Planning Solution
The space was a so-called “white box,” and the goal was to fit it out without altering the walls or flooring or changing the layout.
Color and Style Options
The core design concept was based on color. A color scheme was selected, and the furniture layout was planned efficiently. Additional built-in furniture was designed to fit within the room’s standard dimensions. Most of the furniture was purchased from stores, taking into account the apartment’s specific dimensions and layout.
The color scheme included pastel shades: grassy greens, dusty blues, cappuccino tones, gray-beige, and truffle hues. The same shades were chosen for accents, but in more saturated tones.
Kitchen
The kitchen features elegant colors: olive, truffle, and cappuccino. The refrigerator units are located on the left, and the open shelving is complemented by a closed glass display cabinet to avoid visually dividing the space.
All kitchen cabinets have closed fronts. The upper cabinets, in a contrasting color, create a focal point, drawing attention to the beautiful backsplash featuring a pattern of boats and water. The floor-to-ceiling cabinets, finished to resemble wood, emphasize the natural feel of the interior.
The open kitchen includes base cabinets and a unit housing appliances such as the stove and microwave, all in a cappuccino color. The upper cabinets have an olive hue, complemented by soft seating and textiles in the same color. Roman shades echo the color scheme, creating a unified style and a cozy atmosphere in the interior.
Living Room
For the living room, a palette of truffle and gray-beige tones of varying intensity was chosen. Shades of blue were also incorporated into the textiles, the lampshade, and the accent wall in the TV area. Trendy LED lighting was used.
The apartment owners are passionate about collecting various types of art, especially watercolors. The area with the chest of drawers, where watercolor paintings can be displayed, is beautifully zoned.
The TV area is designed with a mix of open and closed storage. A wall-mounted cabinet adds a sense of spaciousness. In the corner of the room are potted plants and an armchair, and the corner sofa unfolds to accommodate guests.
Hallway
The entryway has plenty of open walls where you can hang watercolor paintings. This adds warmth and character to the space, while also showcasing your love of art.
Bedroom
The bedroom needed to be multifunctional, designed from the outset for two children and their parents. The room is quite large and elongated, allowing it to be used in a way that comfortably accommodates all of the client’s wishes.
A bunk bed designed from our own sketches was used. The bottom bunk is intended for a very young child, and the top one for an older child. Pull-out drawers were added for storage. The room also features a wardrobe for children’s clothes and a bookshelf. A children’s teepee is also located here, which was a must-have for the family.
The parents’ bed is equipped with bedside tables and additional lighting. Opposite is a TV area, as well as a zone with a vanity table and mirror. Everything is done in coordinating shades, including additional panels that can be ordered later. This is a case where you can move into the apartment right away and gradually add new furniture, with the design plan on hand.
Bathroom
The bathroom was originally tiled with beautiful, large-format white tiles. The grout was refreshed with an olive-colored finish. White furniture would have blended in too much here, so we chose colored furniture for the bathroom. We also added warmth with a wood-textured bath screen featuring folding doors.
Guest Bathroom
The guest bathroom features modular storage systems. Today, a laundry area is no longer a luxury but a practical necessity. Even in small apartments, there is room for such a space.
The guest bathroom comfortably accommodates a small sink, a toilet, and a spacious modular laundry area.
