Modern minimalism is not only the ultimatefunctionality and clear geometry. This interior proves that clean lines, simple materials and thoughtful planning can be truly cozy even despite the abundance of white color
In the architectural environment, the personality of Sergei Nasedkinhas become iconic in recent years, and therefore each new project is perceived as an event. This white interior, named Apartment W_G+BETO by the author, is a vivid illustration of Sergey's signature style - lightness along with monumentality, comfort - with technology. Sergey Nasedkin, architect Graduated from the school with an architectural focus at the Moscow Architectural Institute, the architectural faculty of the State University of Education. Now art director and co-founder of the architectural company ARCH.625. Creative credo: deny the complex, simplify the simple, create space for a person who is not alien to himself. arch-625.ru
The author is confident that the main duty of an architect isThe 21st century is to create conditions for the visual superiority of comfort over technological solutions. That is, a home should be, first and foremost, a space for living, not for functioning.
Modern architectural solutions shouldcreate conditions for easy transformation of zones, adaptation of space to changing life scenarios, with the obligatory possibility of isolation. This approach to design requires solving a huge number of problems.
This is the principle that was implemented in ApartmentW_G+BETO. The materials used in the project are exclusively natural - teak and oak wood, M500 concrete and glass as a tool for uniting the living space and the surrounding nature. The author used white lacquered surfaces as a background for a person.
The layout of the space is linear, largethe rooms flow into each other, and the glass partitions can be curtained. Cabinets, shelves and screens are also used as zoning elements. The white self-leveling polymer floor is not only a background, but also a heating element; the underfloor heating system in combination with radiators helps to "warm up" the space in the cold season.
Modular sofas made in the living room fromnatural linen according to Arch.625 designs, can be adapted to almost any needs - for watching TV, drinking tea or for organizing a sleeping place.
Sergey Nasedkin recommends changing the composition more often, so as not to get tired of the layout. Two walls of the living room are given over to panoramic glazing, and two more are occupied by storage systems.
The kitchen, with white lacquer fronts, takes up the entire 8-metre wall, with 13 cabinets and a low plinth. Behind the front are two refrigerators, a sink, a dishwasher, and a washing machine and dryer.
The center of the entire kitchen space is a Belgian solid teak table by Ethnicraft. Around the table are transparent Italian Polly chairs by Bonaldo.
In another part of the apartment there is a bedroom with panoramic windows. Oak shelves and a bed with a glass headboard are made according to the author's sketches by Arch.625.
The bathroom is a logical continuation of the bedroom; the rooms are separated by a glass partition, but if desired, this space can be isolated using curtains.
