Wooden louvers on the facade and the counter recall Eastern lattice work. The total area is 230 square meters.

Flowing Diffusion

Flowing Diffusion is a residential interior for an apartment of 462.8 square meters. The living and dining areas share an open plan that expands the sense of space and hosts more guests.

Titanium coated metal, metallic paint and large tiles are used throughout. Separate bedrooms on opposite sides of the social area reduce disturbance between family members.

Shiroyama

The main theme of the project is interpenetration and interconnection. The design combines metaphors and cultural symbols of Kazakh and Japanese culture. The theme of the Ryoanji Rock Garden and Wabi Sabi is harmoniously intertwined with the sacred Baiterek tree and the stylized Bozzhira mountain range. The surrounding nature penetrates into the interior in the form of stones taken from the shore, sofas stylized as boulders and fills the space with light reflected from the metal ceiling, as well as a natural range of materials.
