It’s difficult to say what exactly makes a luxury apartment different from other regular ones. It’s usually a combination of features which has to do with the overall style chosen for the interior of the apartment, the furnishings used throughout the rooms, the palette of colors and materials and also the amount and type of decorative elements displayed on the walls or in other forms. This apartment from Kiev, in Ukraine is a very successful representation of all those elements. Its interior was designed by studio YøDezeen in 2017.

The apartment is situated in the Diamond Hill luxury residential complex and has a rather aristocratic feel to it. It’s filled with natural light which enters through the floor-to-ceiling windows, it’s airy and welcoming thanks to the wooden floors and it also has a dramatic look which is perhaps given by the palette of dark colors and the molding on the walls. The spaces are furnished with elegant accent pieces such as the Lawrence Sofa which defines the living area or the sculptural Twombly chairs from the dining room.
