Unfortunately, modern mass construction is notideal. And sometimes such houses are built in which, it seems, it is simply impossible to live. And designers have to solve this problem. This studio apartment is located in the residential complex "Moskovskie Vodniki", which is located in the city of Dolgoprudny in the Moscow region, next to the Klyazminskoye reservoir. The total area of the apartment is 36.5 sq. m. At the moment, it is being renovated - according to the plan proposed by designer-decorator Marina Sarkisyan.
Redevelopment
In order to solve the main problemapartment (there was only one window), it was necessary to make changes to its layout. As a result, it was decided to move the wall between the room and the corridor a little, which allowed to increase its area a little. And the total space of the studio was divided into two rooms (11.3 sq. m each). In order for the light from the window to penetrate into most of the apartment, the partition that divides the space into a bedroom and a kitchen-living room was made sliding and completely glass.
Color and furniture
Associations with cornflowers, summer landscapes,the river and the sky formed the basis of the interior color concept. The main tones are white, beige, light yellow and blue, which became the main theme of this interior. The designer and the customer plan to buy furniture mainly at IKEA. The only exceptions are a sofa, a small armchair, a bed and a dining group - vintage furniture from Gramercy Home. But the partitions between the bedroom and the kitchen and the window are planned to be made to order: it is almost impossible to find what you need in stores.
Marina Sargsyan, decorative designer:"Every new project for me is a different world, a different reality. When creating an interior for another person, I, like an actor, immerse myself in a new image in order to create a harmonious and cozy space for the customer, taking into account my knowledge and experience. And the impetus for creating a specific interior can be a line from a poem, a hero of a novel, a landscape, the smallest detail."
Style
The apartment's image is eclectic, the furniture is modernis combined here with vintage furniture. Old engravings and an antique sewing machine were used as decor. All this creates coziness and gives the interior a certain poetry.
Marina Sargsyan, decorative designer:"When designing an interior, it is worth considering two components: functionality and comfort, without which it is impossible to create a harmonious space. It should not be overloaded with decorative elements. The decor should be presented only in light "strokes".
Light
There is enough natural light in the bedroom,therefore, the lighting here is central. There is a sconce hanging above the bed. In the kitchen-living room, which has no windows, the light is arranged above the table. The old engravings on the walls are separately illuminated. In all other areas, the lighting is spotlighted.
The peculiarity of this apartment – a single window – became the main problem. How well it will be solved, we will see after the project is completed.
