A granddaughter transforms her grandmother’s apartment into a cozy haven for her twilight years. Witness the stunning before-and-after photos and feel the warmth of this beautiful transformation.
The photographs cannot even convey the negative state the apartment was in before the transformation. And although it was possible to live in it, the appearance did not evoke positive emotions.
The kitchen cabinets were cracked, and to hide the defects, they were covered with cheap film.
The layout of the apartment itself is convenient, one balcony opens from the bedroom, there is also a large dressing room, next to it there is an office, opposite the bedroom there is a living room, and from it there is access to a second balcony, a combined bathroom and a spacious kitchen.
Agree, the apartment itself is spacious in layout. Next I’ll tell you what she looked like before.
The hallway and kitchen do not have doors between them; they are divided into zones, and this is done using various flooring materials, porcelain stoneware and tiles that imitate a wooden floor.
The height of the rooms is three meters, and the area of the apartment is almost 80 m2.
Throughout the apartment, a variety of colors are used for decoration, ranging from bright yellow to olive, as well as light grey, ocher, brown tones, black and terracotta. This mixture of colors can be found in every room of this apartment.
I love kitchens in light colors, coffee, white, beige, but here the decoration includes a combination of brown and orange, and it all looks harmonious, without flashy notes.
Have you seen what the bathroom originally looked like? Now it is a stylish and functional space. Soft gray is shaded with red-brown tones, and this contrast is attractive.
The entire interior of the apartment resembles an autumn garden in color, and it will be very comfortable to stay in it both in the intense summer heat and in the icy and cold winter.
A cabinet for towels and other home textiles is located right in the bathroom. Look at its photo after assembly and installation.
Now let’s look into the living room. Previously, there was a small window with a balcony door, but now it has been replaced with a large window, and the entrance to the balcony remains on the side. By the way, this solution also looks interesting from the outside of the building.
While waiting for guests to arrive, the hostess places a large dining table in the living room. A vase with fresh flowers must be placed on it.
There is also a restored rocking chair in the living room; now it is not only a stylish decorative element, but also a comfortable piece of furniture.
It’s good that the dining table can be disassembled, because it is universal. It slides apart for guests to arrive, and the rest of the time it can be safely used in the kitchen. It’s good when furniture is transformable and can be used in different places.
The bedroom has also undergone innovation. If you look at the photo of the renovated bedroom, you will see that the result is a stylish room that can be displayed like a sample from a fashion magazine.
Minimalism was used as a style for the bedroom furnishings. And now every thing is in its place.
But the office is decorated in retro style. Reproductions from the 70s and 80s, as well as old photos from the early 20th century, are hung on the walls. There is even an old globe installed here. Furniture includes a beautiful antique table with massive legs.
Well, how would you remodel an apartment like this? And keep in mind that it is located in the center of Moscow, and must match the style and sophistication.
