Horace Suite is one of the best demonstrations on how an apartment of 70’s be transformed to a contemporary single suite with multiple functions.

Living here in Happy Valley, our client who’s a single noble, would like to create an unusual gathering place for friends with stunning view, while at the same time giving herself a joyful yet functional private suite.

The suite was designed in simple black & white, enhanced with natural wood ,marble and a handcrafted cement wall, to create not just a place of chic but also brings brightness and comfort.

Benefit from the 70’s HK building structure, the 45 sqm.flat allows a full retrofit on layout, releasing every single space to fit in varies functions.
By swapping kitchen,bathroom and bedroom positions, a spacious queen-sized bedroom with full-wall wardrobe is attained at the most private corner of the suite.Grabbing almost all windows of the flat to surround the open kitchen,plenty of unlight penetrates the entire living & dining space.Sitting along the white marble breakfast island,gangs could enjoy great supper looking at the marvelous Horserace view through the big, black framed windows.

The last but most interesting area – living room, consists of pure white L-shaped full wall storage and a natural concrete wall,hiding two sets of folding panels and a working desk behind the cabinet doors,making it easily being transformed from a spacious living area to a semi-private working place,or even an extra private bedroom!
To create not just a place of chic but also brings brightness and comfort, our team made use of black & white contrast, enhanced by natural elements such as wood and marble, and also handcrafted concrete.

Built-in cabinets are designed in the cleanest way without ornaments to form walls, while pop out black lining elements such as bi-fold panels.
Concrete wall gone through the opposite wall, concealing the bedroom door, extends to the bathroom wall, which visually enlarge the living area connecting the kitchen space.

Thick Marble-top was introduced along the wooden kitchen cabinets and islands, with an addition of two Tom Dixon Beat Series Pendants , creates this suite a focal feature to recognize when ones come in.

Green subway tiles with terrazzo base are used inside bathroom to bring more sense of chic on top of the overall modern mood.
Cleanness continues inside the bedroom with a warm grey and white tone, enhanced with green linen and wood backings to form a warm private space for rest.

The built out makes us the second challenge of this project—our layout proposal requires entire relocations of all systems – E&M, Town Gas supply, Water supply, Sewage. We had to consult every single parties to come up with a solution before fi-tout commencement. With a series of cross-checking of each other’s proposal, we finally comes up with a feasible plan to move on, relocating main system & meters to the corner of the kitchen and release their original space to fit our other designs.
