The Lobelia two-room apartment is a design experiment of a bachelor customer who gravitated to the use of a restrained dark color palette. One of the wishes is a minimum of open shelves and a maximum of closed furniture. Taking into account the customer's ideas, we created a functional interior design in contrasting colors. The alternation of dark and light surfaces does not create the impression of depression and psychological pressure. The compact accommodation looks quite spacious and comfortable. The balance of colors, calculated warm lighting, textile elements create a cozy and romantic atmosphere. This home has become an ideal place for solitude, and can become an equally beautiful family nest for lovers.
