Design of an one-bedroom apartment 47 m² for a bachelor

Interior Design and Layout Redesign: From a One-Room to a Two-Room 47 m²

Interior style – contemporary, functional minimalism. A grey-beige-graphite palette with natural wood accents and concrete texture creates a calm yet expressive foundation for comfortable living.
Layout – designed for a young bachelor.
Location – “Primorsky Kvartal” residential complex, Saint Petersburg.

Before the Redesign

The space had several layout limitations:

A dark 9-meter hallway with no access to daylight
A complex, zigzag route from the room to the kitchen
A narrow “bottleneck” corridor with intersecting doors to the kitchen and bathroom
Lack of privacy: one room served as both bedroom and living area

After the Redesign

The space became rational and comfortable:

Two-room format with clear zoning
Kitchen–dining–living area of 20.1 m² — a multifunctional space with dedicated zones and convenient navigation
Separate bedroom of 10.7 m², not intersecting with the guest area
Cozy entrance hall of 4 m² with a wide, well-lit passage to the main space
Well-planned routes and smart zoning
Built-in storage systems in the hallway and bedroom
Furnished 5.9 m² loggia — a full-fledged workspace separated from the living area

Result

Smart layout redesign and interior design transformed a one-room apartment into a functional one-bedroom, stylish, and spacious home, ideal for living and entertaining. This apartment is a clear example of how a professional approach can unlock the potential of even a compact space.
