A Modern Asian Apartment With An Artistic Soul

Combining modern elements with a nature-inspired palette, this apartment showcases the family’s art collection in a tranquil and tasteful setting. It is often said that art brings out the soul of a home—that much is true, particularly for a family of avid art collectors. The owners’ artistic flair can clearly be felt in this stylish apartment, which pairs works by Asian artists with a tasteful array of Italian-made furniture and art objects. Home to a family of four, the 2,900sqft apartment has four bedrooms which had to be spatially optimised to host the owners’ frequent gatherings. The firm’s meticulous attention to detail ensured that every design element adds to the cohesive look of the interior. Guests entering the home are first greeted by a spacious foyer. At the entry area, an abstract artwork is the focal point of the space. It’s paired with a Daum Macaw crystal sculpture in similar tones, next to a Flos table lamp that echoes the geometric design of the Minotti console. We built wood wall panels upon which art can be installed. Thoughtful gestures like these make room for the couple’s growing art collection and provide more ways for the owners to personalise their home. The living room embraces a calming, nature-inspired theme. A crystal chandelier by Baccarat hangs from the cove ceiling, which accentuates the height of the room. Adding to its cosy ambience are leather seats and marble tables by Giorgetti; decorative accessories by Hermès create visual interest. A Minotti sideboard divides the room into two sections, separating the dining zone from the living area. Light beige curtains soften the interior and allow natural light to enter the space. In a cosy alcove, an armchair is complemented by a Minotti console and scented candles. The dining area is distinguished by a dome ceiling. Featuring a crystal Baccarat chandelier as well as a set of dining table and chairs by Giorgetti, this space is complemented by a bespoke feature wall, which a Chinese painting is illuminated. The result is a refined interior that makes room for contemplation and art appreciation.
