It embraces simplicity with a muted colour palette of soft whites and gentle greys with highlights of wooden finishes introducing warmth into the space complemented by the natural light from the double-height window that fills the room. The furnishings are unpretentious, characterised by minimalist designs and clean lines, creating a serene and inviting ambience.
Situated beneath the staircase soffit, a sleek piano resides in a minimalist setting. Plush seating and a curated collection of books and artefacts form an inviting reading nook, illuminated by soft, diffused lighting, offering a tranquil retreat.
A narrow datum gracefully connects various parts of the house, with some sense of privacy being introduced artisanally with a seamless ledge wall with captivating MS details which separate the spaces.
