“Grazhdanka” Hotel
A 20-room hotel in the historic centre of Kolomna, a few minutes from the Kremlin. An old building was reconstructed as a hotel, and KStudio developed a Design Project with Selection of furniture and materials and provided design supervision. The main idea of the interior is cosiness: guests should feel at home rather than in a standard room.

The task
To turn an old building into a small city hotel with a warm, homely atmosphere. The interior had to be practical for the hotel’s daily operation: easy to clean, durable and equally good-looking in all 20 rooms.
Starting point
Reconstruction of an old building in the historic part of Kolomna, total area 400 m². The rooms are compact, about 18 m², yet they have to fit everything needed for a comfortable stay.
Design solution
The lobby welcomes guests with light marble-effect porcelain tiles and a curved illuminated reception desk. Bright upholstered sofas — mustard by reception and blue in the hall — set a friendly mood straight away. The rooms come in two palettes: a cool blue one and a warm one with a feature wall of bird-and-branch wallpaper. Each room of about 18 m² fits a bed, wardrobe, armchair, TV and an en-suite shower room.
Cosiness in every room
Cosiness comes from details: soft warm light from wall lamps above the headboard, heavy curtains with light tulle, velvet armchairs, furniture in a warm grey-oak tone and live plants. The bathrooms are bright — terracotta, green and blue tiles and a patterned tiled floor.
Design Supervision
During the reconstruction we made sure the interiors were built exactly to the design: finishes, furniture, textiles and lighting — with no “similar-looking” substitutions that quietly change the atmosphere.
Outcome
The hotel has been operating since 2021. In their reviews guests mention the new modern furnishings, cleanliness and cosiness.
