The large apartment is located in a Stalin’s era house and combines classical and Art Deco style
with exotic African elements. When travelling along Africa the owner found various decorative
pieces for the interior. They defined the future style of the apartment. The wall behind the fireplace,
covered with gold vintage tiles with ethnic African graphics formed a dominated background of the
living room. Casement panels drawings tell us about life of African aborigines, splash back is faced
with small aged terracotta mosaics. The main connection between a living-room and a kitchen is a
designer frame over a dining table from gold mosaics with a flat colorful drawing of a cockatoo. A
bed-room is painted in pastel colors. Curved line decorative boxes and iron furniture balance with
light organza canopy and tulle on the windows.
