The genesis of this project unfolded for a discerning middle-aged man. With a penchant for cool tones, a palette dominated by such hues was chosen, accented by a vibrant carrot orange. The interior, a harmonious blend of eclectic styles, dances gracefully between minimalism and neoclassicism. Moldings, cornices, and ceiling medallions were selected for their understated elegance, devoid of superfluous ornamentation to maintain visual clarity, while ambient lighting implemented from within the cornices. Nestled within a stately Stalin-era edifice, the apartment boasts an unconventional layout, featuring two bay windows — one elegantly transformed into a dedicated workspace. Here, the design ethos celebrates the balance of simplicity and sophistication, crafting an environment that resonates with tranquility and purpose.
