Victoria Kolos work immediately recognizable. Decorator, author estetskih interiors, she found her palette and style - the noble and sensual. That's it like to stand and a new interior. Young zakazchitsa traveled the world - Europe, America and magical places of Gorny Altai. Raises a daughter. "I tried to do for her closed shell high above the ground," - says Victoria. Magical transformation produced in just one year. The apartment is in a new metropolitan high-rise building was imperfect data - a square box with windows along one wall that is only good for the studio. Saved the internal layout: as a result of three rooms - bedroom, living room and a children - were on the window. And most importantly - daylight "dragged" in the deaf room - dining room and kitchen. Victoria loves soft lighting, as in the paintings of "small Dutch". Here, the know-how of the Colossus - cambric special screens for windows. The premiere was a success. They give an unusual effect.

Interior window
Due to the layout of a living room, bedroom and children received their share of daylight. In the adjacent deaf rooms - dining room and kitchen - built openings near the ceiling. Such small internal windows are still preserved in the old apartments. They are usually made between the bathroom and a kitchen or storage area.
Through Batista
The house has no curtains. Instead, the windows are covered with small translucent shutters (Dutch) bindings. Victoria came up to lay between the glass thin white batiste. He does not deprive the glass transparency, but the landscape looks like a misty, and the light in the house is softened and dissipated. If desired, the shutters can be separated.
Gamma and reflexes
Decorator knows how to connect with the rough gentle, brilliant with dim. Have put the gloss on the floor, covered with a white enamel. "Go nice and some reflexes!" And though the walls looks. Concrete polished to a mirror shine. Near rough gray plaster. The material is excellent, says decorator. Texture and picturesque better than concrete, and achieved a lot easier.
Important stuff
Details, even the small - the key to success. According to him read performance. They - like line of the dress. Victoria is always kind to the choice of outlets, switches, valves and so on. To the door, a plush, retro-matched handles with faceted glass beads. And in the house a lot of glass and mirrors. There are old from Venice, with a dim amalgam has modern styling. Greater than in the monochrome reflective interior surfaces, the better.
