Bringing together practical fittings and natural materials that have been enhanced with gold trimmings, this five room apartment is the very image of sophisticated comfort
A quick search of the term “golden moment” on the internet will bring about this description: “a special moment you will remember for a long time”. For the owners of this five-room apartment, their magical moment was encapsulated in the most literal and figurative sense upon the completion of their matrimonial home.
To flesh out their ideas for their dream abode, the newlyweds commissioned the help of ROOT Studio, a local design studio that believes in carving out meaningful and unique spaces through a narrative-driven approach of intertwining storytelling with interior design.
“From the start, the owners didn't really have a specific theme they wanted to follow. Rather, as they had known each other for a long time, they wanted to celebrate the many special memories they shared, which resulted in the concept of a ‘golden moment’”, designer-in-charge Yeo Shao Jie explained. This then informed the home’s neutral design scheme that comprises a pure white backdrop accompanied with cozy wooden tones and flecks of gold accents.
Passing the sturdy light oak door, a towering mirrored panel comes into view, which helps amplify the depth of the entryway while also reflecting light, in turn effectively casting a pleasant glow over the apartment. Further in, a difference in flooring materials segregates the living room from the rest of the communal areas – the former overlaid in wood-effect tiles while the latter in marble-lookalike tiles.
