Can a classic interior be bright and light?and relevant? How to organically combine elegant shapes and bold colors? Let's study the issue using the example of the interior of a three-room apartment in Moscow by designer Anastasia Muravyova. We are used to thinking that classics are something ceremonial, prim, and obliging. An abundance of gold and brocade, massive furniture, heavy curtains from floor to ceiling... But is this always true? Of course not. To get rid of such stereotypes, just look at the project of this three-room apartment in Moscow. And how this classic interior, full of bright colors, air, and Parisian spirit, was born, says designer Anastasia Muravyova, whose works we have already introduced you to .

Designed for a family of three: a married couple and their school-age son. The kitchen and living room areas are combined, there is a bedroom and . Due to the location of the windows and load-bearing walls, a fourth room was also outlined in the plan, very small in area, but with two windows. This had to be used, and Anastasia suggested allocating it for an office or a dressing room. The customers settled on the second option, and as a result, a kind of boudoir for the hostess was obtained near the main bedroom. Anastasia Muravyova, designer-decorator: — The clients contacted me even before the house was commissioned. They wanted to get an interior concept in advance, think everything over without rushing, and then quickly start repairs as soon as possible. Therefore, I started working on the project with planning and visualization, based on the documents received from the developer, and made more detailed working drawings at the next stage, since precise measurements of the object were made later.
Features of the style The project was completed inclassic style. The clients and the designer came to the common opinion that it should, firstly, be light, and secondly, not be overloaded with details. At the same time, Anastasia noted that they like interiors that are characterized by a light formality, which can sometimes be found in apartments with history. In this regard, the project used many stucco elements, mirrors, parquet with a herringbone pattern and chandeliers with crystal pendants. Anastasia suggested making the height of the doorways slightly higher than the standard - 2.3 m with a ceiling height of 3 m, and also equipping the doors with decorative upper cornices.
Anastasia Muravyova, decorative designer:— For myself, I called it the “Parisian apartment style” and was inspired by the corresponding interiors, which can easily be found in the most authoritative glossy magazines. Living room It was decided to make white walls in the living room and hall — in combination with the stucco molding, this immediately makes the interior elegant and does not overload the space. Bright accents found their rightful place on a neutral light background: chairs in the dining area and a chaise longue by the window. In the center of the living room composition is a decorative fireplace.
Bedroom It was decided to keep the bedroom incalm light tones. The main accent was chosen behind the headboard, on which, as if with a pencil, classic flowerpots were drawn. Anastasia found them at Designers Guild, as well as the companion fabric for the wardrobe.
Children's The customers asked the designer to makeroom in the traditional blue tones for boys, but Anastasia decided to suggest that they move away from this solution and developed two options for visualizing the children's room: in the desired blue and orange-green tones. At the same time, possible variations of the layout of this room were illustrated.
Anastasia Muravyova, decorative designer:— I always recommend making a nursery for a younger schoolchild a little "for growth", because children grow very quickly, and only during the project implementation the child will move to at least the next grade. It is also important that the nursery in a classic interior does not stand out from the general context, but at the same time is stylish and fresh. Bathroom In the bathroom, it was decided to stick to a more laconic design and use a maximum of natural colors and textures. By the way, this technique is used quite often: in a classic house or apartment, the bathroom is sometimes more restrained in style and color, and typical classic elements are given to other rooms.
Anastasia Muravyova, decorative designer:— I was inspired by the tiles from the Beyond collection by the Aparici factory, imitating onyx slices, and I discovered them for myself thanks to the article Roomble! Timeframe and materials At the moment, the process has not yet entered the implementation stage, but it is assumed that such an object will take about 4-6 months, depending on the project financing schedule and the delivery of custom-made items. Anastasia Muravyova, designer-decorator: — Perhaps, during the finishing works and interior assembly, some amendments to the proposed concept will arise, but already at the visualization stage I try to include very specific items of certain brands in the project. In this project, I used furniture, lighting and mirrors from such brands as Mis en Demeure, Riva, Baga, Marie's Corner and La Murrina, plumbing and faucets by Teuco, etc. Thus, the interior assembly process will be quite fast and well-planned.
