Warmth exudes from these three modern home interiors, through rich brown and grey colour palettes, natural wood tone and soft lighting. Such a palette feels like a hug to come home to, or an inviting blanket to snuggle up in. However, there is nothing remotely fluffy about these homes. These are spaces that are shaped by contemporary furniture choices, ultra stylish accessories, cutting edge appliances and superb lighting designs. These are abodes for the discerning homeowner who has impeccable taste and a budget to complement it. Designer pieces and collectable art dot these warming scenes of comforting sanctuary, creating reposeful balance between a passion for the creative and a need for sanctum.
