When you are lucky enough to be young, in love, and have the means to find and decorate a luxury apartment there is not much more that you can ask from life. The designs of these two apartments are at the same time youthful and indulgent. Both come complete with modern, playful rooms for children and calming, sumptuous bedrooms for the parents. While they may not have the square footage of more luxurious homes, they are certainly enough to enjoy.
The first space comes from designer Mario Stoica, who uses a range of colors and modern textures to create a comfortable, vibrant space. In the living room, light grays provide a neutral canvas for different shades of green, giving the space the feeling of new growth and new beginnings, which is perfect for a young and growing family. The open floor plan makes it easy to relax on one of the large sofas or sit for a few hours and refuse to eat your broccoli, if necessary.
The child's bedroom is splashy, pretty pink with cleverly executed shelving and even a whimsical rug.
The parent's bedroom does not eschew color completely, but overall offers a much more calming effect with large swaths of neutral and just a few pops of brightness.
An eat-in kitchen is the perfect spot for family meals and breakfasts when the formal dining area is just too much. Its smooth surfaces and simple palette are certainly easy to clean and easier to enjoy.
The second space is not that dissimilar, although the colors are a bit more muted overall. The dining and living area is mostly wood and grey, for a trendy industrial feel without going so far as to incorporate a lot of corrugated metal and concrete. The dining chairs with pointed backs do enough towards that uncomfortable end.
The master bedroom here is all the more serene with deep blue, natural wood and grey making up the majority of the space.
Even the kids room in this apartment is more subdued, using greens, blues, and greys to create a calm atmosphere that still has an edge of creativity and play.
