Komsomolskaya

This bright flat is located in a 1950s building in Krasnoselskiy District of Moscow. It has a living room, a bedroom, working space, room for the future children and a kitchen. It has been renovated by the owners in the English manner, which suits this space due to some internal architectural similarities.

For the future children’s room Marina initially suggested a dramatic colourful floral print, but the clients decided to choose more minimalist option for the Roman blinds – light grey stripped cotton, to maintain focus on the walls, art and furniture.

Living room curtains made of thick dark grey velvet were chosen to convey the mood of this space named by the client as “Lenin’s funeral”. The main colour palette of black, red and grey emphasise this aesthetic.

The colour of the walls in the bedroom is Little Greene Brighton. Therefore, the choice of fabric for the curtains wasn’t random, it was influenced by the striped fabric of the deck chairs from the pier in Brighton, England.

The home working space curtains were chosen to match the colour of the walls. It doesn’t visually interfere with the architecture of the space.
