How to Achieve a Stylish Renovation Without Demolition: 5 Ideas

Designer Irina Vinnevskaya decorated a two-bedroom apartment with an area of 82 square meters without demolition. She combined modern finishing with classical moldings and cornices, while custom furniture was balanced by colorful items and decor. The result is stylish and timeless. We've gathered the most impressive ideas from this designer in this post.

Beautiful Floor Tiles

The designer used different tiles in the hallway, bathrooms, balcony and kitchen—these areas immediately became focal points since beautiful tiles always draw attention and make the interior more interesting. In the kitchen, a whole carpet was laid out in the dining area—take note.

Kitchen with a Secret

The kitchen looks extremely presentable and elegant. No one would guess that behind the facades a gas boiler and its utilities are hidden. The upper cabinets were made to the ceiling, which allowed using this space for storage. To preserve working surfaces, a microwave was placed in the upper cabinet.

Lightweight Cabinet Facades

The apartment has many storage spaces, but they create a warehouse-like feeling. Why? Because the designer chose elegant facades with glass that add airiness to the interior.

Interesting Textiles

The walls are quite neutral and simple in finish. However, the textiles delight with a variety of tones and textures. This creates dynamics, adds playfulness, and visually makes the renovation more expensive.

Mix of Ready-Made and Custom Pieces

Cabinet systems and dressers don't have to be made with identical facades or in the same color. On the contrary, they can be combined with ready-made furniture to lighten the atmosphere and set accents, as Irina Vinnevskaya did in her clients' bedroom.
