To address the modest ceiling height , Thorp strategically used linear patterns to visually elongate the space , creating a sense of verticality . Another ingenious solution was the raised area for the dining table in the living room , which not only provided separation from the sofa , but also offered unobstructed views , breaking up the large open-plan space without compromising on the cohesive aesthetic . This thoughtful design approach ensured that every corner of the expansive apartment was utilised effectively , creating functional yet beautiful spaces .
BESPOKE FURNISHINGS
The furnishings in the apartment were predominantly bespoke , tailored to suit the unique needs and preferences of the owners . Thorp collaborated with a local company to craft custom pieces such as headboards and joinery , ensuring that each element fit perfectly within the overall design scheme . Other items were sourced from England , adding distinctive character to the apartment ’ s décor .
Key pieces included bespoke rugs that complemented the interior scheme , dining chairs from Klassic , and paper hanging lights from The New Craftsmen . The bubble pendant lights from Giopato and Coombes added a whimsical yet sophisticated touch to the spaces . Each piece was carefully selected or designed to enhance the tranquil and elegant ambiance of the apartment .
