Hello!
I'd like to show you my tiny apartment in Russia, Saint-Petersburg.
Total area of the flat is 335 sq. ft.
MCM is not very common for Russia, so it is not a typical russian flat.
I want to thank members and owners of this forum - great place to know about beautiful things.

Great, Rustam!
I've noticed in your earlier posts you have quite the collection of lamps.
You buy these in Russia?
Great photography skills too, you take very clean pics.

Thank you, bj!
Yes, all lamps I got in Russia, paid for them in common less than $20 for each.
Previous owners sold me lamps knowing nothing about them. They told me they want to have something new, that is why they put it for sale.
I liked these lamps and this forum let me know that I'm on a right way buying them.

What a beautiful flat, such...
What a beautiful flat, such great use of space and it just shows you don't need a big place to create a look. The yellow lamp on the shelves is fantastic.
Would love to see a few more of your pieces in detail & perhaps the sofa too. Must be a great sanctuary from the cold Russian winter!
well done!

Great!
Congratulations!!!!
Everithing is nice.
Lovely to see some similar ideas, with a different "accent".
ps: I also like that lamp that you "changed" to make it more interesting (that I agree).

Love your
flat! It's really fresh and fun. How did you get your books all color shaded that way? At first I thought you just covered them but then I noticed the printing on the spines.

Thanks for comments!
The colored books are the collection of the most impressive works from the world literature.
These books were published in the USSR from 1967 to 1977. There are 200 volumes. You can get these books in russian antique shops.

Great apartment, great pieces. Some advice... lose the rug in the living room... your parquet floor is amazing!

.
I'm afraid that without carpet the room will be less cozy and carpet helps to muffle room to absorb sound reflections and with carpet music sound better.
I think that natural white deep-piled carpet would look good on the dark parquet floor.

Style over cosyness each and every time 🙂
I do think a white one would look good. Wouldn't pay me too much attention, the apartment looks lovely.
