About the Project
Contemporary Residence Interior is a home planned around a single open hall rather than a corridor. The staircase is treated as the object in that hall — dark-veined stone on a raised plinth, slim gold balusters, planting set into the plinth beneath the flight — and a fluted timber pier screens it from the dining area without closing either off. The palette is held to three things throughout: pale marble underfoot, timber on the vertical surfaces, and brass on the light fittings and trims. Colour arrives only in the soft furnishings, where sage green runs from the dining chairs to the living-room curtains and armchairs and ties the ground floor together.
Room by room
Selected Spaces
Living Area
Two curved sofas face each other across a round rug, with swivel armchairs closing the group at either end. Sage curtains hang over sheers on two window walls, and the only hard geometry in the room is the coffee table, set on a hexagonal fretwork base.
Dining Area
The dining table stands against a panelled wall carrying a single large monochrome canvas, lit by slim brass sconces rather than by anything hung above the table. A round mirror on the fluted timber wall opposite returns the light and the length of the hall to the room.
Open Hall & Transition
The hall carries the stair, the route to the dining area and the way through to the terrace at once. The stair is set on its own raised plinth so it reads as a piece of furniture in the room, and the fluted timber pier beside it divides the two halves of the floor without a door.
