Design Details
- Unique Properties
- A cozy minimalist Scandinavian-inspired theme is prevalent throughout this condo, elegantly meeting the request of the owners - a couple with young children, for a bright and spacious home that expresses who they are and what they love. While the aesthetic appears to be simple, the designers were meticulous about getting the neutral palette of light tones and soft furnishing in harmony with one another. The high attention to detail proved to be advantageous as what transpired was a collection of fine features against a serene and pleasant backdrop.
- Inspiration
- The main design style is cozy minimalist Scandinavian, while the aesthetic appears to be simple, the designers were meticulous about getting the neutral palette of light tones and soft furnishing in harmony with one another. The high attention to detail proved to be advantageous as what transpired was a collection of fine features against a serene and pleasant backdrop.
- Challenge
- The challenging part of the house is demolished works of the highrise building. The mirrored issues being considered is the column location. Hacking off laundry area wall next to the kitchen to make it bigger. The designer converts the kitchen to a multifunctional use area which allows the family can have a lot of activity in the kitchen even with the kid’s so there’s a lot of interaction space, human, function & memory.
- Realization and Technology
- Herringbone flooring further enhances the minimalist appearance, giving the pared-down theme a touch of personality. In the living room, white decorative panels and full-height storage cabinets with the same panelled effect grace the main walls. Instead of placing the TV on an elaborate feature wall, the flat screen is set right above the white wall panels for a streamlined look. Other media equipment is neatly stored inside the standalone cabinet. Behind the sofa, the full-height storage cabinet incorporates a bench seating area for the dining space which features a wood dining set that comes with two chairs.
- Operation and Interaction
- Throughout the 2-bedroom home, loose furniture pieces keep the lightweight Scandinavian concept consistent. The designers also went for an asymmetrical approach to infuse a carefree attribute to the space. For example, in the living room, a grey sofa with a single planter box placed casually next to it as well as the round-shaped rug and coffee table create a versatile composition of form, function and textures to support the interior style.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in November 2018 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and finished in July 2019.
- Specifications
- This residence is designed with a layout space of 118 square meters of built-up area. This condominium has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with a balcony that allows its inhabitants to enjoy the beautiful view and landscape. At the heart of it, all is a spacious central valley that allows you to explore the best of nature against the backdrop of a pristine forest reserve. Here, inspiration flows from each sight and sound, and possibilities for fun lie behind every corner.
