When you invite someone into your home, you want them to feel comfortable. Not “take up residence on the sofa and stay a few weeks” comfortable, more like “take off your shoes and enjoy an aperitif” comfortable. There’s a lot to be said for how interior design can make guests feel welcome. These apartments from the designers at Workshop Art all utilize modern design elements in warm and inviting tones. The resulting spaces are exactly the kind of place you would want to bring a friend or two. Have a look.
The first apartment is a perfect space for a young family.
Its warmth and natural materials, including wood and stone, reflect an idea of coziness and comfort.
The front door, set apart with its use of darker wood, melts into the wall and invites you to stay just a little longer.
A cozy dining area complete with the whitewashed brick of a Parisian bistro is just right for a casual meal.
While guests may not generally find themselves in the bedroom, it’s still important for the regular inhabitants to feel comfortable and welcome, too.
The second space is a 60 square meter (645 square feet) apartment in the Russian city of Romashkovo.
This design takes warmth to a new level with whites and creams dominating the design throughout.
An afternoon in this apartment would be akin to spending it in a soft cloud or a Martha Stewart photo shoot.
But perhaps skip the Merlot and bring a nice bottle of Chardonnay. Or even better, water.
When you use color so sparsely, those pops you do use become that much more important. In the bedroom it’s verdant green pillows and a neat, silver wall sculpture.
Lucite dining chairs are designed to disappear into the design and indeed they do. Just make sure every guest has an actual chair underneath them before they go crashing to the ground.
This 38 square meter (409 square feet) apartment in West Kuncevo adds a bit of color back in, but maintains that same warm and cozy feeling.
The space here is all about texture from the plush leather sofa to the gauzy white curtains.
And Eames dining chairs are practically required if you want to call a space modern.
In this 74 square meter (796 square feet) apartment, designers had a bit more space to work with.
A Le Corbusier style chair is a comfortable landing place in the cozy, wood paneled bedroom.
The dining area is small but open with upholstered chairs and a modern blown glass chandelier.
A second bedroom features a more feminine, beachy style with its creative fixtures and private deck.
Even its small mirror resembles a porthole.
The final space is a 45 square meter (484 square feet) apartment with even more color, starting in the living room that features stunning wildlife paintings.
A corner bedroom is a modern, relaxing retreat that features its own grown up version of a beanbag.
The dark marble bathroom with its pedestal sink certainly strays from the warm color palette but stays within the modern framework.
