What Does the Perfect Apartment for a Large Family Look Like?

We've curated a selection of interesting projects where functionality and technology are given special attention. To make an apartment comfortable for families with young children, designers focused on creating a convenient layout, numerous storage systems, and, of course, an ergonomic kitchen.

Vibrant Apartment for a Family with Two Children

Designer Alexandra Sviridova developed a practical layout with shared and private zones. The emphasis was primarily on ergonomics, with a dedicated kitchen zone and sliding doors that can be fully opened to visually connect the living room and kitchen.

Design: Aiya Design

The kitchen was equipped with Miele appliances: an induction cooktop with touch control, a coffee machine, a combi steamer, and a vacuum sealer, as freshness and food quality are important in families with small children.

Two-Story Apartment for a Family Expecting a New Member

In this project, designers connected two separate apartments located one above the other into a single two-story unit. Natural materials were chosen for finishing and the apartment was decorated in natural tones. Designers focused on maximum comfort: the first floor includes the living room-dining room-kitchen, bathroom, and office, while the second floor features private spaces.

Design: Ab-Architects

The kitchen was separated from the living room using an island. Requirements for integrated appliances were very strict: they had to blend with natural textures, be multi-functional, and ensure no unwanted odors or loud sounds.

Family Nest in St. Petersburg

Designers focused on a convenient layout, combining the TV zone, dining room, and kitchen in one space, fully equipped with the latest technology. Each family member has their own room, and the shared kitchen-living area serves as a common space for communication.

It was important for the housekeeper to have a modern and functional workspace, so an Miele range of stovetops with built-in extraction was installed on the kitchen island, which removes cooking vapors directly at the source. Household appliances were placed in a built-in unit, including a grain coffee machine.

Apartment with Private Space

For the young family with a little daughter, it was important to have a shared guest area and a space that outsiders cannot peek into. Designers connected the living room with the kitchen-dining area and equipped it with smart household appliances.

Design: Quadro Room Room

The private area was separated from the public space using glass partitions. Since the client loves cooking, an ergonomic kitchen island was designed for her, integrating Miele stovetops with built-in extraction. A multi-functional oven, coffee machine, and wine cooler were integrated into the cabinet.
