Replanning a two-room apartment into a three-room open space layout and interior design for a 71 m² apartment.
Task
A young family with a child approached us — owners of a new apartment in one of the towers of the “Primorsky Kvartal” residential complex in Saint Petersburg. The clients wanted:
- a spacious kitchen-living area for socializing and hosting guests;
- a master bedroom and a separate children’s room;
- a roomy storage/utility wardrobe;
- a logical and comfortable layout without dark and awkward areas.
Layout before and after
Initial layout analysis
The original developer’s plan did not meet their needs:
- The 12.4 m² kitchen was too small to serve as a living room and family gathering space.
- The 12.3 m² entrance hall with narrow corridors and multiple doors took up too much useful space.
- There was not enough space to create a third room for fully separated zones.
New planning solution
The optimal format was a combined in open plan kitchen-living room as a common family space + two private rooms.
- We reallocated the excessive area of the entrance hall and combined the kitchen, loggia, and one of the rooms to create an open kitchen-dining-living space of 32.6 m².
- The other half of the apartment became the private wing. The large 19.6 m² room was divided into a master bedroom and a children’s room.
What changed
Common area:
- Kitchen–dining–living room of 32.6 m² with a work nook by the window.
- A bright, open space for gathering, socializing, and relaxing.
Private area:
- Master bedroom (11.3 m²) and children’s room (9 m²) — both with additional workstations.
- A 6.1 m² buffer zone with built-in wardrobes and access to the main bathroom (5 m²).
Entrance hall:
- Compact and convenient format — 5 m².
- Convenient and logical access to the living area.
- Built-in furniture, a guest bathroom (1.7 m²), and a 3.7 m² storage/laundry room.
Design and materials
- Style — contemporary minimalism with an emphasis on comfort, clean lines, and natural materials.
- Color palette — light wood, white, shades of gray, with blue and yellow accents.
- Materials — wooden flooring throughout the open area for a unified feel; natural wood; marble and concrete textures; matte monochrome surfaces.
- Lighting — a track lighting system with directional spotlights for general and accent light, complemented by pendants and local fixtures.
