Focusing on one chic apartment design, from NG Studio Interior Design, let's look at how this beautiful home explores a sophisticated yet crisp palette, with sharp yet elegant fixtures and fittings that would suit a male or female inhabitant equally.
Shades of beige and brown are layered for a sumptuous look, and are freshened and sharpened by crisp white elements.
Sleek built-in storage units keep the home clutter free and clean. The handle-free doors blend in with the wall that has been cleverly clad in the same softly grained material. A low white bench provides a subtle seating area for putting on shoes in the generous square hallway, and a solitary piece of uncomplicated artwork provides a simple focal point.
Matching table lamps provide a quiet symmetry in the living room, where a large area rug brightens the dark stained wood floor.
The compact kitchen has an edge-to-edge run of smooth fronted units, in a soft taupe shade that welcomes a little warmth without further closing in modest dimensions. The wall cabinets reach all the way up to the ceiling to maximise storage space, despite the horizontal limits. A neat sliding panel behind the kitchen sink conceals more storage cubbies, where every day items that are needed close at hand can be hidden away in an instant.
Two pendant light shades over the dining table echo the twin table lamps in the lounge.
In a lush green garden, outdoor lounge furniture provides a chic place to relax under the sun, or take a breath of fresh air under the shade of an elegant parasol.
A large bedroom provides an opportunity to incorporate another handy lounge/reading area.
Combined twin basins over an elongated elegant vanity unit creates a luxury bathroom look, and a bespoke shower enclosure completes the plush fitted look.
