House Tour: This three-bedroom apartment oozes an understated luxurious ambience
By Home & Decor Team -
As a newly-wed couple, the homeowners of this three-bedroom condominium apartment longed for a cosy home with a touch of hotel luxury, where they could settle down and start a family. They requested design firm The Orange Cube to create an inviting home with plenty of storage space, and to adhere to fengshui requirements provided by a fengshui master.
Throughout the apartment, the designers made use of a neutral colour palette comprising beige, grey and black, in line with their clients’ desired modern theme. Rose gold accents help to imbue an understated luxe look.
Separate spaces for the dry and wet kitchens meant each space was limited, so the homeowners decided to convert them into a full wet kitchen leading from the foyer to the dining area. To get rid of odd corners and maximise storage space per the clients’ request, the designers chose to include built-in appliances, such as the oven and wine chiller.
As for the unused space by several bay windows in the bedrooms, the designers converted those areas into comfortable settee spots with customised storage.
In contrast to the master bedroom, dark grey tiles were used throughout the bathroom. Potted plants were added to the bathroom for a touch of nature, to lend a resort-like ambience.
The homeowners felt that its hinged swing door was cumbersome, so the designers shifted the bathroom entrance slightly to accommodate a sliding door – a much sleeker option.
