Еntrance hall
We start with the hall, where we reach a ceiling height of about 6m. The staircase is lined with stone, the same as on the floor, we decided to make full glass railings to emphasize the beauty of stairs and the small garden under it. We used faceted mirror with different heights in the space under the stairs, it breaks up the image of the space and offers a depth of field. We decided to make the ceilings clean with built in lights and slotted with concealed lighting under all corners.
Living room and Dining room
In the living room we continue with the use of stone floors, ceiling here again are clear slotted with concealed lighting, but this time we scored the luminaires in slots and we use a darker color for emphasis. We divided the room into three areas – sitting at the fireplace, a corner with sofas at the TV area and the dining area. We used curtains with cornices in the splines between the walls and the ceiling, so that the cornice remains hidden and the hidden light in the ceiling gives a unique glow to the curtains. An accent of the room is the fireplace structure, which is openable in the lower part, and continues along the entire height of the wall, lined by alternating panels of matte and lacquer finish and stone. Another focus is the wall of the closet covered with tiled paneling of matte and lacquer varnish, which in the area of the dining room turns into a cabinet formed by opened and closed drawers, and a wine showcase. The dining room is again in the same color scheme as the living room with three lights over the table which accentuates with color and shape.
Kitchen
In the kitchen again retaining the same color scheme as the rest of the house, again using lacquered furniture and mat boards. In the refrigerator section where we have a niche, we use ceiling-high cabinets which end up equally to the wall to round out the room.
Master bedroom
In the master bedroom the highlights are the ethanol fireplace continuing in the upper part as a cabinet, we have slots in the ceiling which keep the cornices hidden while the curtains are illuminated by the hidden light fixtures, accented with a darker paint is the wall behind the headboard of the bed.
Fitness and sauna
On the third floor at the gym, we kept a part of the style of the whole house and developed the space as comfortable and functional home gym, adding all the necessary appliances as well as a Jacuzzi, sauna and a separate bathroom.
