This object was created as a minimalist, ascetic interior, integrating the architecture of the building into the interior solutions of the apartment. In order to maintain the height of the ceilings, the decision was made to partially leave the concrete structures open – ceilings, columns, beams and a monolithic concrete wall.

The concrete textures were subtly bleached, thus softening the industrial character, and all other interior finishing materials were combined with them. Fine gray textured stone tiles, accent greenish colors, grayish-colored floors and furniture materials were selected. This color scheme also met the expectations of the customers – to avoid excessive decorativeness and unpopular brown shades.

Adhering to the principles of minimalism in a family home can be a challenge, because everyday objects inevitably become part of the interior. Therefore, this apartment has a lot of integrated furniture solutions that allow you to hide household appliances, the washing function and other everyday elements, while maintaining visual order and cleanliness of the space.

In order to maintain a balance between asceticism and comfort, textiles and wooden blinds are used in the interior, and special attention is paid to lighting. A large number of windows allow you to observe the change of natural light and nature, and in the evenings, various artificial lighting scenarios are provided – from quiet, intimate corners to joint family gatherings at the table, illuminated by the light emitted by massive, but visually light paper lamps.A large part of the lighting is subtly integrated into niches and furniture – this emphasizes different elements of the space and creates a functional, but visually not overloaded interior
