Russian architect Peter Kostelov has slotted a timber structure into a two-storey apartment in Moscow to create two extra floors.

The former top level of the apartment had ceiling heights of up to 8 metres, where the architect has inserted a mezzanine and new upper storey.

Openings in the walls of the wooden structure allow views between rooms on different levels, as does a cutaway in the ceiling of the middle floor.

Bespoke angled lamps hang from the ceilings of the billiard room and dining room on this level, while specially designed furniture fills rooms throughout the apartment.

Marbled tiles line the floor, walls and surfaces of the kitchen, which opens out to a second dining room on the lower floor.

On the top floor, a semi-circular window stretches across the walls of a master bedroom and study.
