in the old house of St. Petersburg was completelyredone From the non-residential premises of an irregular shape, a surprisingly comfortable housing was created thanks to the efforts of two charming authors working in the Architales studio. Georgy successfully graduated from SPSUACE, while Olga studied abroad in Asia, graduated from American University. They started a creative way together 7 years ago, but only 4 years later they opened their own studio. What the designers themselves say about their work: “We constantly follow the projects of famous creative personalities of our time. We really like the works of Andre Putman, Axel Werwaudt, Jacques Grange and Takashi Sugimoto. ” Architales professionals specialize in creating designer interiors. But lately, the number of objects created from personal sketches and sketches has increased noticeably in studio projects. All parts are created only from natural materials. The area of ​​the apartment, which Olga and George began to work on, was about 40 squares, but after a cardinal redevelopment, it increased by more than 10 square meters. meters

Remodeling

At first this apartment was not at all likeroom intended for people. It was a dilapidated building, not equipped with a bathroom. As for the ceilings, in this house of the old layout they were at the level of three meters, and the height of the building itself was almost five. Due to this height, it was possible to create the second tier, where they placed the bedroom and the bathroom.

Customer wishes

Since the customer did not plan to personally live in thisapartment, and was going to rent it out, he wanted to make a rationally planned space for a comfortable temporary stay. During the discussion of this project, the idea of ​​creating a second tier came by itself. It also turned out that the client, like the designers, loves natural materials.

Style Selection

As for the choice of style, then specificwishes the customer has not expressed. The main task was to make a multifunctional and comfortable room. For the second level, they allocated as much space as was necessary to place a bed there. Thanks to this, it was possible to make the living room as bright as possible. The whole house was filled with objects that have their own amazing story. As a result of the design, taking into account all preferences, wishes and requirements, an interesting modern eclecticism turned out.

Lighting and shades

Work with lighting - so say the creatorsthe interior was the most interesting thing. In order to illuminate such a large space well, a unique chandelier was designed and created. In her favor inclined the inefficiency of point lighting in this apartment. But they decided to illuminate the second tier with floor lamps, the large lamps of which surprisingly echo the chandelier. To give the room an intimate atmosphere, we decided to install a wall lamp with candles. Their fire, reflected from the plane of the mirrored plates of interesting shape, create an amazing play of light. As for the color in the interior. Since there were no wishes, we decided to use monochrome walls and textiles. This favorably emphasizes the wooden parts and the old brickwork. As for bright accents, they are present on the paintings of paintings and soft pillows.

Vintage and vintage details

Experts from the design studio adore all ancientand old, and in this design, they were able to point this out to their addiction. The apartment did not begin to plaster the old brickwork from the brick both on the walls and in the window openings. After the plaster was removed from the ceiling, the designers discovered the wooden beams, they were cleaned and left unpainted, and in several places you can even notice sticking bark. Take a closer look at the photo, and you will be able to notice the antique chests and suitcases that help to give this room a special look of the “historic house”.

Furnishings

When they started furnishing, it turned out thatbudget is not great. Therefore, preference was given to low-cost items. The choice of furniture, the design of the stairs, the lighting - all this was created with the consent of the client. For this apartment was created a construction for the second tier with a comfortable small staircase, equipped with a railing. Behind the panels, located at an angle, shelves and a bathroom were hidden. The kitchen counter and a few more unique items that perfectly fit into the design were created according to the designs of the architects of the studio. The TV stand, which now contains a large number of CDs, was made from an old suitcase that was once popular. But the chandelier, which is located in the main room, created at the Northern plant.

our pride

That's what Architales studio designers think aboutproject: “Pride - it sounds too pretentious. We managed to solve many difficult problems, and we are satisfied with our achievements. The second tier with spacious closets and a concealed bathroom, a chandelier and a staircase can be attributed to successful elements. ”
