When it comes to creating a stylish and visually appealing living space, sometimes less is more. This stunning 1,500 square foot two-bedroom apartment is the perfect example of how an all-white interior can be both elegant and eclectic. After a $130,000 renovation (excluding furniture), this condominium has been transformed into a chic and inviting haven, showcasing the homeowner's unique taste and personality.
The use of natural materials in the form of the Hans Wegner Wishbone chairs and Eye Clock by George Nelson channels a Scandinavian aesthetic.
All-white interior colour scheme
One of the biggest challenges of decorating a smaller living space is avoiding a cluttered look. To combat this, the interior designer opted for an all-white color scheme, allowing the homeowner's eye-catching decor pieces to take center stage. This neutral backdrop not only creates a sense of openness but also serves as a perfect canvas for showcasing the eclectic collection of art and knick-knacks.

All-white kitchen
The kitchen is the heart of any home, and in this all-white interior, it's a true showstopper. A large kitchen cabinet was introduced to cover a structural wall and beam, while also providing ample display space for the homeowner's outlandish knick-knacks, including their beloved Fornasetti plates. By removing the wall separating the dining and kitchen area, the space feels even more open and inviting, preventing any chunky furniture from contributing to a cramped atmosphere.
The creative factor is played up by the graphic art lining the walls and studio lights, but the overall looks is softened with the generous use of textures and fabrics.
Grouping several accessories in a corner works if their patterns and shapes match - the end result is intimate, not crowded.

Eclectic collection display
The living room is a true testament to the homeowner's eclectic taste. Against the neutral backdrop of the all-white interior, Danish designer Arne Jacobsen's iconic siren red Egg Chair and British artist James Joyces' graphic posters add character and personality to the space. This careful curation of eye-catching pieces ensures that the living room remains both stylish and inviting.
The decor of the master bedroom is kept minimalist with the generous use of white as well as natural materials.

Light and bright bedroom
After a long day, there's nothing better than retreating to a serene and calming space. The master bedroom in this all-white interior is a true oasis, with light wood and white furnishings creating a soothing and tranquil atmosphere. Opposite the bed is a clean, sleek lounging area, which can easily be isolated from the sleeping quarters by a sheer curtain, allowing for ultimate privacy and relaxation.

With its eclectic mix of decor and all-white interior, this two-bedroom condo is a true masterpiece of design. From the cleverly designed kitchen to the serene master bedroom, every inch of this space has been thoughtfully curated to create a harmonious and inviting living environment.
Greenery and generous seating lend this balcony its magic - it's perfect for unwinding alone, or for entertaining friends in the evenings.
