Creative credo - "Urbanism in architecture, architecture in the interior." mudrogelenko.com This apartment is designed for a married couple whose children have grown up and live separately. The spouses have their own small business and lead an active lifestyle - they visit fitness centers, actively travel around Russia, and also often travel abroad. 
The couple bought an apartment in a new modernHouse on a high floor with a panoramic view, from where you can easily see the main spiers of the Northern capital. This is a good, solid house in the north of St. Petersburg from a good developer - a landscaped area, the presence of a condominium, a concierge on the stairs.

By joining the loggia to the living room (modernThe design of the house is allowed) and making glazing directly from the floor to the ceiling, the authors of the project allowed the maximum possible natural sunlight into the premises - this solution is typical for northern latitudes due to rare and short sunny days. 
As a color basis, architectsUsed a warm light-buffy shade. In this case, as bright large spots used dark, deep eggplant, as well as bright metalized wallpaper from Osborne & Little. The use of contrasting colors in large simple geometric shapes and simple repetitive graphic patterns is also a characteristic feature of the Scandinavian style: in poor daylight color nuances are difficult to distinguish.

Inclusion groups and different light sources at this facility are given special attention (as well as on other projects of this design duo). This comes from the desire to as much as possible to move away from the depressive evening weary perception of space.
