It was a science fiction film that started it all. The owner was so enthralled by the set design of Passengers that he wanted to recreate its striking look in his three-bedroom apartment; the movie is set in a spaceship featuring sculptural interior architectural elements and furnishings.

The client’s unusual brief hardly fazed Jackie Lai, founder of JIA Studios and the lead designer of this project. “The main challenge was how we could blend the different materials while maintaining a constant monochromatic tonality throughout,” says Lai. “As I could only use white hues, the cruel fact is that no flaws can be hidden. Mistakes and redos were inevitable, and I am so glad to have worked with an understanding owner who truly believes in his vision.”
