House Tour: This home pays tribute to the 50s and 60s

Share this article

Designers from MOMO and Partners helped this home owner bring the charm of the 50s and 60s into this otherwise contemporary flat.

 

The minimalist master bedroom gets a touch of nostalgia with old-fashioned accents such as a recycled metal grille gate and lace drapes, which also serve as a screen for the walk-in wardrobe.

 

To bring a sense of spaciousness to the narrow kitchen, the designers and homeowner kept the space very simple. The wall of retro glass blocks and globe-shaped lamps bring a touch of nostalgia to the long room.

 

A vintage cabinet takes pride of place beside high-tech computer gadgets in the study.

 

By replacing some of the white ceramic tiles with black-and-white mosaics and floral wallpaper, then finishing it off with a miniature crystal chandelier, the humble kitchen toilet takes on a powder room quality.

 

Furniture pieces from different eras can complement one another. Here, an avant-garde table-cum-TV console and a sleek acrylic coffee table sit harmoniously with two retro armchairs.
