Interior Design, Simplicity, And Self Exploration

Visualised by Shamil Kalimulaev, this home design is born from a journey of self-exploration. The designer’s own tastes and desires have shaped an airy living space that’s styled with modern classics. Clean simplicity factors as one of the main components of the interior design. In the words of Yukio Mashima: “Simplicity is the highest point of wisdom. Anyone who disdains simplicity only evokes pity. If a person is afraid of simplicity, then he is far from maturity.” In the bedroom, an atmospheric lighting plan accentuates fashionably textured decor components and a neoclassical twist. A soothing yet solid scheme of stone grey, luxe black marble, and matching matt black fixtures shade the stylish bathroom.

A pure white colour scheme, high ceilings, and tall windows build an ethereal living room decor scheme. A white living room rug underlines a curvaceous white sofa design that is just too cushiony to resist.

A pair of living room chairs add in bold tan and black accents at either side of the lounge arrangement.

Glass nesting coffee tables take a tint of tan into the centre of the light living room, where a single coffee table book provides minimalist adornment. A white concrete planter houses an explosion of emerald greenery alongside.

At the other side of the lounge chair duo, a huge wall mirror reflects the room, making it appear twice its actual size.

Classical boiserie fashions a neoclassical essence behind the more modern room elements. A piece of wall art displays an on trend arch motif.

In the dining room, a rice paper pendant light is hung low over the round pedestal dining table to create a cosy ensemble.

A round glass vase complements the silhouette of the light fixture.

The dining room pendant light is the Formakami pendant by Jaime Hayón for &Tradition.

The base of the dining table carries a fashionable fluted finish, which is repeated in the glass vase centrepiece.

Fluted glass panes glaze double doors that lead into the kitchen. Matt black hardware brings the traditional door design bang up to date.

Once inside the kitchen diner, we’re met with a luxurious white marble kitchen island in the centre of the room, which doubles as a casual dining space/breakfast bar.

A simple linear suspension light illuminates the length of the marble kitchen island and its glossy finish.

The white marble countertop wraps the ends of the kitchen island as one sleek flowing piece. Black kitchen appliances are integrated into a wall of built-in black cabinets.

A minimalist glass vase filled with dried pampas grass and a white modern fruit bowls decorate the worktop. See more beautiful options for modern fruit bowls here.

Three stylish kitchen bar stools line up warm cognac accents against the cool white marble backdrop of the island. Black metal frames give the stools a sharp edge that coordinates with a matt black kitchen faucet behind.

Black base units provide dark contrast at the back of the black, white and wood tone kitchen design. A trio of cutting boards echo the room palette in solid black, white marble and natural wood finishes. A single modern wall sconce is prettily framed by traditional decorative boiserie, where it adds focussed task lighting above the hob.

Moving on into the bedroom concept, we find a boiserie frame filled by a huge mirror. The mirror is ideally placed to increase the feeling of space and light around a small workspace in the corner of the room. A cream swivel chair provides a light contradiction of colour against the black floating desk.

A linear wall light evenly brightens the whole length of the desk without eating into the work space. A modern headphone stand could tidy up the work area a little further still though.

Fluted wall panels hang en vogue texture across the headboard feature wall. An upholstered bed complements the vertical texture in channel tufted linen.

Modern bedroom pendant lights hang simple tubular shades over bothe bedside tables.

The bedside table design is a unique sloping silhouette that adds a chic contemporary vibe against the classical boiserie backdrop.

LED ribbons are fixed all around the edges of the fluted wall panels to create a glowing, floating effect.

A pale grey bedroom rug softens the floor area around the bed. Oak planks lay down a natural floor across the rest of the bedroom, which ties in cohesively with the hallway, living room, and kitchen diner.

White bed covers lay out a fresh cloud of comfort on the beige bed base.

Doors and door frames are painted to camouflage cleanly with the warm white walls of the home.

As we move into the bathroom, we’re met with another interpretation of the fluted texture trend, which threads a cohesive theme throughout the apartment. An illuminated round mirror and globe bathroom vanity lights build up a soft and atmospheric lighting plan. A contemporary radiator cradles clean bathroom linens on heated shelves.
