On one of Moscow’s liveliest streets, a new concept store for children has opened its doors. Wisteria spans 550 square meters and blends a carefully zoned multi-brand retail space with a playroom, a family lounge, and design collectibles more often seen in interior magazines than in children’s environments.

This home was conceived for a couple who travel widely, explore art and bespoke design with curiosity, and respond vividly to everything new — yet remain deeply attached to their home and to each other. It was these sentiments and interests that inspired architects Tatiana Alenina and Vladimir Krasilnikov throughout the project.

Customer addressed ART-UGOL Design and Architecture Studio with a request to design an apartment for a family with a small child. Her wish was to make the space as stylish as possible but keeping the balance between contrasting materials, in other words – accent enough, but not patchy.

ESSENCE, the project explores the emotional depth of architecture, aiming to express balance, stillness, and the human need for quiet. Rather than serving as a neutral backdrop, the interior is treated as an active emotional environment — a spatial reflection of the inner state.
