Curved decor elements and a restrained color palette give these three spacious modern apartments a look of high-end luxe. Curved sofas, rounded accent furniture, smoothed corners, and architectural archways construct a calm and comforting aesthetic that softens the edges of everyday life. Whilst color palettes are discreet and largely neutral, areas of high contrast create a cool contemporary allure. Muted color accents add interest to key areas without overwhelming the overall sense of peace and tranquility that makes this trio of interiors so appealing. Natural wood floors and wall paneling instills visual warmth, whilst modern lighting installations provide a welcoming, cozy glow.
On the Mornington Peninsula of Australia, our first featured apartment sets luxurious comfort alongside a curved panorama of stunning ocean views.
