Selection of chic yet comfortable sofa in a neutral tone provides cozy seating, while accent chairs in similar tones add a playful touch and maximizes the seating capacity.
One of the long wall in living room is finished in ash wood veneer with unique grey tone polish. The wall conceals the main door and holds the TV.

A burnt orange upholstered headboard and bedding in varying shades of grey create a serene ambience. Full height wardrobes in light grey matt PU finish covers the walls on both sides of the bed offering ample storage but without over powering the space.
Second bedroom serves as a guest room, concept revolves around creating a warm, inviting and serene space where guests can relax and unwind. It combines elements of comfort, functionality, and aesthetics to ensure a memorable and comfortable stay for visitors.
