Created for a young family with a small child, this compact apartment features all the basic elements required to live fully and more...
Russian design firm, "Design Cafe", set about the project to utilize every inch possible for living space without sacrificing a hip, young aesthetic. It features a large fully equipped modern kitchen, dining and living area in one open space.
The kitchen has open shelving instead of heavy cabinetry and the lower cabinet apron is made of 3D plaster panels and protective glass. The sofa coverts into a double bed for guests and sits in front of graphic wallpaper intended to visually expand the space. An enclosed entrance keeps the rooms separate for added privacy. The rest of the apartment houses a master bedroom with office area, a shared bathroom and a child’s room which is created to accommodate a second child in the future.
In the kitchen dining area the ceilings are 3 ft higher than the rest of apartment to enlarge it and the entrance boasts a mirrored wall on the right to enlarge the space and create a stunning focal point. The colors in the child’s bedroom were kept neutral so they could be adaptable to a boy or girl and in order to save some more space, the designers decided to make one big bathroom with large shower and two sinks on one vanity. Also there's a full-size office area which is situated opposite from the bed in the master bedroom. The children’s room features a small nursery area, bed for older child and play area anda desk, locker and bookshelf will give an older child plenty of room to do homework, create art and many other activities.
This apartment is really an ideal place for a young urban family with only one child. Every inch of space is used in the best way possible so this apartment can give a family everything they need to live with luxury and yet in a such a small city space.Enjoy!
