We merged two apartments in order to create a unified harmonic space for a big family with three kids presupposing three separate bedrooms for each of them.
The master block includes a bedroom, a walk-in closet and a bathroom. The general zone in fact occupies the area of a smaller of the two initial apartments. It gathers the living room area, the dining area, the kitchen and the utility room hidden inside a wooden block constructed entirely by the carpenter’s workshop specialists, without any solid walls or dividers. The construction works for both sides: in the utility room it creates a storage system with an additional sink whereas at the kitchen block it hides the upper shelves line and a mirror bar element.
The kitchen is a traditional mix, here – of the matt glass Valcucine elements, the custom made brushed steel screen that hides the vent ducts and the fan, and the carpenters’ block. According to our clients’ needs, we created a lot of storage blocks that we managed to “dissolve” in the volumes of the rooms.
The walk-in closet space was designed both to erase the feeling of an “additional”, “purely functional” area and to make it a living area instead of a storage one. It also helped us in increasing the bedroom volume that is separated from a closet space only by the construction holding the TV-module that works for both sides (again) by turning 180 degrees with an easy movement.
Several pieces of art found their shelter in this apartment: works by Vladimir Glyinin, Vlad Loktev and Sasha Gusov.
