MONARCH | Babayants Architects

The base of the concept is minimalism with character. The interior is full of ideal lines and proportions, nuances reflecting the hard-core work of architects.
 
Rounded wooden panels are the main leitmotif of the interior. When creating the project concept, architects were inspired, among other things, by the architecture of the building. The external walls of the building have a radius curve and a special angle. This radius was repeated in two zones using veneer structures in the living room and master bedroom. This smoothed corners and soft lines and greatly influenced the atmosphere of the space, making it tactile, soft, and feminine.
 
A delicate honey color palette is prevailing in the interior. The common shades of wood on the floors, walls, furniture, and elements create an enveloping visual impression.
 
The architects looked for warm wood tones for each space that set the overall narrative of the interior. For example, the cabinet and veneer in the master bedroom were selected ton-sur-son.
Looking at this composition, one wants to contemplate the shadows and emerging volumes for a long time.
 
The process of selecting paint for the walls in the rooms took a particularly long time in this project. Babayants Architects always carefully consider shade options for different lighting scenarios. Here they spent a very long time searching that same light gray tone.
 
Finishing materials, wooden elements, cabinet furniture, wall panels and partitions, structures made of natural stone, finishing in bathrooms – all this is custom production, made in Moscow workshops according to the Babayants Architects drawings.
 
To bring the architecture of space, beautiful lines, and proportions to the fore, it’s essential to hide everything technical and remove the secondary. Implementation of such solutions requires discipline and constant attention on the drawings and on-site. The wardrobe and bathroom are hidden in a wooden volume in this project. To do this, Babayants Architects veneered the cabinet fronts, a wall, and a door with a single material and calculated millimeters to bring all the elements into one plane. The aesthetics of minimalism and its purity are built from such decisions.
