is installed. On the other side of this area there is a bathroom and a kitchen. Movie posters from the middle of the last century and wooden furniture look impressive in the interior.
Situation
Of the total area, the kitchen accounts for onlyfour squares. However, it had room for installing the necessary household appliances. But the specialists had to combine the cabinets. The facades were taken from the products of a well-known industrial company. The frame had to be made to order. The window sill is made of the same material as the tabletop. This increased the working surface of the cooking area. When composing the furniture ensemble of the room, the architects used items that were popular at different times. Here there is a chic folding sofa from IKEA, classic branded chairs. Next to them is a desk made in Romania in the second half of the last century. There is also a mirror from an antique market, which was in fashion at the beginning of the last era.
General plan of the premises arrangement
From three dozen square meters you can get a rather cozy and functional home. Such work requires fresh creative thoughts and a great desire to change everything for the better.
