Balancing water, air and earth, Olga Lagodnaia turns a Moscow apartment into an intimate landscape where art, memory and nature coexist.
A 90-square-metre apartment tells the story of a distinct way of looking at the world. Designed by interior designer Olga Lagodnaia, the home belongs to a couple of travellers and art collectors.
The interior was conceived as a space designed to evolve over time, accommodating new artworks and objects gathered on their travels. The initial challenge lay in finding a common language; the owners had contrasting tastes, ranging from minimalism to eclecticism and classicism. Travel photographs revealed landscapes and atmospheres capable of capturing what moves them, sparking the idea to build the project around the forces of nature: water, air and earth.
In the living room, the painting Waiting for the Wind, overlooking the river, acts as a narrative presence, finding an echo in the large kinetic chandelier. Resembling a windcatcher, its suspended elements appear to react to the air itself.
Ultimately, the home is a small, evolving landscape where stone, water and air meet personal memory. The result is a masterclass in designing not merely with forms and functions, but through sensations, memories and the unique lens with which each person looks at the world.
