13 JAN 25
This stunning apartment unit is a luxurious 2-bedroom residence spanning approximately 450 sq. ft., situated in The Coastal Line Phase 2 of Yau Tong. The development comprises 3 magnificent towers that exude elegance and modernity, scheduled for completion in 2025, and poised to their mark on the skyline with a commanding presence.
Our client for this project is a young veterinarian from Australia. Possessing a keen eye for detail and a strong desire to infuse her unique style into every corner of her very first home. Sufficient early planning not only allows for timely execution of interior design but also provides a more personalized design for the unit. Hei Design is honoured to have been appointed at this early stage to meticulously craft the best design concept plan for our valued client.
In grasping the essence of our client's desires for a space enveloped in the soft glow of soothing hues, allowing for a leisurely enjoyment of the sea views at home, while also seeking a combination of functionality, simplicity, and aesthetics throughout the entire residence. Therefore, we intentionally focus on a fresh and comfortable creamy tone as the main theme, complemented by minimalistic design to evoke a serene and gentle feeling. Every element within the space is carefully chosen to depict a refined and elegant atmosphere through the warm tones and clean lines.
The original layout of the unit already met the basic needs of our client’s daily lives, so we decided to keep the existing partitions and avoid unnecessary major changes. However, to further enhance the sense of space and visual flow, we had a clever idea for the living room – we replaced the partition wall with a stylish frame glass wall. This strategic modification not only maintains the functionality of dividing the area but also allows natural light to illuminate the living and dining area. The expansive sea view greatly enhances the living experience, allowing our clients to enjoy a sense of boundless elegance and tranquillity within the comfort of their own home.
The client is usually busy with work, so the primary design requirement is to have a home that exudes a sense of tranquillity and comfort, allowing her to rest well after a hectic day. Our designer’s chosen creamy colour palette is not just for aesthetic consideration, but serves to relax the visual senses, creating a delicate and serene environment where the client can find her own exclusive tranquil seas.
The ceilings and various pieces of furniture such as the TV cabinet, coffee table and sofa are all adorned with simple lines and patterns to create a subtle sense of elegance, allowing each item to present its essence while harmoniously complementing the fresh creamy tones. This design approach fosters a refined visual enjoyment that transcends the ordinary and exudes a sense of sophistication.
Within the realm of creamy hues, the interplay of light and shadow takes on a crucial role in cultivating an atmosphere of warmth and tranquillity. A thoughtfully arranged smart LED strip lights system along the ceiling acts as an artistic complement to the creamy colour palette, infusing the living room with a subtle radiance reminiscent of the soothing glow of a sunrise or sunset. This integrated lighting solution introduces a touch of modern sophistication to the space.
The dining room is furnished with a rugged and primitive dining table, accompanied by four stylish and soft-textured fabric chairs. This combination triggers an alternating sense of artistic beauty and materiality, while allowing for the enjoyment of taste, sight, and touch, thereby elevating the dining experience.
Next to this welcoming dining room, the open kitchen seamlessly merges, creating a harmonious union. Draped in sumptuous marble panels, the kitchen emanates an air of luxury. The streamlined design not only enhances the visual charm of the open kitchen but also guarantees effortless upkeep, embodying an ideal balance of elegance and practicality.
The guest room of the unit has been transformed into an elegant study room. The designer removed the dividing wall and replaced it with a bronze-framed glass wall, dividing the study area while adding a higher level of beauty. The small modification of the glass wall became the key to creating a sense of transparency and refinement. Natural light pours in from the window, creating a high level of transparency that allows light to freely flow from the study room to the dining room and living room, resulting in an extended effect that enhances the soft and comfortable atmosphere of the dining room and the entire residence exponentially.
The master bedroom also features the serene elegance and creamy colour scheme, continuing the relaxed style of the home and creating a spacious and open bedroom. In terms of design, the designer incorporated a checkered headboard. The soft headboard, combined with wooden walls, adds a touch of simplicity and a soothing warm atmosphere to the bedroom, allowing one to relax and unwind at any time.
The cotton candy-shaped light fixtures paired with natural light create a warm and cozy atmosphere while also looking visually pleasing. The bedroom's simple yet custom-made wardrobe, using clean lines, gentle colour tones, and simple textures, makes the room appear organized and well put-together. Altogether, this creates a dreamy and relaxing space, perfect for unwinding and getting some rest.
