The client brief was as coherent as they come . The home needed to reflect the aura of the family and hold up a mirror to their way of being with sincerity . Timeless Mid-Century Modern sensibilities cross paths with the neoteric to strike an equilibrium . Understated and rooted in its demeanour , the family and their amicable mien tugged at the strings of inspiration for the Principal Designers .
The residence revels in a mystery , beckoning forth myriad possibilities in which the home ’ s persona could
be interpreted . The open floor plan communal nucleus of the home reigns the heart of the blueprint with sunlight-laden nooks . An inherent warmth and a deliberate dose of hues guide the senses through the medley of spaces . The public spaces of the home are in an incessant conversation while the private sections enjoy seclusion , tying in with the communal zones with gravitas .
The absence of a defined foyer in the preambulatory area of the home was addressed with a wood and cane screen cum console that rests upon sleek black-metal members ; this installation renders the space with privacy while adeptly sectioning the former . A gridded matrix of rectilinear mouldings bridges across the ceiling ’ s canvas and blankets the volume overhead initiating a sense of visual dynamism . An ornate candelabra-style chandelier by The Hesperus cascades over the median of the living and dining areas , nodding to the layered and elevated aesthetic of the space .
