Russian estate surrounded by picturesque nature
The house of the famous artist is located just 20 km from Moscow in the village of Tolstopaltsevo. Mikhail built his ancestral nest right next to the relict forest. Within walking distance there is Alyoshkin pond with landscaped banks for recreation. The infrastructure of the town is not very developed, only a small shop is open. But it doesn't matter for the family, because the capital is just a stone's throw away.
Choosing a project and building a house
In such an ideal place, choosing a Russian-style log house is the only right decision. The project was carried out by the St. Petersburg architectural bureau. After agreeing on the nuances, the estate was built in just two years. All the work was supervised by the wife of Mikhail Porechenkov, the financial component and the general solution of problems fell on the artist's shoulders.
The ancestral nest turned out to be very similar to its owner: the same brutal and reliable. The second floor offers an amazing view of endless fields, bright sunsets and Russian nature. For the interior arrangement, it was important to choose a design that would be in perfect harmony with the outside world.
Interior decoration details
Mikhail's wife graduated from the Academy of Arts, so she took all the design into her own hands.
Modern kitchen
The kitchen is the domain of the spouse. Despite the fact that the artist was the host of a culinary show, he does not like to cook, and he does not know how. The program, where the invited guests showed their skills, was just a way of communication for Mikhail.
They put in the kitchen snow-white headset in minimalism style with integrated handles. Almost all household appliances were placed in a side case. A working area was equipped on the island with stone sink and gas hob, over which a powerful cylindrical hood was installed.
A stylish snow-white panel with a slight gloss was fixed on the wall, on which they hung a plasma. The design is complemented by high black bar stools. Several steam rooms illuminate the space spotlights on the stretch matte fabric.
Dining area decoration
The dining area was organized in the most comfortable room of the house with two panoramic windows and access to a landscaped backyard. Solid wood dining table with carved legs, painted white. The table top is decorated with spectacular inlay. Nearby were placed comfortable high-backed chairs upholstered in light-colored fabric.
Majestic living room
In the living room with a second light, a cozy seating area with elegant sofas and low coffee table, which houses an unusual chessboard with wooden pieces. Columns add grandeur to the room. The lower row of windows is draped with thick curtains, the upper glazing was left open to allow natural light to penetrate into every corner of the space.
Arrangement of a study
Mikhail Porechenkov's office is not just a working space. The actor is an avid hunter and devotes all his free time to his hobby. A spacious cabinet-safe was made for the collection of guns. One of the trophies - the head of a wild boar - takes its rightful place in the wall near the window.
Mikhail Porechenkov goes hunting with his friends in the forests of the Saratov and Tula regions. The corral begins at dawn and sometimes ends after midnight. After that - a compulsory dinner and realistic or anecdotal stories from the life of hunters.
When there is no opportunity to go hunting, Mikhail goes to the nearest shooting club, where he gladly knocks down plates and knocks out dozens at targets. This short rest is the best way to help him recover from a busy work schedule.
Cozy nursery
The children's room was set up on the second floor. In order to diversify the interior and bring it closer to eco-style, one wall near bunk bed made accent. Spectacular wallpaper with colorful floral and plant print. The green range of canvases fits perfectly into the overall design.
Choice of furniture and decor
Mikhail and Olga have long chosen for themselves the famous Belgian furniture brand Flamant Concept Store. A representative office of the company was opened in the capital, in which the family ordered almost all the furnishings for their Russian estate.
Summary
Mikhail Porechenkov rarely talks about the main secret of his home. The fact is that from the windows of the second floor two spruces are visible, which are more than 200 years old for two. Therefore, the artist loves to relax in the evenings before going to bed, looking at the amazing wonders of nature.
In our opinion, Olga coped with the task perfectly and arranged a very harmonious and incredibly soulful interior. What do you think? Share your opinion in the comments.
