In the very center of Chelyabinsk, Russia, just a few minutes from Revolution Square, we visit a polished city apartment in the desirable Freedom Tower complex. Visualised by Anova Interior Design, this 114 square metre concept explores a high contrast decor scheme. Light frothy champagne tones are challenged by darker tonal elements that bring warmth and maturity. Modern lighting takes on a huge role within the polished contemporary scheme, creating a magical glow that builds an atmosphere of anticipation. Sleek yet uber comfortable modern furniture adds layer upon layer of luxe throughout the apartment, fashioning a welcoming haven away from the speed of the city.
