Studio Redesign with Large Kitchen and Bedroom

We already told you about the interior of this single-room apartment based on a designer's project, Galina Lo. Today we'll go into more detail about the layout. The professional had full freedom of action (open-plan design), so the designer carefully planned every detail. In the end, there was space for a spacious kitchen, a living room, and a mini bedroom. We're telling you the details.

The client requested as much working surface as possible, so the balcony was insulated and connected to the kitchen area. A side-by-side refrigerator (with swing doors) was installed here.

Space was zoned with a partition

Since the apartment has only one room, it was important for the designer to solve the zoning issue. The designer didn't want to build solid walls, so a light glass partition was chosen — it doesn’t overload the space at all. The partition visually separates the kitchen zone from the living room.

Bedroom placed in a niche

According to the developer's plan, a storage room was supposed to be located at the entrance to the apartment, but it was sacrificed for a bedroom instead. To prevent the space from becoming too cramped, another glass sliding partition was installed on the side of the living room. It visually separates the bedroom from the common space while still letting air and light in from the window.

Storage systems provided

Most items are stored in the living room — a large storage system was installed along the wall. The coat closet was moved into the entrance hall.
