With the inability to move or remove the panel structures that segment this Apartment Makeover, the challenge was to arrange functional areas to best serve the new homeowners. Displayed by Victoria Aloshina, the 35.3-square-foot apartment has an entrance hall with a wardrobe, a kitchen and dining room, a compact bathroom and toilet, and a living room that merges with the bedroom, main wardrobe and toilet area. The interior is a pure white and light gray aesthetic with a soft and comfortable atmosphere. Storage was installed in each corner to maintain a clear and open attraction without visual noise or overpowering.
We begin our tour of this comfortable apartment in the living room, where soft gray walls, a small sofa and a complementary upholstered stool build a soothing colored base along with clear white elements. Framed wall art places a warm visual anchor on the sofa’s focal wall.
A black side table and a matching black floor lamp place a dark contrast around one end of the sofa, where they form a comfortable and practical reading area. A small textured rug lies a light break on the hardwood floor.
The window end of the living room switches works into a comfortable bedroom. A solid white podium bed base serves to visually separate the bedroom from the living room and also offers large storage space. Olive accent cushions and matching throw add a muted color.
The podium bed and master wardrobe form a single cube that can be sectioned behind a door curtain. The cloth is clean so that natural light from the window still falls on the living room when the bedroom is closed.
A decorative vase adds a contrasting black accent to a white radiator cover under the window, where a sweet bird image overlooks a city view.
An open shelf makes a decorative end to the run of white closets in the bedroom cube. A minimal book collection and a few underrated candles lightly adorn the tower of shelves. A floating vanity table is assembled next to the bedroom cube to form a wardrobe with a large mirror.
A small TV is wall mounted next to the vanity area where it can be watched both from the sofa and from the bed.
The special cut vanity mirror from floor to ceiling increases light and the perception of space in the small room.
The kitchen dining room is isolated from the living room / bedroom, separated from the entrance. The kitchen is a compact room and so simple white kitchen units have been utilized to help the space feel bigger and brighter.
A small dining table is placed in the corner of the room by the window. Modern white dining chairs with olive cushions seat two. A small dining table hanger attractively anchors the dining set in place.
Open kitchen shelves give the opportunity to add some decoration to the minimalist kitchen installation.
Black appliances are in stark contrast to the white cabinets in the small kitchen. A light gray counter subtly shades the preparation area.
Originally the apartment had a very long balcony area. To make better use of this additional space, the outdoor balcony area has been halved in favor of a new indoor part that can accommodate the young homeowners in all weather.
In the spacious home entrance, a tufted cubic puff puts a deep olive accent next to a mirror wall. The chair and mirror make a useful wardrobe for putting on shoes and last minute check appearance before stepping out the door.
An LED strip light pulls along the top edge of the along-cut mirror to offer bright light where there are no windows.
The full-length mirror widens the look of the hallway on one side, while a small entrance shelf makes it a convenient place to put down keys and phones. A small lamp adds a soft glow to the shelf, which serves as a corridor night light after dark.
The enclosed balcony makes for comfortable reading and also serves as a valuable storage space. A hidden storage box inserts into the deep base of the built-in reading chair, and shallow top cabinets extend to the ceiling line. Narrow shelves add a decorative element.
The remaining outdoor balcony serves the couple well in warmer weather. A set of modern outdoor chairs and a small side table form a great place to have coffee.
Vertical subway tiles covered the walls from the vain backsplash to the shower wall. A very narrow towel warmer and a cloth washbasin press into a tight corner in between. An angled shower cabin clears a walkway across the small bathroom while offering adequate space inside.
The bathroom doubles as a service room, an olive green appliance housing unit contains the sink dryer and neatly hides laundry supplies upstairs.
The 3D floor map illustrates the new division of balcony space between outdoor and indoor use.
The outdoor balcony area is accessed by the new indoor section, where the door can be leaned open to create a gentle breeze in the reading room.
