A bachelor pad with a vintage and ethnic edge

The only illumination in the living room comes from a line of concealed tube lights along one wall, leaving the ceiling completely bare. Lantern on the floor, from Oddjects.

The master bedroom was turned into a walk-in wardrobe.

The end of the walk-in features a glass-walled bathroom vanity that leads to the shower and WC.

Clean white spaces grounded by a dark wood floor are embellished with vintage and ethnic flourishes. Sean designed this table with French provincial touches to fit the look. It is matched with black wrought iron chairs and a pair of modern bar stools.

The part of the kitchen sectioned off to become a service yard is prettied up with mosaic tiles and a brass lantern light.

A quaint fold-down desk slots in nicely between the bed and the wall. It also functions as a bedside table.

The bedroom is painted a strong blue, tempered by lashings of white and cream.
