Location: Kiev, Ukraine
Area: 300sqm
Customers wanted their apartment to be modern, elegant and equipped with every comfort, as well as for their little daughter and her nanny. To implement this project the studio ZOOI merged three apartments to create River Stone. As a result, this minimalist interior designed for a young family, occupies a half-floor of 300 square meters. The interior designers have been able to organize all the necessary premises for customers: an open space, consisting of a living room, kitchen and dining area; master and guest bedrooms; a room for the child; nanny room, laundry room and three bathrooms.
The kitchen design is realized in the shape of an island, which allows you to use it for completely different purposes: to cook with the whole family or to talk in company of close friends tasting a bottle of wine. The module, consisting of various storage systems, accommodates everything you need. This is a kitchen that will feed the bellies and the eyes of gourmets and connoisseurs of beauty.
The interior designers have been able to organize all the necessary premises for customers: an open space, consisting of a living room, kitchen and dining area; master and guest bedrooms; a room for the child; nanny room, laundry room and three bathrooms.
The open space, which includes a living room, kitchen and dining room, is conventionally divided by pylons, technical track lights from the XAL factory, colors and textures. The modular sofa echoes all the textiles that are present in this area and also the curtains of the panoramic windows. Brass fixtures give a cozy and chic atmosphere, differently shading it in the daytime and evening time.
In the living room, the mood of the open space is constantly evolving: a huge modular sofa from the Italian factory Lema, with its coffee and milk colors. It’s impossible not to pay attention to the “light stalk”, bent over the coffee table of the Gallotti & Radice factory, and the floor lamp from the Italian factory Vibia.
With its stylistic solution, the dining room secretly unites the living room and the kitchen, as it includes the interior characteristics of both zones. For example the black table Muuto from Denmark echoes with the bar stools from Lapalma (Italy), and the chairs with their color and soft lines are in harmony with the sofa in the living room. The dining area will always be lit by pleasant conversations and good news. This is facilitated by its location right at the large viewports and the iconic product of the New York Roll & Hill factory – a chandelier with “drum” roofs.
All master bedrooms usually have a large bed and plasma. But in this case, the level of comfort anticipates all expectations: a separate bathroom area, decorated with white marble tiles, is separated from the sleeping area by a transparent glass. The cabinet furniture in the bedroom has an open structure and is made of translucent materials, which create a sense of openness and spaciousness. The bed is lit by solar disks from the Italian factory Marset.
The designer bathroom bowl is installed right next to the viewport. For a complete convenience, a toilet table with a Walter Knoll chair from Germany and a towel and bathroom set Agape from Italy are located next to it. The spacious and modern bathroom decorated with white marble tiles.
The room for the child is divided into two zones: for recreation and for games, and also for the studies. The perimeter of the room and the working table are decorated in the form of lovely houses, which were designed by the designers of the studio ZOOI. In the same subject is the niche for the bed. The viewport was also used to the maximum so that the child also has a zone for rest near the window.
In the bedroom for the child, lighting is provided by a special lamp in the form of a cloud, from the Italian factory Nemo. There is so much air here that you want to “chat” in it with your feet; about that, there is a transparent outboard swing-chair.
The guest bedroom also has its own comfortable feature: a place to relax by the window, which completely occupies one side of the room. Everything here looks neat and easy. As in other rooms, the technical lighting is provided here, allowing you to adjust the temperature of the light and the designer lamps, and ensuring a soft evening light thanks to a floor and a suspension lamp from the Danish factory Gubi.
The bedroom for the nanny is compact and, also looking comfortable and functional, takes into account everything for rest and work. Modern design, big panoramic windows and an area organized for work.
All connecting rooms are also used for the installation of storage systems. Simple and high-quality design solutions by ZOOI studio provided to the owners of the apartment all the necessary furniture. ZOOI designers created this interior in the style of minimalism, which is not tied to trends but is created around the way of life and tastes of customers.
