The customer is a successful young man. He lives alone and wanted the apartment to be as functional as possible, with a large sofa and TV, as well as a round table at which he could gather friends to play poker. "Plus to these wishes, which were all realized, during the design process we managed to increase the area of the apartment by 20 m2," says designer Ksenia Mezentseva

"The apartment is located on the top floor of one of the towers of a modern residential complex," says designer Ksenia Mezentseva. — Due to this location and unique ceilings for Moscow with a height of 4.2 meters, we managed to increase the living area by building a mezzanine floor, where a recreation room with a library and a guest sleeping place is located."

"The ceiling height of 4.2 meters is not enough to create two full-fledged floors, but too much for one, so when designing the mezzanine, the game was played by centimeters. It was very important to us that the mezzanine itself and the floor with a kitchen and a bathroom located under it were comfortable to use. In order to save height, we chose the most compact built-in lamps, and all communications were laid between the floor beams. And we did it!"
The kitchen and the island are made by Atlas-Lux according to the designer's sketches. Vintage bar stools, Watford.

"The interior was obviously supposed to be calm in color. And to make it lively and not boring, we used a variety of geometries in the finishing. This is how stone "blots" appeared on the kitchen floor, flowing into the carpet in the living room, a geometric pattern of railings, a "block" library and rack-and-pinion wall panels, which further emphasized the height of the ceilings."
