About Classic Timeless Bachelor Pad Luxury Residential
Classic Timeless Bachelor Pad is a residential interior design for a 137 square meter apartment in Taiwan, completed in 2019. The layout includes two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, a living room, a transformable study, a dining room, an open kitchen and a balcony. The interior uses leather, wool plaid, mahogany and dark burl wood for a masculine character. A herringbone tile floor in dark wood grain runs through the living room, study and dining room. Crown molding and a mantelpiece surround for the television add warmth. Equestrian and yachting photography completes the elegant scheme.

Obtaining timeless classic pieces and symbols representing the technicality and purity of yachting, exclusivity of gentlemen’s sports, and equestrian traditions was also a challenge.

- Operation Flow
- “What I do is about living. It's about living the best life you can and enjoying the fullness of the life around you- from what you wear, to the way you live, to the way you love.” By Ralph Lauren.
Opening on a black-framed white horse, the tone for the space is elegance light gray with dark wood. The living room features a dark wood-grained herringbone tile floor that continues through the study and the dining room. Crown molding states elegance, while clean modern lines and a central island in the kitchen reflect simplicity yet functionality. The master suite flips the scheme with bold dark wood paneled walls and molding with light carpet and a splash of royal blue over the bed. - Research
- The main objective of fulfilling the client’s dream of the perfect Ralph Lauren inspired home required eight months of research and design to achieve success. Selection of materials, color schemes, trim, and sourcing specific furnishings was a joint effort. These pieces then drove fabric and finishes selection to complete the harmony.
- Inspiration
- With roots in high-end traditional American design, featuring timeless, high quality materials exuding elegance and aristocracy, but also reflecting impeccable taste. Having lived and studied for many years in the US, the client’s tastes resonant with the design concepts and aesthetics of Ralph Lauren. Reflecting these ideals, the overall design of the home centers around features of an elegant lifestyle: equestrian and yachting photography and collectables.
