Semi-D is created for a mature couple who love to entertain guests in a resort setting.
Balanced elements and natural textures suggest the art of living in this comfortable, resort style ambience that can easily be called home. The double volume height is reserved for the open living area where generous amounts of natural light pour in, making it the ideal social hub. A soothing, inviting air has been created for this space, which is not only a house but welcomes the owners to their personal retreat, away from the outside world to come home to.
Origami-style, pendant lights by OVAS are carefully suspended above the sofa and really are a special feature, balancing the extra height of the room with the restful Living Area.
The rest of the rooms are well distributed, providing enough space for shared and solo activities. There are separate designated, private spaces on the top floor; an AV lounge and generous home study area.
The home’s lush surroundings were a large influence towards the calm flow through all interior spaces. They form the inspiration for the neutral material selection, for example linen curtains, light sheers, evident wood grain and woven furniture elements.
Custom designed soft furnishings follow nature’s lead, in particular the hand tufted wool rugs which carry a water movement theme in respect to the home’s environment. All finishes and tones are kept as natural as possible.
The feeling is radiant, welcoming and calm. Every surface, material and element is consciously light and contributes to the spacious feel.
