A neutral coloured interior brought to life with bright hues, strategic lighting, and natural accents.
In a home coloured in the palette of our time, the JCS Design Project introduces warming dashes of orange for levity, alongside thoughtfully placed lighting fixtures to provide layers of intangible elegance. An introduction for the decorative theme is made at the front of the home, where the entrance’s grand double doors open out to a wide foyer.
As a preview of the décor to follow, the entryway presents a refined tribute to nature – with a potted orchid held aloft against a backdrop of wood grains and framed in yellow light. In an exercise of bold contrast against the lightness and natural inspiration of the decorative altar, the adjacent window hosts a set of horizontal blinds in dark grey, while the other side is occupied by a generous mirrored panel stretching from the plaster ceiling to the cream floor tiles.
Inviting Light: The thoughtfully placed lighting fixtures at the foyer and along the entertainment wall draw the naïve eye into the enticing embrace of the seating lounge.
From the entryway, the seating lounge presents an inviting scene set against a sunlit backdrop. A generous carpet in cream merges with the floor tiles, while the entertainment wall presents a long wooden console lit by streaks of yellow light – with the resulting glow apparently designed to pull the eye towards a pair of matching leather armchairs at the far end of the area.
Proportionate Grandeur: With the ample air volume provided by the extra-high ceiling, the dining space is afforded the room to accommodate a generous table beneath a sizable and dramatic lighting fixture -without either element detracting from the deliberate simplicity of the décor.
Stepping beyond the wall of the foyer presents an axis of symmetry governing the length of the open layout – represented by panels of white marble framing the television in the seating lounge and forming the dividing wall between the bar and the kitchen.
The white marble panels situated at the two ends of the open layout are echoed in the dining surface – with a white slab held up by converging wooden legs of minimalist design. The dining table is positioned directly beneath a double-height ceiling, taking advantage of the extra air volume provided to make one of the largest pieces of furniture less intrusive against the pale floor.
Marbled Backdrops: The functional areas of the open layout are backed by generous expanses of white marble and framed in enthralling yellow light, lending the interior a palpable air of luxury.
The prevailing decorative elements are cohesively applied through the rest of the home – the cooking space at the far end of the open layout is rendered in immaculate white, with grey veins in the marble backsplash, cream floor tiles, and yellow lighting providing subtle forms of contrast against the all-white cabinetry.
The private spaces on the upper floor of this home feature a similar colour palette, with a background of pale wood, light grey, and white, retained and made livelier with the addition of blue fabrics and richly-stained wood floors.
Designed Variety: With the prevailing decorative scheme retained on the upper floor, some novel visual sensations are presented in the form of intriguing lighting fixtures.
Chromatic Echoes: Alternate shades of the prevailing colour scheme are appropriated to add layers of complexity to the space, while bringing attention to the leather bench situated at the foot of the bed and the rich blue fabric headboard.
Airy Ambiance: While the same colour scheme is applied to bold effect in the other bedrooms, this particular bedroom relies on the lighter side of the neutral palette to at once render the space cohesively and differentiate it from the other chambers.
