This apartment is located in the residential complex "Central Avenue" in Almaty, Kazakhstan, on the 14th floor. With a total area of 136.3 square meters, the interior design was crafted by Alena Krasatulina. The interior was designed for a young, successful family who values quality, beauty, and aesthetics.  

The owner’s request was for a dark, intimate space with a specific atmosphere, featuring floating ceilings and shadowed skirting. This was not the first collaboration between the designer and the clients, allowing the project to be built on mutual trust and understanding.

The standout feature of this apartment is its large panoramic windows, offering stunning views of Almaty from three sides. The high ceilings provide a sense of openness and allow for creative freedom in design. The apartment was initially in a rough condition with monolithic walls, so minimal structural changes were made.   The hallway was reimagined to include two wardrobes and a main guest bathroom.

The concept of the design can be described as "The Power of Nature in Interior."   The space exudes a raw, masculine character, embodying the essence of nature with references to volcanoes, minerals, metals, and rocks.   A standout piece is the fiery sofa in the living room, symbolizing molten lava.   The focal point of the space is the illuminated Patagonia stone used for the backsplash and kitchen island.

The apartment features smart home systems, enhancing both convenience and functionality.  The successful creation of a dark, intimate atmosphere without making the space feel gloomy stands out as one of the project’s key achievements. The kitchen and living area blend seamlessly, with the Patagonia stone acting as a striking centerpiece. The natural tones throughout the interior evoke a sense of calm and serenity.
