Some people believe that in order to implement ideasInterior design definitely requires a lot of space, and standard one-room apartments, in which there is no possibility to even allocate a separate room for a bedroom, are arranged anyhow. We completely disagree and will show you 5 examples of how Russian designers managed to create small masterpieces, solving complex problems in conditions of space shortage No room to turn around? So what, a creative approach works not only in palaces. Do you think that in a small apartment you can live either brightly or comfortably? The projects that you will see have one thing in common: their owners did not want to sacrifice comfort, beauty, or coziness. The results are completely different, but all are done perfectly. Sweet home This project was completed in a one-room apartment of only about 35 square meters, in a II-68 series house, for a respectable married couple. Of course, they wanted to get a quality sleeping place even in a room combined with a living room. Designer Marina Sarkisyan placed the bed closer to the window so that the owners could wake up with the rays of the sun, and separated the sleeping area with a partition with a built-in display case physically, and with wallpaper with a pattern of hydrangeas — visually. Opposite the bed there is a small table for a laptop. The living area is decorated with elements of classic styles and is a light, cozy space, not overloaded with details. Attention was also paid to the loggia — now you can store things in the built-in closet and even receive guests over a cup of tea. Marina Sarkisyan, designer:— I like how joyful the interior turned out thanks to the color and lighting solution. In a living room combined with a bedroom, well-thought-out zoning is a must, and a partition with built-in display cases is a practical idea. And I'm glad that the owners liked the wallpaper with a pattern of hydrangeas. sarkisyan-marina.arxip.com An apartment of a far from poor student A student who is open to modern design trends lives in an apartment of 48 square meters. He happily agreed to use a concrete wall in the interior. The kitchen is also decorated with the same material, and exposed wires and light bulbs play on the ideas of a very fashionable . Designer Tatyana Shishkina prudently planned enough storage space, including in the cabinets behind the headboard. And the bed itself is hidden behind sliding panels made of planks. The matte gray tone of the finish and textiles will undoubtedly calm the owner and contribute to the excellent assimilation of knowledge. It also makes a great background for vibrant paintings and posters. Tatyana Shishkina, designer:— A calm color scheme will help the owner focus on his studies — there are enough bright events in a student’s life. His main wish was: “everything fashionable and modern,” and it’s good that he liked the use of such a material as concrete and lamps with exposed wires. I like the overall laconicism of the interior — it’s good for relaxing, for parties, and for working on school assignments. inroom.guru Bright accents for the young and stylish The project was completed by interior designer Stepan Bugaev for a young girl who is fond of dancing. Now she lives alone, but is already thinking about a future family, so all requests were taken into account. To increase the usable space, the loggia was combined with the kitchen area. The living room was conditionally divided by the bed structure and live plants, and the bed itself was installed on a wooden podium. There is a storage system connected to the work area near the wall. Bright and memorable accents of the interior are in the textiles and on the poster. Stepan Bugaev, interior designer - Wecame up with an interior that does not resemble the standard ideas of what a typical girl’s home should be like. We wanted to take into account the wishes and individual values of the owner. The main goal was to create a comfortable place to live and fill the apartment with modern bright accents. Loft and constructivism The area of this studio apartment is 51 square meters, and it is located on the 45th floor. Therefore, it was important for the owners to have a panoramic view from the window from all points of the recreation area. In addition, the space had to be convenient for receiving 10-12 guests at a time, without losing a full-fledged sleeping place and plenty of storage space. Designer Daria Misyura solved these problems with the help of the constructivism style, known for its rational use of space, clear geometry and color division, as well as elements of the loft style. A transformable sofa bed and thoughtful zoning added functionality, but did not allow the space to lose its cheerfulness, which is provided by red, white and black decorative triangles cut out of tiles on a light background. Daria Misyura, designer:— The color and geometry of this interior make it memorable. The natural wood grain and decorative stone immediately attract attention. And, of course, the opportunity to enjoy a panoramic view from the 45th floor determined the design of the entire recreation area. dashamisura.ru Apartment for a bachelor The task of designers Yanina Filippova and Violetta Nikitina was to create an interior that was open and at the same time restrained and spectacular. The layout was determined by the fact that the owner did not insist on the standard location of the recreation and guest reception area opposite the TV — he was ready to give it up altogether. And thanks to the owner's love of minimalism in the arrangement, a modest kitchen, dining area, sleeping area and hallway with a spacious closet were placed on an area of 36 square meters. Visually, the space is divided by a clear line of lamps and the contrast of black and white in the decoration of the walls and ceiling. Violetta Nikitina and Yanina Filippova, designers:— The apartment turned out to be masculine, laconic, but at the same time modern and cozy. The interior is made complex and interesting by very simple design techniques: contrasting combinations in the design of the walls, mirrors that create the effect of space extending far beyond the head of the bed, natural materials that add uniqueness. insdesign.ru
