10 Best Design Solutions from June Projects

In our selection are the most interesting and practical ideas from projects published in June.

Make a Passage Wardrobe

In this apartment, the bedroom was combined with the wardrobe and bathroom. A passage wardrobe is one of the interior's features. The wardrobes are arranged in such a way that the space is easily divided into a female and male side — the arrangement is almost symmetrical. The door to the room was made semi-transparent — this way the wardrobe doesn't seem fully isolated.

Transform a Long Corridor into an Art Gallery

A long corridor leading to the private zone with bedrooms and bathrooms might spoil the impression of the space, so it was transformed into a gallery — by hanging pictures on the walls and carefully planning special lighting.

Non-Standard Spatial Zoning

To make a unified studio space more cozy and private, the designer came up with an unusual zoning partition made of brass mesh. It doesn't take up much space, separates the bedroom area from the living room and does a great job as a decor element.

Transform a Small Studio into a Two-Bedroom Apartment

The clients purchased a one-room apartment in a new building and asked the designers to make it convenient for living. This means — allocating about forty square meters for a kitchen-living room, bedroom and an isolated workspace.

The clients' wishes were fulfilled one hundred percent. Next to the bedroom, behind a transparent partition, designers managed to create not just a workspace but a real men's office with a leather sofa, a large desk and shelves for books and papers. The partition is equipped with a special curtain that blocks out light.

Use Lighting as an Art Object

The role of a special architectural element in this project was played by lighting. LED backlighting was embedded into the walls and ceiling, as well as built into carpentry structures. Thanks to this, the perception of space completely changes — rooms seem more spacious and deeper.

Arrange a Narrow Kitchen

The kitchen in this apartment is very narrow, so it was necessary to order cabinets of non-standard depth — 45 and 40 cm, access to the dishwasher was arranged from the side. Instead of a dining table — a bar counter-window.

Turn Negatives into Positives

A spacious two-bedroom apartment in a new residential complex had one major drawback: there were too many load-bearing walls. Designers came up with how to turn the disadvantages into advantages, turning the new building into a trendy loft.

Find Space for Decor and Accessories on the Kitchen

Designers preferred open shelves and railings to closed cabinets — the client happily supported this idea. This approach allowed for diversifying the kitchen with decor and accessories. Attention is also immediately drawn to the chrome minimalist extractor hood — both functional and beautiful.

Increase the Apartment Area

You can turn a balcony or loggia into a storage space, but it's better to make it an extension of the room. Designer Elena Markina did exactly that in a three-bedroom apartment in a new residential complex: now the client has an additional relaxation zone, a butler’s area and a play zone for her daughter.
