How to Fix Tight Layout and Add Colors and Mood

Green shades are gradually becoming as classic as beige, white, and gray. In this interior, designers from Vered Bonfiglioli Studio focused on a cool sage-green tone. According to the RAL color standard, this shade can be classified as 7009, Feldgrau.

It is deep and ambiguous: depending on the lighting, its perception can change from blue to gray. It also pairs excellently with trendy pale pink tones. Designers chose to play on the contrast between cold and warm, brutal and gentle.

The apartment is 73 square meters in the Israeli city of Givatayim, so there was enough space for a spacious living room that smoothly transitions into the kitchen. The central spot here is taken by a sofa upholstered in soft pink velvet. The color palette was complemented with a white Kartell chair and a gray velvet ottoman.

Functional zones were not forgotten either. The free wall was used for a desk, and the TV was placed on a column that remained between the living room and kitchen after the reconfiguration.

At the entrance, instead of a traditional ceiling-mounted coat rack, a black metal stand was hung. A glass cabinet was placed nearby, where the apartment owners store their magazine collection.

In the hallway, storage units were arranged: a bookcase and a utility cabinet housing the washing machine and dryer.

To soften the cold tones and strict forms, designers added more living plants, textiles, and even macramé. The kitchen featured a panoramic window – here a cozy relaxation area with many plants and a small bed was created.

For the bedroom, a contrasting warm terracotta tone was chosen, which was also used in the bathroom decoration.

The combination of the cool sage-green tone and soft terracotta worked well for both. Designers successfully created a balance between opposites in the interior and stayed true to the client's wishes. The result is not a polished catalog-style interior but a stylish apartment where one can live comfortably and in comfort.
