Country house with a medieval portal

500 m2 2016 New Moscow Photo Author Zinur Razutdinov

We had two starting points for this project: a finished house in the style of Frank Lloyd Wright and some antique sixteenth-century French chairs. The clients had their hearts set on a classic interior. This inspired us to create a museum-type space, combining antique and ultra-contemporary elements. We wanted to fabricate a story where the objects gathered under one roof from different eras would create the impression that the house has been lived in by several generations.

It’s all about the details in this interior, we got almost everything custom-made to our design, from doors and moulding to bronze hooks. The centrepiece is a Gothic style stucco portal in the foyer, which conceals the supporting columns.
