Stylish Entrance Hall with Closet in Stalin-era Apartment, 6.4 sqm

Designer Anastasia Potapova from the UnBuro studio decorated a Stalin-era apartment with a total area of 56 sq. m for a young family. A typical two-room apartment with illegal reconfiguration was transformed into a three-bedroom flat in the style of modern classic. Today we will tell you more about this stylish entrance hall.

The space was transformed through reconfiguration: part of the wall between the hallway and living room was removed, leaving the load-bearing beam on which a strip partition was mounted. Zoning was done using different floor coverings. The tiles were made uniform in the entrance hall, hallway, and kitchen.

To the right of the entrance, a large mirror was placed that visually expands the space. Opposite the front door, a stylish functional footstool was placed.

Also, a closet of 2.1 sqm was arranged in the entrance hall, where not only clothes and items were placed but also a small laundry area. The door was installed with a folding mechanism for convenience and space saving. It was painted in the color of the walls.
