The architectural bureau Kerimov Architects designed the interior of the 200 sq. m  apartment in the residential complex “Vorobiev House” (Moscow). The clients are  a young couple. The natural materials and light colors, used in the project, visually enlarge and  expand the initially large space.  

The spacious multi-functional area includes a living room, dining area, and  kitchen. The interior is organized by Minotti sofas, oriented to two sides: the linear  sofa faces the dining area, and the L-shaped one frames the lounge area in front of  the TV and fireplace. De Padova tables with slim round tops and linear bases look  graphically on the background of a light gray sofa and Jan Kath rug. The  Rimadesio TV cabinet and the Minotti sofa are co-scaled and height-equal, thanks  to this design approach, the living room looks visually light and compositionally  complete. The main accent in the living room is the wall made of an Italian natural  marble panel and perforated veneer screen which specially created for this project  by Kerimov Architects. The thin Paola Castelli floor lamp practically merges  with the vertical drapery of curtains, bringing atmospheric light to the lounge area  at night. 

The dining area is formed by a Bonaldo table with an original base and De Padova chairs with a low backrest tapered to the armrests – these items have common  features like laconic stable forms, thin lines, and common proportions. An airy and  undulating Ochre chandelier literally hovers above the table adding dynamism to  the static dining group.

The highlight of the interior is the multifunctional Boffi kitchen. Convenient  shelves, sections for storing kitchen utensils and accessories, and a compartment  for built-in appliances are hidden behind the monolithic metal facade. The splash  back is made of Black Cosmic marble. For ease of use, in the kitchen, there is a  built-in backlight. When the kitchen is not in use, the facades are tightly closed – this allows not violating the integrity of the interior and minimizing visual noise. 

The kitchen island also serves as a bar or a breakfast area. It surrounded by  Maxalto bar stools. 

For an airy, light, and graphic walk-in-closet the architects chose a spacious Porro  wardrobe with mirrored doors, a weightless Ochre chandelier, a Galotti Radice  vanity table with fine geometry and, in contrast, a voluminous fluffy Arflex armchair, and a carpet by Michaela Schleypen. 

The master bedroom is designed in light colors. A characteristic feature of the  interior is a relief alcantara panel created by Kerimov Architects with built-in top  lighting, which plays beautifully on three-dimensional geometric planes while  enlighted.

The Minotti bed with a comfortable fabric upholstered headboard is perfectly  complemented by the Maxalto bench and the Porro bedside tables. 

The lounge area in the bedroom is formed by two-tone Minotti armchairs with  enveloping U-shaped backs and a geometric Baxter table on a round carpet by  Michaela Schleypen. Above this group, there is the Bocci branched lamp with  flower-like shades. 

The master bathroom is adjacent to the master bedroom: the spaces are  interruptedly connected by Rimadesio sliding glass doors. Like the bedroom, the  bathroom is designed in light colors multiplying the natural light that enters the  interior. The necessary privacy is provided by blackout curtains and a metal decorative screen, designed by the architects, that frames the bathtub by Antonio  Lupi. 

In the design of the master bathroom Salvatori natural stone and Antonio Lupo sinks made of natural marble are used.  

The guest bedroom is designed in dark tones, in contrast to the master bedroom.  The key feature of the interior is the wall panel behind the bed, created by the  architects, with built-in perimeter lighting, which nicely reflects on the texture. On  the sides of the panel, there are full-height mirrors with adding some visual effect. 

The Saba bed is distinguished by a two-part high headboard and thin legs, visually  lightening the structure. Baxter bedside tables, as if made of rings, naturally  continue in expressive sphere its shape in the lamps with a two-tone shade. 

The guest bathroom is made in dark tones, creating a spectacular background for  the glass shower cubicle, graphic pendant lights, and fittings in a warm golden hue.  The brand of the bathroom furniture is Cielo.

The home office for two is designed in neutral light colors, accentuated by a carved  Louis Vuitton leather partition. It is not only a decorative element but also  functional – it adds privacy, allowing focusing on solving important tasks. 

Another feature of the interior is a textured wall, pleasant to the touch – tactile  sensations allow switching attention during moments of relaxation. Galotti Radice furniture and Occhio table lamps were chosen for the home office.
