The interior was created for a young couple, leading an active lifestyle, loving to travel, moving around the world, often on official business trips. The “bivouac” lifestyle of the owners influenced the taste preferences, which resulted, in turn, in a number of wishes and requirements for designers at the initial stage of work. Bright unforgettable impressions of the trips turned out to be the only value worthy of collecting, and the apartment was to become a kind of sterile laboratory for “developing” the tape seen and experienced.
Christian ideals, which are the deep foundations of modern Western civilization and partially embodied in it, have now lost their former meaning: the gap between them and the empirical reality is growing. Leaving aside the causes of these complex processes, one should pay attention to what ideals are approved instead of leaving. The area of Christian values begins to replace the priorities of a different rank and order - hedonistic.
It would seem that hedonism is an obsolete doctrine that clearly demonstrated its inconsistency, and today we can only talk about what R. Barth called "bellows of hedonism." In fact, the hedonistic principle of pleasure, taken as a life strategy, turned out to be in great demand both in the past XX century and the new XXI. The modern cultural situation is marked by such a phenomenon as hypergedonia - an increased desire of a person for pleasures, pleasures, and entertainment. It can be said without exaggeration that in our world the concept of “hedonism” has become related to code terms.
1) Convenience planning and ergonomics; disclosure of space in the direction of the panoramic windows;
2) Mandatory implementation of effective engineering solutions in the project;
3) Minimum amount of furniture and accessories;
4) Use in the decoration of natural materials;
5) Restrained and laconic color scale with the dominance of gray shades;
The listed items turned out to be the cornerstone laid in the aesthetic and functional basis of the project.
The specificity of this apartment is its one-sided orientation.
Located on the 24th floor of a residential complex, which in turn was erected on one of the city hills, it allowed to get a breathtaking panoramic view of the south-western part of Kiev environs from the windows. An additional task that the group of authors was setting itself was the development of the architectural style of the complex itself in the internal space of a specific cell (as a tribute to the master who created the architecture).

As a matter of fact, the interior design included elements of reconstruction, where the kitchen area became part of the living room space, the guest room was expanded by moving the kitchen, a shower room appeared in the guest bathroom, and two hidden dressing rooms joined the bedroom. Supply and exhaust ventilation is arranged by means of low-noise equipment of Spanish (S & P) and German (MAICO) production. The temperature of the supplied air in winter is adjustable by the user. Quality climate control is guaranteed by a single DAIKIN system (Japan). Regulatory parameters of air in each zone are provided by a separate channel unit of the air conditioner with air supply through the grilles.
In order to reduce the noise level in the living rooms, the main equipment was moved to the utility rooms.
The unrestrained hedonism, with its philosophy of carpe diem, with the slogans “to enjoy without constraint”, “everything and this very minute”, is becoming a thing of the past; instead, there is a rational, hygienic, enlightened. Technologies are being developed to bring a person into the proper form, sparing medicine, dietary regimes, means for relaxation are being introduced, a lot of all kinds of personal care products appear. The era of hedonism continues.
