Italian Sensibility

Designed by EDMUND NG ARCHITECTS, this three-storey penthouse gets a touch of Milanese style

WITH ITS SCENIC VIEWS AND GENEROUS SIZE, this three-storey penthouse at Leedon Residence was already an opulent abode but its owner wanted more—something original that would make it stand out from other apartments in the neighbourhood. The property developer, GuocoLand, appointed interior architect Edmund Ng and his team, who were given the freedom to conceptualise whatever they thought would bring about the grandeur of the home as a show apartment. The realised concept celebrates contemporary Italian style, as represented by Milanese architecture—a pleasing blend of the modern and avant-garde.

As the existing architecture is spacious and well-planned, the team faced few obstacles in the design process. “The apartment's generous size gave us the freedom to explore edgier design details which we thought could bring our client’s vision to life,” says Edmund Ng, founder of his namesake firm. Within two months, the team swiftly transformed the skeleton space into a welcoming home outfitted with discernment.
