All interior designers want to create a space in which the furnishings, floorings, colors, and light exist in harmony. In the cold and sometimes dismal climates of Russia and Ukraine, the use of natural sunlight is that much more important. But interior designer Pavel Voytov manages to create spaces that feel as bright, sunny, and welcoming as any warm summer day. The designer uses many elements of modern design, including clean simple lines and limited color palettes, to create beautiful homes that are beautiful, modern, and also livable. In this post we will take a look inside eight of his designs for a big picture overview of his style and technique.
The first home makes creative use of vibrant colors, beginning with a luscious royal blue sofa in an otherwise calming, neutral living room. The space also uses the interesting textures of wood paneling with the accent wall where the television is displayed.
In the kid’s room, the shocks of color don’t stop with bright splashes of yellow and teal, inspired by Cartoon Network favorite Adventure Time. The room also includes a requisite workspace for homework.
In the parent’s bedroom, color are much more subdued with whites and beiges falling from the soft heavy curtains and ending in the pristine hardwood floors. Though the design of this home is certainly modern, it never feels uncomfortable or cold.
The second home uses many of the same elements of simplicity, but takes a more subtle approach towards color. The living room in this open floor plan design is largely neutral, with just a bit of a nod to brightness with its rust colored armchair. It’s the perfect allusion to the fabulous interiors of the 1970’s without going so far as to feel antique or overdone.
This kitchen uses white and light wood, along with pretty, gauzy curtains to give the homeowner a beautiful spot to start the day. The breakfast bar is just as much as kitchen island, making it an easy place to pause for a drink or gab with the chef.
Black and white design can look very modern, but runs to risk of kitschy, calling to mind a 1950’s diner. Instead of going full monochrome, Voytov uses black and white along with earthy tones of gray, beige, and brown which manage to envelop anyone who enters while staying sleek.
The bedroom stays with the same palette, bringing in a bit more white, which makes it a clean and lovely place to retreat at the end of the day.
The earth tones in the previous designs have tended more towards warm browns and beiges, but in this fourth home Voytov moves into the cooler dark gray tones with slate, concrete, and gunmetal. The aesthetics are modern but perhaps a bit more masculine and calming in their design.
The bedroom includes a chocolate brown duvet and creative ceiling-mounted mobile, giving a nod to Voytov’s artistic pursuit of sculpture. In the mast bath, an angular tub, elevated from the rest of the room is a bit of simple, modern luxury.
The next home is a bright and beachy, from the sand colored area rug (complete with zen-inspired textures) to the pretty ocean blue thrown on the simple sofa. Even the curtains seem inspired by the water with their heavy, blue texture that seems to cascade like a waterfall over the window.
In the home’s front room we have a fresh color scheme that uses a mossy green, which still manages to bring the calming beauty of nature indoors.
The kitchen and dining area are small but feel bigger than they are with use of a lot of white as well as diffused lighting that comes from overhead for a soft look throughout.
This next space again uses a structured armchair in the living room to break up the neutral color patterns. This time, the chair is a rich and delicious mustard color and has uniquely molded arms. Against the sandy shag carpet, this smooth chair acts as a stylistic focal point.
The setup of this apartment aims for contrast, putting the sofa and kitchen island directly opposed to one another, separating the relaxing living space from the sharp and smooth surfaces of the kitchen.
This next design is a bit different that most of Voytov’s other interiors. This home is decidedly softer with many more frills, pastels, and feminine touches. There are also many more accessories throughout, from throw pillows to vases to books perched on windowsills.
Despite the more elaborate feel overall, the home still employs the subtle colors and simplicity in the furnishings, walls, and fabrics with neutral tones and soft textures.
The final home is a return to Voytov’s typical style, with minimal furnishings and fussing. The cool gray theme in the living room, which contrasts with electric yellow paintings and other accessories.

Most people need to add extras such as sugar, honey, or fruit to make porridge palatable. There’s none of that malarkey for a true Scot. They like their breakfast oats seasoned not sweetened.
Question: “What are you having for lunch?”
Answer: “Piece ‘n’ chicken” or “Piece ‘n’ cheese.” If you’re particularly skint that week, it might be “A jam piece.”
When in Edinburgh, as the guys behind the counter at the local chip shop are wrapping up your order, they’ll ask if you want salt ‘n’ sauce. What they’re referring to is a watered-down version of British brown sauce, similar to HP Sauce.
Don’t be surprised when ordering chips anywhere in Scotland though if you’re also given a huge choice of extra toppings. Most popular are chips ‘n’ cheese, chips ‘n’ beans, chips ‘n’ curry, and chips ‘n’ gravy. You can even have triple combinations. Chips, cheese ‘n’ beans anyone?
Ordering any kind of meal deal in Scotland will probably include the question “What juice / ginger do you want?” They’re referring to fizzy drinks like coke or Fanta. In Scotland, there’s a big chance the answer will be “Irn Bru.”
Irn Bru (pronounced Iron Brew) is a bright orange, vanilla-flavoured ‘juice’ that’s so popular in Scotland it outsells the mighty Coca-Cola. If you’re a young Scottish male, you buy it by the litre bottle and can quite easily get through it in a day. For everyone else, it’s the first thing you reach for the morning after a big night out.
If you’re eating it here, it’s local. Salmon is Scotland’s biggest food export, with farms sending their produce to over 60 countries worldwide.
Traditionally, stovies are made from the leftovers from a Sunday roast: beef, tatties (potatoes), carrots, onions, and any other vegetables you have, all stewed with a whole load of lard. As an adult you might order stovies for a trip down memory lane, but it’s more likely you’re a workie (builder) or football fan in winter looking for a hearty meal at the pub to both warm and fill you up.
Most chippies will serve pizza this way, sometimes battered, but more often than not it’s simply a piece of dodgy frozen pizza thrown straight into the deep fat fryer. Your arteries won’t be happy, but you probably won’t care since you’ve just stumbled out of a nightclub at three in the morning.
But you’ll happily admit they’re delicious.
The result of the above is called a clootie dumpling and is what you’d traditionally be served for dessert at Christmas or other festive occasions. It starts out very similarly to regular fruitcake mix, but it’s then put in a ‘cloot’ or cloth sack, boiled, then finished off in the oven to get a slight crust. You eat it warm, served with whisky-laced cream, custard, or ice cream. Yum.
To be fair, sheep’s offal mixed with oats and spices, stuffed in a sheep’s stomach lining, and then boiled don’t sound very appetising. But Scots know better. These days it’s easier to become a fan of haggis.
Firstly, it’s more likely to be encased in a sausage skin than a sheep’s intestine, and today it’s eaten in all sorts of new ways. My favourite is the haggis bon bon; haggis that’s rolled in breadcrumbs then deep fried. You might also find it as a meat substitute in Italian dishes like ravioli and lasagne, or at the good old chippy, where you can get it battered and deep fried. There’s even a vegetarian version.
There’s a perception that whisky is all a Scot drinks. Not so. Firstly, good whisky is expensive, so it’s hardly what many people can afford to go on a weekly bender with. Secondly, have you tried the stuff? It’s very much an acquired taste — more likely to be something you’d learn to truly appreciate in your later years. But it’s common for a Scot to have a ‘wee dram’ of whisky as a beer chaser or just as a warming shot in winter.
Tattie scones are a sort of flatbread made from mashed potato, butter, and flour, and are usually found as part of a full Scottish breakfast. But they’re even better eaten in a roll. If you want to turn it up yet another notch of deliciousness, ask for some bacon and square sausage on your roll too.

The City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia is a unique complex devoted to scientific and cultural dissemination which is made up of five main elements: the Hemisfèric, finished in 1995 (IMAX cinema and digital projections), the Umbracle (a landscaped vantage point and car park), the Príncipe Felipe Science Museum (an innovative centre of interactive science), the Oceanográfico (the largest aquarium in Europe with over 500 marine species) and the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía, (which takes care of the operatic programme). The Ágora gives the complex a multifunctional space. Along an axis of just under two kilometres that was formerly the bed of the River Turia, this complex promoted by the Generalitat Valenciana has striking and futuristical architecture, designed by Santiago Calatrava and Félix Candela – and an endless capacity for entertaining and stimulating the minds of its visitors. In its various buildings they can get to know different aspects of science, technology, nature, and art. Photograph by phigun phigun.
