High up above Kiev’s right bank Dnipro River, this is 1,141-square foot, one bedroom apartment is everything except plain. Designed by Ukrainian Studio metric bureau For creative couple and their cat Apartment with lizard is a fearless exploration of bold design choices. “Our clients were open to risks,” says Switlana Moscalenko, designer and founder of the metric bureau. “They were most worried about emotional experience – dramatic images, contrasting colors and original ideas.” One partner, with a fashionable background, replaced something with the care of the Cosmic Carnival – dramatic, unconventional and dripping with the personality. The second sought a peaceful withdrawal for peaceful reflection. The result is a dream to solve which balances color and calm, where theatrical moments meet functional lightness.
From the moment you get inside, the apartment sets the tone. Monochrome red input – walls, ceiling, and even light – feels like it enters the room in the doll. The sliding glass separates this blow from the rest of the house, where the living space is anchored in deep green. In its center, a mass circular opening sliced in fur fur becomes a focus and meditative escape. Instead of the daily chair, the portal invites you to tilt, watch out and switch on with the 26. balcony, paved in the fishing, in the form of water.
Ukrainian parts bring warmth and identity living room: blue sofa in shape in the form of a svoy studio, sculptural voo armchair and mushrooms on similar cafes. Veneer Alpi, designed by Postmodern Master Ettore SottSassIt supports built-in metal shelves, adding a layer of art in a currently collection of books and facilities.
Indented in the walls of entries are metal shelves that keep the steam shoes on neat mode. It is above, hidden plates cover up easy access to the technical systems of the apartment.
The kitchen is equally characteristic, with a cabin on the same green color as well as living space and a mirror concrete that illuminates the room architecture. The red alpes veneer emphasizes the upper cabinets, while the whimsical portrait of lizard in formal clothes – the work of Ukrainian artist Valeri Kuznetsov – presides the world. Around the circular dining table, unassigned red and white chairs keep playful mood, illuminated by the above-mentioned pendant lamp from Denmark Oo.
The bedroom is designed around a preimensioned created bed (with over 75 square meters of sleeping space!), Channel fantasy through the Italian wallpaper and children and a glowing mirror inspired by eclipse. Distorted vanity and lamps are trimmed on theatricality, while chain curtains reveal an elegant, completely black wardrobe. Even the bathroom is dramatically with contrasting cobalt walls with a shock red sink and shelves – plus discreet, cabinet entrance customized in the garbage box.
Moskalenko is called one of the most choked study projects until today, a space where customers’ willingness risk risking to the interior that is emotionally accused as it believed. It is an apartment where every detail – from the portal lined with the portal on the lizard – tells the story, blurring the line between everyday life and stage for imagination.
The balcony is lined with floor plates like water in selets and black mosaic tiles and deviates benches, and all result in the feeling of the pool.
