Using a light color scheme, Irina Chufistova created a laconic space with elements of Scandinavian design for a family with a child and a cat

Fragments of the hallway. Different areas are emphasized by the flooring: in the hallway and kitchen — tiles, Marca Corona Chalk; in other rooms — engineering board, Tarwood.

Object: one-bedroom apartment, 75.6 m2

Style: modern, with elements of Scandinavian design

The main idea of the project: a bright, but not boring interior

Color scheme: white, gray, shades of wood

Author of the project: Irina Chufistova, +7 (966) 073 4243, @ chufistova_irina;

Style: Evgenia Melnikova, @jenny_melnikova

Floristry: Tatiana Borunova, @tatiana_borunova

The customers, a young couple with a three-year-old son, set one mandatory condition: the walls must be white! Looking ahead, I will say that thanks to the correct use of shades and textures, it was possible to avoid an inappropriate feeling of sterility, as in a hospital ward. Therefore, having lived in the apartment for more than a year, the customer still has not regretted her choice — even if it is not the most practical option, but the visual effect pays for everything.

Kitchen furniture is made to order according to the designer’s sketches.

Most of the items and textiles were already available to the customer.  We practically didn’t have to bring the decor with us for shooting

For the decoration of the apartment, items of three brands were selected: H&M Home, IKEA and Zara Home.

In general, we immediately found a common language with the hostess — she is a creative person, teaches drawing to children and, of course, draws well herself. And the head of the family works mainly remotely, so another requirement was a well-equipped place for online conferences.

I emphasized the simplicity of forms and conciseness, the color palette is based on white, gray, and wood. Black color occurs in the form of lines and individual accents, which makes the space more expressive. Textiles were chosen in natural calm shades: the hostess quickly gets bored with colors, and bed linen, curtains and decorative pillows are easy to change depending on the mood and time of year.

Anton’s cat can be called the fourth owner of the house: during the shooting, he moved after the photographer, watching the work

Despite the fact that the ceilings in this apartment are not very high, we managed to visually raise them by using high cabinets and mirrors in the project. The arch in the entrance area also helps to make the space more interesting; here and in the kitchen there is the same graphic tile in a small cage (I love this technique, it helps to connect the space and build a chain of associations).

The kitchen turned out to be functional and ergonomic, it is a place where the whole family gathers. And in the bedroom, a working area was planned specially for the owner, separated from the actual sleeping partition. As a result, it turned out to be a bright, harmonious space, and customers really loved it. And their positive emotions, in turn, please me!
