A standard kopeck piece with a separate bathroom has been turned into an open-plan studio. Since all the walls were non-load bearing, it was not difficult to reconcile the changes. They played on contrasts in decoration and interior filling - they combined black and white, classic and modern. The so-called "antibody" became the semantic center of the interior. It is a series of storage systems that have framed the bathroom. They look like a single monolithic structure.

The walls throughout the apartment were painted white and the flooring was parquet. Plaster cornices and moldings refer to neoclassicism. The windows were replaced with wooden ones made of pine, they were covered with white enamel.

The living room area was outlined with the help of furniture arrangement and additionally zoned with a carpet. Upholstered armchairs and a pouf were made to order from automotive leather.

Kitchen

All equipment and storage systems were built into the black box cases. The cooking area was organized on a four-meter island - a bar made of acrylic stone - the hob and sink were moved there. The dining area was illuminated with chrome-plated AXO Light suspensions.

The decor was minimalist. The black and white theme was supported only by the posters of the British illustrator Ruben Ireland.

Bedroom

The bedroom was zoned by the very configuration of the room. During the redevelopment, the window-sill block was dismantled in order to expand the exit to the balcony, and the heating radiators were replaced with a floor convector.

The side of the box facing the bedroom was taken under the built-in storage systems - a row of shallow cabinets.

Hallway

In the hallway there was a minimum of furniture. A wardrobe for outerwear was built into a niche at the entrance. This solution helped to correct the proportions of the room.

Bathroom

The bathroom was conditionally divided into “wet” and “dry” zones. In the decoration of the first, they used marble-like porcelain stoneware, and the floor in the shower room was laid with moisture-resistant wooden slats. A small niche was provided for storing cosmetic accessories.

The "dry" area was decorated with patterned parquet. Contrast was made with black elements - vanity units, heated towel rails and wooden slats on the ceiling.
