A carefully curated combination of luxurious finishings and contemporary flair transforms this three-bedroom apartment into a spacious and inviting abode

Understated Luxury

For people who travel often, hotels are synonymous with feeling at home. And creating an abode that mimics hotel interiors was exactly what this family of four had in mind for their home renovation project. Working with Jonathan Kuok of local interior design firm Space Atelier, this apartment features complementary finishes and materials that draw influence from what the homeowners have grown accustomed to over the years.

1 OVERALL

 To transform this three-bedroom home into a sophisticated and elegant abode that exudes a modern luxurious look, clean lines, glossy surfaces and plush furniture pieces were used. In addition to the pre-existing ceiling lights, the designer embedded warm cove lighting within the false ceiling to allow the homeowners to create a cosy ambience in the space when the ceiling lights are switched off.
