Anastasia Makeeva has always been the most feminine. It is not surprising that she tried to make her apartment look like the home of a fairy-tale princess. The actress invited "Cleo" to visit and showed her favorite room - the bedroom …

Everything, from the design of complex composite structures of the ceiling and walls to the smallest details of the interior, Anastasia thought out herself.

- I thought about how the room should look for a very long time and did not start repairs until I had a complete picture. My husband, composer Gleb Matveychuk, went on tour to the United States, and when he returned, he found a completely renovated bedroom. It was a surprise for his return. Since we have no children, and we live together, I could not restrain my impulses and fantasies. The whole apartment and, of course, the bedroom was created as a cozy nest for lovers.

One of the highlights of the bedroom interior is the 300-liter aquarium.

- The aquarium is through, built into the wall. On one side of the wall there is a bedroom, on the other - a bathroom. In the bathroom, he is a living picture. When I take a shower in the evening, my beloved is basking in bed and watching me.

The aquarium is decorated like the bottom of the ocean. The actress really wanted to have a complete feeling that sea fish are swimming there.

- I love the cartoon about "Nemo", clown fish and other bright tropical fish. A real saltwater aquarium requires special care. And it is very expensive. This one is about six thousand dollars, and the sea one is three to four times more expensive. But I dream about him. When we move to a more spacious apartment, I will make a full-wall aquarium. It seems to me that this is an integral part of the interior. Observing fish perfectly relieves stress, calms down. It's so nice to look at colorful fish and think about your own.

All the furniture in the bedroom is forged.

- I have been fascinated for a long time by the effect that wrought-iron furniture creates. It seems as if it is floating in the air. In one movie I saw an amazing bed and wanted exactly the same one. But when I came to the salon, this was not. All the lattices on the beds were oversaturated with grapes, roses, flowers. And I wanted a more sophisticated version. Then I took a screenshot (still from the film), printed it out and took it to the workshop, where the master made the exact same to order.

The lighting solution is impressive. The ceiling has a built-in pale pink illumination. You can direct a beam of light onto a shiny disco ball, and glare will flash across the ceiling. The chandelier is black.

- I really wanted an extravagant black chandelier and that there were certainly butterflies, I just adore them, - Makeeva continues. - If you noticed, they are all over the bedroom.

Nastya spent a long time choosing the design of the curtains and finally settled on black-honey curtains with an interesting print. "It gave the curtains a noble look."

There are many plants in the actress's bedroom. She believes that in the city it is impossible without them.

- Although I live at the junction of two beautiful parks, there is still not enough air. Flowers cheer me up. You are now so bad that there are no bouquets, and usually after the performance three or four bouquets are in vases.

- In the evening, candles are always burning in the house, I like live fire, - says Anastasia, - But these three, with bows, I never lit - it's a pity. They gave them to us for a wedding and said: "You will light one when the boy is born, the second when the girl appears, and the third for the silver wedding."

For all sorts of pleasant trifles and trinkets, the actress came up with a kind of rack with steps under the TV. Each piece of furniture has its own interesting history.

- This cat, sitting on the aquarium, was presented to me by a vocal teacher, we put her in such a way that it seemed that she was trying to catch a fish. And the other cat - a golden one - I impudently begged from the producers of the TV series "Novosti" STS, where I am filming. She was one of the interior details on the set. This bunny doll was presented to me by my failed mother-in-law. Before Gleb I met a young man, but it didn't work out. Two figurines in evening dresses - ring holders. I bought one in Las Vegas, and a friend gave me the second in Moscow. And the bamboo in the vase is already ten years old. It is from a bouquet that Karen Shakhnazarov gave me when I starred in his film. This was my first film work. I really love memorabilia. I keep small notes from my husband, gifts from fans. But in order not to litter the apartment, I take most of my things to the dacha.

- And this gramophone? Does he have a story?

- He has a very interesting story. Together with the film crew of director Karen Shakhnazarov, I was in India in the city of Trivandrum. In one of the shops I saw a gramophone, I liked it so much that I decided to buy it. We flew by plane first to Mumbai, then to Delhi, therefore already to Moscow. At every airport I was slowed down, they asked me about a purchase for a long time, which, of course, slowed down the whole line. In the end, Shakhnazarov could not stand it. “Nastya, I will pay you triple the price for him if you just leave him now,” he said. Tears flowed into my eyes, this was the last airport before Moscow. Is it about money? And Karen Georgievich took pity.

The gramophone fits perfectly into the interior - now it stands on a wrought-iron pedestal, under which lies the spouse's sound console.

Nastya really loves her room: she put so much effort into it, there are so many things dear to her heart. We could have talked longer. For example, about how she painted black flowers on the wallpaper with gold paint, because it seemed to her that there was too much black in the room. Or how her husband, knowing her love for Swarovski crystals, invariably gives her frames, jewelry and even lamps with them. Or about transparent glass tables, under which there are many bright trinkets (the husband has her own set, she has her own). But, unfortunately, time does not stand still, and it's time to say goodbye.

- Come again, - Anastasia smiles at the door.
