At the same time, on an area of 101 m2, it was possible to place ten full-fledged rooms: the front area of the living room-kitchen-dining room, a bedroom, a guest bedroom, an office, two bathrooms, a wardrobe, an entrance hall and a hall.” A fragment of the bedroom.

With this technique, the designer managed to beat the space in an interesting way, to give the rooms additional volume and noble shine. The living room is located in a single space with the kitchen-dining room, but functionally separated from it by an arch-portal with built-in showcases.

The graphite mirror used in the lining of the kitchen apron creates an interesting perspective effect. “I couldn’t find a decent dining table of the right size, and since the customers wanted the key pieces of furniture to be certainly Western—made, I designed the table myself and put it into production at the American furniture factory Jonathan Charles,” continues Victoria Vlasova.

The rooms are quite bright, but at the same time they are designed in a single key, which you continuously feel when you move from one room to another. All this creates a harmonious mood of the interior.” View from the bedroom to the study. Photo SERGEY KRASYUK The kitchen and living room are separated by a portal with showcases.
