VAVILOVA

Area: 112 m²

Location:  Moscow

Status: In progress

The project of an apartment in the south of Moscow.
The customers, a young couple with a child, came up with fairly clear requirements: it was necessary to form an autonomous master unit; maintain a sense of air, including in the hallway area; while moving around the apartment, avoid “dead ends” and place a biofireplace in the living room area.
 


We got a space with a riser in the center of the apartment. In the process of discussing various planning solutions, we settled on the option with a “cube”, which includes a riser and is a bathroom. Thanks to this volume in space, versatility and the possibility of different scenarios of movement appear. 


In the kitchen-dining area, there are columns with built-in appliances and an island (work surface), which adjoins a table for four. Since customers have guests, we have provided for the possibility of increasing the length of the table so that 6 people can comfortably sit behind it. It was decided to make the table top of the work surface not of a standard width, but of a recessed one (750 mm), which in the future will allow customers to cook on both sides of the island. The “floating” section of the sink provides a convenient approach to it from three sides. We also provided pull-out sections in 2 directions so that the drawers are comfortable, and not heavy and too deep.
In the living area there is a modular sofa and a biofireplace.


For the hallway, a storage system was designed, "flowing" into the laundry room. The verticals of the handles from floor to ceiling give the space a certain rhythm, which is “knocked down” by a panel with slats of different widths (this technique is also used in the TV area and in the slats of the guest bathroom). The laundry room was closed with a sliding door, in case of full retraction of which we see a wall painted in one of the accent colors of this project - ocher.

The guest bathroom is located in a "cube", which is covered with decorative plaster in a complex blue-gray hue. Color penetrates from the outer walls of the cube inward, thereby emphasizing the integrity of the volume. In one of the walls, we have provided spectacular “slits” dressed in a mirror, which work both on the living room area and on the bathroom. The entrance to the bathroom is made from the hallway to hide it from the kitchen-living room as much as possible.


The private half combined the bedroom, dressing room and bathroom linearly. In the bathroom, it was decided to use glass as wall fragments to preserve natural light. 


The decoration used a non-variegated palette and natural materials - concrete, oak veneer, suede, metal; shades of bluish and ocher.
