Today we will tell you how to make a typical, completely uncomplicatedremarkable cottage near Moscow, the designer managed to make a stylish country house. White columns, bright colors, European spirit and 240 meters This country house is located in a very picturesque and quiet place - the village of Voskresenskoye, Noginsk district, Moscow region. The customers purchased it together with a large plot of land and wanted to create a modern and bright interior with plenty of free space and air, while avoiding cold minimalism. But the house needed a major overhaul, for which designer Yulia Telnova was invited. Yulia Telnova, interior designer Received higher education at the B & D Institute (Institute of Business and Design) in the faculty of practical design. For over 7 years she has been designing interiors of varying complexity, mainly apartments and country houses. telnova.ru Related articles The owners of this house not so long ago became a family: a husband and wife with two small children. They lived in Germany for several years and then moved to Moscow. The husband is in business, connected with construction of power plants, and the wife is a pediatrician, a passionate person and a caring mother. They are so accustomed to the modern European style and comfort, that they decided to settle outside the city.
The choice fell on a plot of 40 acres.The previous owners built a house and landscaped the area, where there was room for a small football field, an orchard, berry bushes, lawns for recreation, flower beds and flower gardens, decorative ponds and a barbecue area. But the house, built back in the 90s, required major repairs.
The layout of the house is very successful and correspondsthe needs of the whole family. The basement is half occupied by utility rooms, and the rest of the space is occupied by a recreation room, a small sauna and a font. The first floor houses the kitchen and public areas, as well as a staircase to the attic. And in the attic there is a spacious hall with a large round supporting column and private rooms. Yulia Telnova, designer: - Several windows on the second and first floors are arched, which initially confused the customer - she considered this a big drawback and wanted to hide it. Later, I managed to convince her that the shape of these windows is harmonious and does not spoil the impression of the interior at all. The ceiling height of the first floor is slightly higher than the other levels and is slightly more than three meters.
One of the main tasks at the initialstage, it was optimal to use the given layout of the house. There were no problems with this, and the design work went very quickly. The designer wanted to reflect in the interior not only the individuality of each member of this family, but also their experience of living abroad. The concept was based on a restrained color scheme, laconic design and functionality. Yulia Telnova, designer: - Blue turned out to be one of the customer's favorite colors. We played it out in the main rooms of the house. The monochrome range of these zones is complemented by color accents. I deliberately did not want to overload and complicate the interior with additional structures and excess decor, relying on high-quality and beautiful finishing materials, furniture and interior items. This way the space looks much more spacious and "cleaner".
The palette of accents is based on a combinationcold and warm colors. Blue and its shades look harmonious next to the warm colors of textiles, natural stone and walnut wood. The alternation of large volumes and smaller details saturates the composition.
Private spaces are more comfortable and reflectcharacter and preferences of each family member. Warm colours prevail here. In the nursery, one of the walls is covered with wallpaper with formulas. The background of this wallpaper matches the cabinet furniture in cappuccino colour. Orange and shades of green complement this calm palette and reflect the preferences of the owner of the room. Yulia Telnova, designer: — We deliberately tried to make this nursery not so childish. The boy is already at the threshold of the age when preferences and hobbies change quickly. Therefore, the room can change with him. But the daughter has a typical girl's room. Pink, light and soft.
In the bedroom the main color is white.The headboard elements have a wood texture, the warm color of which harmoniously combines with the deep turquoise of the textiles. This composition attracts attention from the very entrance. The bathroom is bright. Natural light from the dormer window is reflected in a large mirror, and the rather saturated color of the walls does not look gloomy. The warm and dark shade of the furniture color is combined with porcelain stoneware, the geometric pattern of which softens the severity of the bathroom.
The layout of the rooms in this house was alreadywas set, and there was no way to change it radically. The only thing that was changed was to combine the kitchen and living room. This allowed us to visually increase the space several times. The highlight of the kitchen-living room was the large tempered glass in the bar console area. It is attached to the wall and painted a deep dark blue. It greets guests from the hallway especially effectively. Yulia Telnova, designer: - Another very important alteration was to increase the height of the doorways on the first and second floors. This idea arose in parallel with another - to use blue in the paintwork of the second-floor hall. Copper lampshades completed the picture. Then I suggested a glass staircase railing so that all this beauty could be seen when climbing from the first floor. Thus, the walk-through hall acquired its individuality and expressiveness.
