Architectural concept and artistic devices:
This typical apartment can be found not only in high-rise apartment houses of Kharkov but Kiev as well. It was designed for a a young family of 3. Although, its space is not large, an efficient layout allowed designing of 3 inhabited rooms and utility rooms for household needs.
First of all, we discussed with the customer his suggestions and requirements, and a desirable layout. It is notable that the head of the family was skeptical about attracting a designer to create the interior design of the apartment. Nevertheless, when following the interior visualization tracing, we started to implement the design project, the repair and finishing works began, and the picture started to become reality, he changed his mind radically with respect to designer work and trusted me as a specialist completely.
The main issues of architectural replanning are combining the living room and kitchen, eliminating unnecessary small corridors (I converted all the corridors into utility rooms or increased the area of ??living rooms due to this expansion), I warmed the balcony in the nursery, removed the balcony unit and arranged a workplace for the child there.
Finally, the apartment interior design was created as harmonious, not overburdened with excessive decorative elements. My opinion is that this interior combines efficient balance of functionality and aesthetics.
