Creative credo:‘Taking in the raw data via a kind of meditation, I try to tune in to the correct understanding of the challenges and personality of the customer. The fate of the project largely depends on this. Ideas emerge as the result of observation of the space and the desire to make it awaken new images in the subconscious. The essence of any creative work is seeking out something. The result serves as a basis for the next step. The purpose of the journey is its continuation.’

Dmitry Bykov was born in Moscow and graduated from the Moscow Institute of Architecture in 1987. He then worked at the Sergey Kiselyev and Partners architectural practice until 1993. In the same year, he founded the DIA ar-chitectural studio. All his projects are characterised by clean lines, strict taste and a balance of proportions. Bykov only takes private orders and does not build anything large in the city as a matter of principle.

Modern design trends from MosBuild 2013


DESIGN l TRENDS

Interior design and the fashion industry run paral-lel to each other. All the latest fashion products are immediately extended into the field of decoration. It is no coincidence that many fashion designers, after creating a clothing and accessories collection, often produce their own collections of fabrics, wallpaper, tiles, furniture and interior items. Those who follow fashion and the latest products can see which season-al trends, fashionable colours and textures, moods and accents will appear in interior design.

Black and white graphics. This trend has already become a classic and will probably never go out of fashion. In fact, not a season goes by without a black and white colour range. Anyway, both col-ours are always present in new collections by com-panies and designers. Black and white graphics are always stylish and elegant.

A feature of the AGG-03 halo generator is the presence of a bactericidal air purification system, which is supplied for ionised aerosol. In this way, the maximum therapeutic effect is achieved by immersion in the aero dispersed environment saturated with dry, highly dispersed ionised aerosol of sodium, with a stable low humidity and a constant comfortable temperature from +22 to +24 degrees celsius.
