Living area
Exuding a decidedly laidback atmosphere with its light tones and abundant daylight, the living area is one of the prime areas to take in riveting views of the city.
Practicality does not always equate to a predictable floor plan or even cookie-cutter material pairings. At least not to Bean Buro, the design team commissioned to work on a complete overhaul of this apartment situated in Mid-Levels, Hong Kong. Located in an affluent and hilly district receiving breathtaking views of the city, this sumptuously appointed dwelling of almost 2,000sq ft is home to a married couple, their two children, and a pet bulldog.
During the design conceptualization stage, the homeowners were expecting their second child. And like most urban professionals in bustling Hong Kong, the couple leads a hectic lifestyle juggling work, play, and family. It was clear to co-founding Design Directors Kenny Kinugasa-Tsui and Lorène Faure that the homeowners needed flexibility in this home to strike a fine balance between their professional and personal lives.
Interestingly, the design team derived inspiration from the theatre to work out a design brief that caters to the family’s lifestyle needs. It actually stems from the female homeowner’s preference to unwind at home and the team’s idea to “open different portals to different worlds, akin to a theatre set,” all in the comfort of home.
