How to equip the interior of an apartment with a verynon-standard layout? How to make the most of every square meter of space? What colors will make the space bright, saturated, but not flashy? We will show with a real example the owners of this apartment in a new building - a young couple with a child, and initially it was supposed to place offices in the building, but later it was decided to transfer it to the housing stock. The family wanted to create their own ideal family nest, truly cozy and light. And in solving this issue, they were helped by the designer Marina Sargsyan, who, despite all the difficulties, coped with the tasks quite successfully. Marina Sargsyan, designer-decorator We have already introduced you to several of Marina's projects, you can find more information about this designer. The area of the apartment is almost 60 square meters, it is open-plan, and the main difficulty was that there are practically no right angles in it. The main wishes of customers are a separate bedroom for a daughter, a workplace and space for a piano, a dressing room, a separate bathroom, a place for a washing machine, which was eventually hidden behind the doors of the built-in closet at the entrance to the room.
Kitchen-living room
The kitchen-living room is made in shades of juicyturquoise, gray, yellow and white. In order to accommodate a full-fledged kitchen and not go beyond the "wet zones" defined by the developer, the corner in the area of the riser and ventilation duct was leveled. So it became possible to install a built-in refrigerator there. The kitchen turned out to be the letter P, the sink was built under the window (this always makes washing dishes pleasant), and the stove and oven were brought out to a small island, where they managed to build in both a dishwasher and a small bar counter, although it looks more like a breakfast table. There was also a place for a full dining table. The room is filled with light and air from the large number of windows. Marina Sargsyan, designer-decorator: - Stylistically, the interior does not want to be tied to any specific styles, rather it is eclectic: modern elements are successfully combined with classical ones (stucco molding, rosettes for chandeliers), and a few vintage accessories add zest. in the zone allocated for the workplace. This improvised home office is very compact and hidden behind the rounded wall of the dressing room, so it's completely invisible for the view of entering the kitchen-living room. The wooden countertop, which acts as a computer table, is the continuation of the window sill. And for books and documents, there are hanging shelves.
Bedroom
The bedroom is made in gray-beige tones withadding a juicy color to the young grass. The furniture is vintage, the panoramic windows are decorated with Roman curtains with a vegetable print, as well as on the wallpaper at the head of the bed. Despite the small area (9 square meters) the bedroom was very cozy and spacious.
children's room
The nursery is a special place.There will live a gentle girl who is madly in love with horses and is fond of horse riding. The daughter of customers really wanted to sleep on the second tier, while being able to rest at night and below. Therefore, the designer took the idea of an attic bed as a basis, wardrobes were built under the berth. For small things, there are boxes in the steps of the staircase that leads upstairs, and similar box-steps are also used under the work surface built into the window. It was possible to accommodate a sofa-couch, it can serve as an additional berth. And of course, the painting depicting a horse, which will be applied to the wall, attracts special attention. The room has a milky beige color combined with pink and lilac shades.
Corridor
The corridor uses the elegant color of Marsala,which is named. It gives a certain splendor to the interior, meets with joy, and at the same time it looks very organically against the background of active floor tiles. This room is isolated from everyone else, which is why the designer was not afraid to include such a rich shade. Marina Sargsyan, designer-decorator: - Lighting in the apartment is mainly used in the central in combination with local (sconces, floor lamps, table lamps). An exception is a corridor with an added cornice using LED lighting. Spotlights are used in dressing rooms, bathrooms and bathrooms.

Marina Sargsyan, decorator:- The apartment turned out to be bright, saturated, there is a lot of light in it. I was inspired by the openness of customers, their positive attitude, as well as by the interiors of apartments in old buildings in the city of Helsinki, which I had to visit. Musicians, artists, singers lived there ... The interior is for charming, interesting, intelligent people, bright and unlike others. I would really like them to be comfortable and light!
