This conceptual apartment, by Anna Marinenko, is positively bursting with bright décor decisions in the choice of paint, furniture, and accessories, but the vivacious palette finds success in this small space by limiting the hues, combining only two colors amidst clean white and fleeting bases of black and grey.
