Rather, it is a variation on the theme of Scandinavian interiors, with adjustments in favor of comfort and coziness.
Despite the modest size of the apartment,The designer managed to place everything necessary: a functional kitchen area, a dining area for 6-8 seats, as well as a recreation and reception area. It is obvious that hospitable and welcoming hosts live here.
The kitchen is arranged very compactly.The space is used effectively, but not overloaded with hanging shelves. The work area of the kitchen has increased due to the placement of the countertop along the window. Apparently, the owners of the apartment like to cook and often eat at home: there is quite a lot of space for storing dishes and other kitchen utensils, and there is a spacious sink. Our opinion: - Please note: if you move bar stools to the window, you can use this part of the countertop as a bar counter, which is very convenient for breakfasts and snacks.
The color scheme of the interior is quite unusual:On the one hand, there are traditional light walls and white furniture. On the other hand, there is a fairly wide variety of pastel shades that organically combine with each other. Evgeniya Ignatova, interior designer: - The customers - a young family - asked to create the lightest and least overloaded interior possible. Love for European with a slight Scandinavian flavor united everything in this project. In the future, the customer plans to create paintings for her interior herself. ignatova-interiors.ru
Please note:In the recreation area with a fireplace, the walls are painted gray, close to the cold shade of concrete. Thanks to this, the flames of the fireplace and the armchair with unusual upholstery, contrasting, look even more cozy accents. Our opinion: - Cute little things belonging to the owners of the apartment add coziness to the apartment. Books, souvenirs from trips, mini-collections - all this helps to make the space more lived-in and personalized.
