The project’s main objective was rebuilding the apartment in the 19th century building into modern multifunctional housing. Interior designer Alisa Shabelnikova had to work with outdated zoning: tiny rooms, a huge hall and an irregularly shaped kitchen. She decided to create the correct axial layout. As for the color palette, the designer chose five main components: deep blue, red, white, yellow and purple.
The center of the project was the public space. Dark blue paint matched with the coating on the fronts of the kitchen units. Thanks to three windows and a well-chosen furniture it looks cozy and fashionable.
