Modern interior design seems to have undergone a mass desaturation process, with many contemporary homes decked out in a monochrome manner. Monochrome is cool, but so is colour. This apartment, visualised by Ekaterina Domracheva, uses chunks of colourful decor, bright art and accent furniture to enliven a smart monochrome base. This combo results in a vibrant space that is easy to live with, one which feels warm and joyous yet relaxing. Modern pendant lights, the use of texture and subtle wall pattern add bags of interest to the living spaces too. Many of the layouts meet with the challenge of oddly angular room shapes – a challenge that is met with gusto and success.
