apartments in London

Check out this apartment makeover in London done by Crawford Partnership. Beautiful combination of a modern architecture theme built into an old apartment complex. Interior design is done in a modest, conservative fashion as all the details of it as well as furniture selection, kitchen cabinets, stairway design, etc. is aimed at the most efficient use of space. Rooms are very spacious and well illuminated.

This apartment has been remodeled by Design Studio “Crawford Partnership”. These guys didn’t do just the interior design of it; they simply rebuilt the whole thing. It almost seems like they took the old apartment and “cut it out of the building”, and then implanted and built a completely new development. This real estate makeover is quiet unique, stylish, and chic. Check it out for yourself below:

Suburban Houses: Berkshire Residence project

admin — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 00:50:34 +0000

Berkshire Residence was developed by Morrison Seifert Murphy Architects, studio of architecture and design. Harmony and coziness are reached by a combination of spectacular illumination and use of warm, dark gray-green and coffee colors. Large sliding glass doors and windows gave the house an ability to blend in with the surrounding nature, and made the indoor and outdoor spaces become one. The interior and the exterior of the residence are a product of minimalism and simplicity of forms. This house is perfect for a family that values comfort and a good life-style.

Designs of the future: design of the interior in hi tech style

admin — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 19:46:22 +0000

LAVA Studio (Laboratory for Visionary Architecture) has developed an interior of a hotel room that looks more like an inside of a spaceship rather than a room. Designers created this space with a basic idea of the interaction between high technologies and human body. A combination of free cosmic forms with soft and rigid materials provide interrelation between functional spaces. Trying to create a quiet but super-modern design, the designers of LAVA have incorporated all life necessities into a system of a continuous wall.

Interior design of a one-bedroom apartment in the center of Paris

admin — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 17:44:23 +0000

Let’s transfer to romantic Paris to see an extraordinary example of modern elegancy and functionality embodied in a small space. This is a very small one-bedroom apartment with an area of 17 squared meters which is located right in the center of Paris. The apartment turned out to be very cozy and in some sense comic, just by looking at the carpet with an image of a classic game right by the entrance door makes you want to giggle.

Максимизируя пространство маленькой квартиры кухня была совмещена с ванной. Сильный графический элемент – выпуклая белая плитка создает контраст современной черной кухне и белой ванной, чтобы создать теплую, приятную атмосферу этому интерьеру. Освещение, теплая мебель и бархатные занавески и золотые обои – постоянно меняют ощущения, если вы смотрите вокруг из центра.

Obviously this furniture is meant to be used in a children’s room, but every adult, who considers himself childish at times, can certainly add these bright colors even to his so called “grown-up” interior as well.

Retro futurism is incorporated in the design of the rooms. At some points it seems that you entered a spaceship and is about to travel to far away planets…Designers at GRAFT studio did their job well, the atmosphere is excellent.
