“Oak Tube’’ Apartment
The apartment is on the 5th floor of a tall
multistory building with inner yard. Large balcony next to the dining room, low location of
the apartment and a part of the house, which strongly shadowed the inner yard –
all these didn't let the sun get into this very part of the house.
The greater part of apartment has vividly oblong
proportions. Space between windows used to be large notably 14 meters. Walls
and balcony made it 2,5 meters larger now its 16,5 meters!
The width between structural solid-cast walls was only
3,3 meters while the places, where ventilating shafts were embedded, made it
even less just 2,8 meters. Having these proportions and spaces it came out that
the middle of the apartment practically was not lightened.
The solution came like this: there shouldn't be dead
walls in this part, instead they are to replace with glass wall which if
necessary can be blinded with curtains.
In the end, the part of the apartment with dining
room, guest space, living space and working place got enlightened from both
sides.
Thus, apartment proportions and poor lighting caused
its space-planning design. As for the middle part it was lifted on the podium,
so that “to catch” the light coming through the window.
Smooth and rounded passages between walls, ceiling and
floor visually joined and expanded the small spacing between the walls in the
living room.
This part of the living room is finished with light
oak tree, which gradually goes from ceiling to floor and walls with its
built-in closets, shelves and desk.
In fact styling design concept was determined by so
called “oak tube” which runs just in the middle of the apartment with its
working and leisure place to which the dining room adjoins it from one side and
the guest room from another.
External parts of “the tube” are fined with composite
stone. The butts of the “tube” imitate the cuts of its form, while loose airy
joining to the walls underlines its ease, giving the illusion of something
brought from outside.
Similar idea was implemented for the bedroom too. The
room is divided into sections which also have smooth, closed passages between
ceiling, floor and walls making up shelves closets and a bed. The butts of the
“tube» is also fined with stone, imitating the cut shape.
As for the part less enlightened it is given to
secondary premises: guest loo, gowning room and a bathroom adjoining bedroom.
Kitchen is sited as separated block contra-lateral to
a window
The floor in the common places like hallway, kitchen,
dining room and corridor is fined with ceramogranite while all private zones
like leisure space, study, and bedroom are fined with oak planks.
