The 6200 sq. ft penthouse with three sides open, was a design opportunity to bring in natural light to all liveable spaces and resulting Living room with a neutral background palette, looks stunning in the flooding sunlight through the exterior glass walls. This double heighted space is adorned with various furniture pieces like russet tan leather sofa accompanied by two lounge saddle tan leather chairs, a chic chandelier, a TV unit beneath the stairs, giving the space a wholesome feel.
