The homeowners — a Canadian couple — loved all things Asian and wanted their home (a loft condominium apartment) to have an Oriental flavour.
They approached designer Karen Tan of One-stop Concept, who combined oriental-inspired European designer pieces and actual antiques in the home. An antique sculpture of a camel watches over the airy, double-volume living space.
Orient-inspired Wishbone chairs by Danish designer Hans Wegner are matched with a lantern-like Planet pendant lamp from Italian brand Giorgetti in the loft’s dining area.
The luxurious Thalamus bed is from Giorgetti too. A neutral palette allows Karen to provide the couple with some flexibility to add colour as they grow their collection of Asian art and antiques, and at the same time keep the ambience light and airy.
