Mixing up the industrial style with barn-doors, rustic-chic looks and other styles might sound disastrous on paper, but in reality, the clash of styles have created a modern, eclectic look for this apartment. Designed by interior designer Museum, this home is a bevy of unique style-elements.

The living room immediately sets the tone with its modern eclectic vibe. Depth is added by using a black grill that highlights the soaring ceiling height while concealing functional elements like the projection screen and wiring. This eclectic interior welcomes you with an intriguing mix of textures and styles.

The original false ceiling was removed to increase the height of the common areas, leaving a drop around the ceiling border to hide utilities such as the air-conditioning unit.

Modern eclectic interior

The kitchen is undoubtedly the brightest and most eye-catching space, epitomizing the home's modern eclectic aesthetic. Vibrant red barn doors conceal the wet kitchen and toilet, while black and white flooring lends a retro flair. Industrial-style chairs and lamps create a cool contrast against the sleek, contemporary cabinetry. A rustic, reclaimed wood cabinet completes the curated eclectic interior by housing treasured cookbooks.

Maximizing wardrobe space

This curated mix is harmoniously united under a monochromatic color palette.
