Sister's apartment is an airy apartment for a young girl.
The two floors are separated thematically and functionally: the first one is active (living room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room), and the second one is private (bedroom, study, dressing room, and bathroom).
First floor
The living room is visually separated from the kitchen by the warm color of the wooden flooring. Wood runs up the stairs to the bedroom. The softness of the colors is diluted with a velvet chair by &Tradition and geometric art.
The partition between the kitchen and the living room divides the canvas of the ceiling into two parts, maintaining the zoning on the floor. Next is the kitchen with porcelain stoneware walls and floor. The kitchen cabinets with glass facades reflect the space and expand its volume. The wooden dining area complements the space with soft accents.
The laundry room is just below the stairs behind a glass shaft that reaches the ceiling of the second floor. This decision was made to get more of the daylight into the room and make the stairs more airy and light.
The entrance to the bathroom is through a mirror wall. Not only does this avoid unnecessary visual limitations, but it also works functionally: it is a place to fix a hairstyle and decide if shoes look good with a dress.
The porcelain stoneware doesn’t stop in the kitchen and continues its journey to the bathroom — it is on the sink, floor, walls and in the mirror reflection.
Second floor
In the bedroom, the colors get thicker. There are no sharp corners here, just comfort. Metal bedside-tables are on guard of the bed. Flos lamps are on guard of light. A double headboard gives you a double feeling of comfort. The black and olive minimalist table is set to become a major beauty spot — it will be on guard of beauty.
The mirror in the lobby reflects another art geometry. And it, in turn, complements the color symmetry of the wine-colored pouf.
The study has a white console table for important things. The shelves area hides a bare concrete wall that contrasts with the creamy tint of other walls. Pink sofa — for the breaks to rest.
