Transparent glass embedded in sleek wooden frame structures the three faces of the room to overlook a vast arena of the terrace space that surround it.

Furthermore, the nook that is so alluring about the space is the floor bedding with wittingly chosen decors. It gives the space a warm and cozy experience.

The dining area is simply designed to behold a circular table positioned beside a beautiful window. Four modernly designed contented chairs with plush blue fabric choir along with the surroundings. One wouldn’t fail to notice the raw wooden wall display customized to act as the epitome of the niche. It deliberates a unique kind of mildness and magic into this space. The kitchen likewise uses the gentle shades of whites and blues to allure a tranquilizing sensation.
The bedroom is a sober-looking space minimally designed in solid earthy wood enriched with the attention given to the details. The walls are left bare with an ivory buttoned bed back. The pastel ivory curtains are chosen to merge well with the surroundings enhancing the appearance of the wood.
This penthouse attains its timelessness with the minimally and adequately designed interiors. It raises the benchmark in effortlessly weaving the interiors with the exteriors.
