Tell us about working with space

First of all, we divided the kitchen from the living room. It was easy with the bar. One wall of the living room, we glued wallpaper, which depicts the Golden Bridge at night, using a large picture, we demastified a small room and visually moved the walls. Near the wall set a small sofa. As a result, the cooking zone was joined by a rest area.

With the help of suitable furniture, we managed to create a unity of the chosen rooms in style, at the same time they each fulfill their purpose, and have different situations. Furniture was made by individual order with the help of our sketches. In the recreation area its height is lowered, equipped with several upper shelves, there is still room where you can place the TV.
