In this project, the architect managed to embodyquite bold ideas. The most difficult of them is to fit a living room, a nursery, and a bedroom with an office into a modest area. This project attracted us primarily because of its area. The architect had only 30 meters at his disposal, on which he had to fit a living room, a nursery, and a bedroom. Alina Puzhak, the author of the project, managed to do it in the best possible way. Alina Puzhak, architect Graduated from the Novosibirsk State Academy of Architecture and Arts. “I believe that function and form should go hand in hand when it comes to the interior. The place where a person lives, works, develops, influences many processes. Therefore, it is important to make it as comfortable, beautiful, and functional as possible,” says Alina. bigapplehome.ilconte.ru Alina Puzhak, architect: — I got a difficult task. Two rooms separated by a thick load-bearing wall. They needed to be made into a living room, a bedroom for parents with a full-size bed, a bedroom for a 17-year-old teenager, and an office that could be turned into a children's area in the future. I went through many layout options. The customers and I studied the pros and cons of each option in detail and carefully. In the end, we settled on what we have now. It was decided to fence off a room for the eldest son in the living room, and to give the far room to a bedroom and an office, dividing the space into zones with curtains. bigapplehome.ilconte.ru At the beginning of the work, the author discussed with the customersoverall interior concept. The designer looked at all the pictures and photographs of furniture that the customers sent, and based on this, created a warm living space.Turquoise plays the main role in this interiorcolor. It is present in accents, both in the living room and in the bedroom. At the same time, it was decided to use fundamentally different colors in the son's room. Therefore, the brick wall was painted white, a white folding bed was installed, which hides in the closet, and chairs. And accents of red and black were added here.Light certainly helps to separatespace into zones. But due to the very small area, the author decided not to overload this project with groups of light. The main light in the entire apartment comes from small overhead lights on the ceiling. As for additional lighting, in the living room near the TV, metal Arte Lamp Fisherman sconces are placed, which support the brick wall in style. In the bedroom, an Arte Lamp Zanzibar chandelier was hung above the bed, it adds coziness and makes the sleeping area more homely. There are also small sconces above the bed, and the curtains covering the pantry are illuminated by an LED strip. Initially, when designing, customersset the task - to fit in the furniture that can be bought from what is available as much as possible. In particular, from IKEA. All the cabinets and bureaus, as well as the console, bedside tables and shelves were brought from this store. Only the bed with shelves in the eldest son's room was made to order according to the author's sketches - it folds up, is put away during the day and frees up space for studying. It was decided to use in the finishingdecorative plaster, as it is more durable and has a lot of application options. In the living room, in the sofa area, the designer highlighted turquoise accents. This visually expanded the space and made it possible to separate the shelves into a separate storage area. The author suggested making the partition between the living room and her son's room from real brick, so that later she would only cover it with a primer. This gave the interior a natural look and erased the patina of props. The main color of the walls is warm gray in different tones. Editorial opinion: - If you have a small area, this is not a reason to deny yourself comfort. We placed an electric fireplace in a box under the TV so that on long winter evenings you could read a book, lying in bed, and admire the fire. The bedroom and study are a long, narrow space.a space with one window and low ceilings. Therefore, the designer used white at the top, along the entire perimeter of the room. This visually increases the height and gives a little extra air. The color of the walls here is the same as in the bedroom. This is again due to the small area of the room. The author decided not to introduce disorder and use one color so that the space carries a single image. In the office area the bureau is highlighted with the sameturquoise, like the shelves in the living room. And in the future, a baby's crib can be placed here. The apartment was sorely lacking storage space. Therefore, the author found a place for two large wardrobes in the bedroom, and also placed shelves for books and small items on the sides of the box with the TV and fireplace. The fireplace, by the way, is another interesting detail of this interior. Alina Puzhak, architect:— This project was very interesting to me because I did it remotely, being in another city. We communicated with the customers via email and WhatsApp. Without ever seeing each other, we managed to create a comfortable, beautiful living space. It was a real miracle. The customers trusted me completely, consulted on every aspect of choosing lighting, furniture, floors, plaster. The only difficulty was choosing the color of the walls on site. I could not be present, but I gave detailed recommendations and the customers coped with the task. bigapplehome.ilconte.ru
