Contemporary Penthouse in Moscow by Geometrix

by Stefan, posted in Apartments, on December 6th, 2010

Penthouses are spacious with large windows and a lot of space. I like to say that this Penthouse in Moscow feature a ultra modern look using the latest appliances and furniture. The penthouse apartment is located on a 57-story building, containing about 1,000 luxury apartments called Triumph Palace, measuring 264.1 meters (866 ft).This penthouse apartment was designed by a Russian design agency, Geometrix.

This is a very beautiful place. It has plenty of space and as for the interior design, it’s just gorgeous. It’s a luxurious place and this is obvious wherever you look. I especially like the living room. It has a very warm and cozy atmosphere. Obviously, all the elements are modern. Every furniture piece was carefully chosen and the overall image is uniform and beautiful. The walls that delimitate the rooms are also interesting. It’s a very clever idea and the result is simple and beautiful.

Staircase storage by Danny Kuo

by Loredana Sava, posted in Apartments, on November 27th, 2010

Space is very important for all the houses, especially if you live in a small apartment where you try to make all your belongings have their own place where you can reach easily. The smallest and most crowded place in a house is usually the hallway because you always need easy access to your shoes and boots, but there’s never enough space for all of them. Not to mention the fact that you have different shoes for different seasons and there are normally more people living in the same house, each with their own shoes to store. And in this case you need the best solution.

Minimalist Apartment in Russia, Moscow by Andrey Gorozhankin

by Stefan, posted in Apartments, on November 24th, 2010

A harmonious interior design is defined by a perfect balance between shapes, forms, colors, textures and styles. The décor doesn’t have to be complicated or complex. Take for example this apartment. Located in the center of Moscow, Russia, this place is very chic and stylish but it’s also very simple. It has a minimalist interior design inspired by the Japanese style.

The apartment was designed by Andrey Gorozhankin. It occupies a surface of 80 square meters and its décor is defined by strong contrasts. There’s also a contrast between the vintage and modern furniture used for this project. The contrasts are deliberate and meant to impress and to create focal points. The living area is a large space with dark flooring and white walls. There’s a very well-defined sitting area with a white area rug and a white sectional. It’s very beautiful how the dark color of the floor takes over portions of the walls and how the white covers some of the dark areas.

Bohemian Apartment in Barcelona

by Stefan, posted in Apartments, on November 18th, 2010

Here is another apartment in Barcelona which features a special charm because it is blending French style spaces within the predominantly ethnic notes on the terrace.The bedroom was decorated with touches of pink on the pillows, curtain and rug to create a colorful and fresh room.

I would like to stay here to blog and entertain people. Actually the terrace is pretty interesting in style, as it borrows something from the Orient; you can see the low coffee tables with short legs and the many colourful pillows spread all over the Persian style carpets. It is all so Arabian Nights like that you suddenly feel transported in another dimension.

by Stefan, posted in Apartments, on November 18th, 2010

This stylish and modern penthouse can be found in downtown Montreal. The project is actually called Montreal Penthouse and it was developed by Canadian interior designer René Desjardins He chose a contemporary style for this apartment. With a total surface of 3,300 square feet, this place is huge. Situated on the 23rd floor, the penthouse also benefits from panoramic views over the city.

The apartment was divided into two main zones. One is the social areas and it includes the living room, the dining area, the kitchen and a home theatre. The other one is the private zone that contains the bedrooms. This distinction is very functional as it maintains a quiet and tranquil environment for the bedroom areas which should normally be relaxing and it provides you with more freedom regarding the social spaces. The living room is very spacious. It has white walls and charcoal grey accent walls that give it a modern and minimalist look.

Frank and Amy Loft in New York

by Stefan, posted in Apartments, on November 17th, 2010

Located in a old industrial building in New York, this apartment looks so big and was designed by Resolution: 4 Architecture for an art critic and a film editor, the Loft of Frank and Amy designed and decorated in sober colors makes the space larger.A primary feature of this loft is a series of huge sliding doors that can open the entire perimeter of the loft or that can extend to the exterior walls to close off bedrooms.

This way you can arrange it any way you want: if you need more space simply use these doors and you will have more space. If, on the contrary, you want some privacy and want to divide it, fine – do that. You only use the limits when you feel the need to, which is great. The whole loft has hard floors, covered with big tiles or big stone plates, something that makes it a bit too cold to my taste. But if you use it for a painting workshop or something similar, then you have a reasonable point.

All the furniture is modern and very functional, with futuristic design and no trace of wood unless intended to be used as decoration like covering the door of some device. The ceiling is pretty high, so they use some big and powerful ceiling lamps that are pretty unique in style and bring an extra touch to the general design of the apartment.
