This interior of the living room was created for a countryhouse belonging to a family of five people - mom, dad and three daughters. Heroes live in a private home since 2011. The house has two floors and an attic. The living room is located on the sunny side, very light, can safely be considered the heart of the house.
The hostess of the house is a creative person, a make-up artist. The family is very fond of sports and therefore spends free time actively - bicycle, downhill skis, rollers.
As the functional wishes are expressedwas the following: the allocation of a cabinet and library area for mom and dad, a room for leisure, reception of guests with the opportunity to watch your favorite films and play quiet games for children and adults.
The family loves your nest with love. In the house everyone wants to have a corner, a place for creativity. Heroes love to receive guests, so the atmosphere of hospitality was a priority.
Style preferences of the family tended tomodern classics, but also to bold stylistic solutions, customers were ready. Color preferences - pastel colors with contrasting color solutions. Possible colors of nature, the use of wood and stone.
The designer divided the living room into threeemotional and functional zones, separating the cabinet. The living room turned out to be a regular rectangular shape. The atmosphere of the family estate with elements of the classics was created. In it, the characters will spend their family leisure near a noisy metropolis. 
The living room with the bay window was divided into several zones taking into account the wishes of the customers. The result is the following:
- 7.1 sq. M. m - entrance area with the entrance to the living room, the kitchen and the stairs to the basement;
- 5.1 square meters. m - stairs to the basement and to the 2nd floor;
- 18.6 square meters. m - a zone of communication, with upholstered furniture, a coffee table and TV, including the area at the stairs where the designer placed a small ottoman and a wine cabinet;
- 9.6 sq. M. m - a fireplace zone with a library and two armchairs;
- 5.5 sq. M. m - cabinet, located in the bay window. From the main living room the designer separated it with a partition with a glass door-compartment.
The total area of the living room is 45.9 square meters. m.
The customers have three daughters, many family events that you want to capture, and regular family photo sessions. It was suggested to arrange a family gallery.
As a zoning element, the designerused a partition of light metal. It is placed on a bookcase and in itself has become an art object. Plus, its use is that you do not have to drill walls every time, photos and children's drawings are placed in a frame and suspended on a partition.
In fact, from one living room it was possible to make two rooms with three functional zones: a library with a fireplace for quiet conversations, a family communication and reception area with TV and a private office. 
The project uses classical techniques innumber of which is symmetry. The family regularly hosts guests. Therefore, the designer used some characteristic techniques for country estates. Each zone has become a kind of room for customers' interests. A library with roomy closets, next door is an office in which parents can talk, work or read privately. Reception area with a large sofa and armchairs.
The designer took into account the wishes of the heroes and added to the basic tranquil gamut small bright accents in the form of upholstery of some pieces of upholstered furniture.
The color of the walls is pastel, smoky-foggy -ash-gray with a touch of turquoise in the living room and beige with a touch of olive in the office. The ceiling and stucco molding are creamy white. Such shades are close to natural, comfortable for visual perception and help to relax after a hard day.
Bright accents - carpets, which combine a range of walls and furniture.
The designer uses traditional objects and interprets them in a modern way. 
Fireplace - classic in shape, with built-inThe chimney: inherently uneasy, it is faced with small mirror tiles, which makes it easier. There are candles in it. In support of the idea of a fireplace next to the seats, the designer placed a modern dovnitse from the plexiglas, in which lie the logs. Mirror from another chair - a similar in form magazine. The customer is professionally fond of make-up, for sure she buys many profile publications.
The fireplace often has skins - trophieshunter, but the owners of this house are modern, go in for sports, so the designer found a carpet in the form of a surfboard, which perfectly emphasizes their hobbies.
Over the fireplace mirror, similar could be placed andin real estate. Armchairs with classic already "ears" stand on modern straight, not curved or twisted legs. A bright spot - a wine cabinet at the stairs, as if brought by family from travel.
The designer decided to support the idea of the connection of times and instill in children the idea of family values and traditions. 
For the zoning of the living room, a custom-made bookshelf with a light partition on top was used.
The ceiling in the living room is 2.7 meters, but the designerdecided not to lower it, so the main coverage - overhead spots. In the area of the library, communication and in the office they are used as an additional light, the main lighting in these zones is chandeliers. In each zone, she has her own character. They combine stucco decor - ceiling rosette and color solution.
The lighting is two-level. One - ceiling, the second - table lamps and floor lamps.
Several scenarios of light will allow customers to spend time actively when using all elements or arrange a night of reading in the light of a lamp or floor lamp, climbing with their feet on a sofa or couch. 
Carpets in each zone - with their own character and with their own pattern. In the communication zones and the fireplace they are brighter, in the office - pastel scales.
Fabrics for upholstery in matching colors. The designer used a mix of monophonic, classical floral and modern geometric ornaments.
In the zone of the living room there is a bright spot - a berry-colored couch, a calm sofa, with accent pillows. A compact armchair is studded with companion fabrics.
In the area of the library, the balance of the brighta berry chair and a calm beige are chairs for the father and mother, the upholstery emphasizes masculinity and femininity: the man's chair is made of dense smooth fabric, the female one is soft and velvety.
