An Apartment Designed as One Continuous Space With No Breaks Between Living Zones
The apartment is planned as one continuous space where kitchen, dining, and living areas connect without breaks. Circulation stays direct, with no walls interrupting movement. Ceiling moldings and recessed details define each zone while keeping full visual connection across the plan. The layout reads clearly from entry, with each function placed in sequence.
Material contrast builds the structure. White polished porcelain flooring runs across the entire apartment and reflects light, while dark wood veneer panels define key walls and storage. The kitchen remains flush, with appliances and cabinetry aligned into a single surface. At the center, the backlit onyx island acts as the main architectural element, organizing seating and circulation around it.
Custom elements reinforce the layout. Brass-framed stools mark the island edge and repeat as an accent across details. A geometric wood-paneled wall defines the workspace without adding objects. In the living area, low seating and mirrored storage extend the space and maintain clear sightlines, keeping the composition consistent across zones.
The project was designed by SOIA Design, with interior architects Anton Baklan and Ekaterina Baklan, and photographed by Vlad Feoktistov. The bathroom follows the same approach with large marble panels, dark volumes for the vanity, and glass partitions for the shower, maintaining material consistency and a clear, functional layout across the apartment.
