atmosphere. To enhance the
effect, the designer created
a 5m-tall onyx stone feature
wall illuminated with LED
backlights to give an ethereal
vibe to the space. Natural stone
is also used in furnishings that
include a marble dining table
and marble kitchen counter,
both from Hafary.
While the home is
predominantly in white, the
bathrooms showcase a little
more colour and adventure.
As the home comes with
many bathrooms – five, to be
exact – the owners decided
that each would have its own
theme. From a brick feature
wall in one to a striking black-
and-gold theme featuring
a granite slab by Bellus in
another, the bathrooms
brim with character.
Wanting to give the
young ones in the family a
designated space to play, they
got Zeng Bin to design a cosy
playhouse where the children
can amuse themselves and
display their toys. Platform
flooring that doubles as storage
compartments is a genius way
to hide clutter and maintain a
tidy space.
The renovation, excluding
furnishings, cost $200,000, of
which the bulk was spent on
extensive tiling works.
