Reimagining a six-bedroom residence at Tomlinson Heights as a timeless home with elevated touches and considerations for wellness and relaxation—this formed the basis of the design brief handed to Miaja Design Group by the homeowners. Having seen the firm’s portfolio, the clients were drawn to its design approach and the overall mood and feel of its residential projects, which was precisely what they wanted to express in their new home. The result is an elegant rendition of what ensues when purpose meets aesthetics: a sophisticated and inviting home with a sense of wellness at its heart.
“I believe they wanted the ‘Miaja style’ right from the beginning: comfort, elegance, and an atmosphere that is refined, yet not contrived,” says company founder and lead designer Isabelle Miaja of her clients’ key considerations. “Their previous home was a beautiful landed house that suited their lifestyle at that moment in time. They wanted a stylish new place in which they could worry less about children running around, where the beautiful views of the city were left unobstructed, the breezes flowed freely, and each object was purposely chosen so as to not crowd the spaces.”
A PERFECT SHELL
Miaja describes Tomlinson Heights as a well-laid-out building that takes full advantage of its sweeping views, natural light, and airflow. For this reason, the designer did not have to alter the apartment’s layout, focusing instead on augmenting the sense of comfort and elegance already afforded by the architectural shell. She also spent much time with the client discussing ways to achieve the perfect balance between beauty and functionality.
