The homeowners of this three-bedroom condominium apartment in Sunset Way are a couple in their mid-30s who had very different design directions. The challenge for Terence Neo (design director of 82) and his team was to find common ground that the couple could agree on. They eventually decided on a minimalist Scandinavian style.
The homeownersʼ toy collection takes pride of place at the entrance foyer, where the designer has created a built-in display comprising wooden niches set within a white wall of storage cabinets. These create a focal point against the white canvas, welcoming visitors into the home.
To brighten up the interiors and make the home appear more spacious, Terence used a light palette characteristic of a Scandi style, while taking advantage of the natural light penetrating the apartment interiors. The homeowners also wanted to enlarge the master bathroom and reconfigure the kitchen and living room.
Like the rest of the home, the living room is predominantly white with brown accents contributed by the sofa and coffee table from Kuhl Home. One wall in the dining area has been cladded with grey concrete-look tiles to provide a spot of contrast and to better define the seamless space.
One of the highlights of the open- concept kitchen is the Moroccan floor tiling that stands out against the white compressed marble flooring in the living and dining rooms. The wall tiles and kitchen cabinets are all white, but Terence skilfully integrated touches of wood with the open wall shelves.
