The space we selected forstory, has a unique layout and special exclusivity. It is located on 56 sq. m. in the capital's residential complex "House on Beregovoy". The unusualness of the housing is based on the fact that it has only two window openings, while the passage to them was difficult when constructing internal partitions in the room. The design and implementation of the design concept were carried out by talented specialists Katya Mamaeva and Ekaterina Svanidze, their creative union carries out joint management of the architectural workshop "DveKati".How did they manage to cope with it?unusual layout of the house, divide it so as to fill the space with the maximum amount of sunlight? And besides this, understand and achieve full implementation of the requirements of the client, who is a true admirer of the Art Nouveau style. In addition, the financial side of the project was narrowed by the framework. And everyone knows that this direction does not accept savings, it requires wealth and chic. Graduates of the Modern School of Design MGUKI, they are also the owners of an art workshop with an interesting name "DveKati". For more than five years, they have worked in the field of development and design of individual and public interiors. "We help to organize a personal corner, comfortable for living and working, based on the individual requirements of the customer, directing and advising. The result of such a creative union was the realized idea of a unique design - modern and practical."
Customer and desires
The owner of the house is a young and energetic person,presentation coordinator at the largest marketing corporation. She set the following goal for the masters - with a personal wardrobe, as well as the ability to separate the sleeping space. As a result of the apartment's non-standard nature, the specialists came up with six different furnishing layouts, from which a rational design for the girl was subsequently selected.
Layout
The dwelling initially looked emptyA 56-meter area with a ventilation system in the center and a volumetric supporting wall between the window blocks. The spacious area for a one-room apartment had a noticeable minus - only two windows on one wall. And if a wall were built between them, most of the room would be left without sunlight!
Zoning
Bedroom and living room, whichneeds can be transformed into a guest hall, separated by fences using opaque glass panels, through which the sun's light passes wonderfully. At the same time, the sleeping bed is not isolated entirely, since there is an individual passage to the main room, and, consequently, a more comfortable route to the bathroom. As a result, the main wish of the customer is provided - . The wardrobe is located in a separate rounded room, this was done because the woman wanted to get rid of the corners. The supporting wall between the window blocks, which could not be removed or demolished, was increased - as a result, a voluminous kitchen cabinet was obtained. It housed a bar, cutlery and several ducks. It also separates the kitchen area and the hall. Low ceilings had to be lowered a little more for laying communication wires of the fire safety system, since this was the main requirement of the housing company of the construction. In the area of a spacious bathroom, the designers could place not only a bath, but also a shower stall, but the girl wanted only the second option.
Stylistics of design
The client expressed her opinion on the decoration of the interiorspecial requests – ultra-modern decor with accessories in the Art Deco style. The charming and dreamy lilac tone was chosen as the basis for the color palette. In the case of a limited financial budget, the specialists understood that the Art Nouveau style in this interior could only exist as attractive accessories and decorative elements.
Building materials and solutions
Thus, an inexpensive one was selectedphoto panel "Zebra" at the head of the bed and Rasch wallpaper, found by the authors in the Leroy Merlin hypermarket chain. The ventilation column towering in the atrium "bursts" into the ceiling, it was shaded by the finishing of natural marble, purchased on a special offer. The apron in the kitchen is made in the same manner. Another natural building material for exquisite style is the voluminous floorboard in the living room and bedroom area of a beautiful dark chocolate shade. In the bathroom, the stylistic note of style seeps in the black glossy hanging lamps and charming mosaic, as well as in the luxurious rounded frame of mirror elements and in the twisting outlines of lilac tiles.
Furnishings
The Art Nouveau style is also supported by the chest of drawerstypical rectilinear ornament, produced by domestic manufacturers. The snow-white bedside tables on curved supports from Ikea, velour curtains instead of a door in the dressing room, a huge mirror surface in a traditional gilded frame from the manufacturer "Moscow Mirror Factory" fit perfectly into the interior. And, naturally, a painting with a lady's appearance, imitating those times.
Facing
The kitchen set from IKEA emphasizesSnow-white built-in appliances from Zanussi. The kitchen countertop, bar counter and window sills are made using artificial stone Starone. The bar stools were purchased by the client on promotion in Kartell, author Philippe Starc. The floor surface is presented by the Parketoff board.

Tips for portal readers
When developing a design in a certaindirection, think about how much the parameters of your apartment will correspond to it. Namely, how rational is it to implement a hall in the Rococo style in a panel multi-story building? If you still want to, complement the ultra-modern design that suits your layout and finances with hotel accessories of the preferred style, both in the cladding and in decorative products. Try to see the noticeable shortcomings of the project from a different side. The ventilation box located in the center can be a wonderful decor due to its exceptional design and lighting. Pay attention to dark shades. A wall painted in black contrasts wonderfully and highlights rich furniture or art painting against its background, and will also fill the space with sophistication and clarity.
