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.
