Highlights of the project:

Step into a world of luxury and comfort in this seaside unit in Ma On Shan, Hong Kong. The designer has created an environment that is both aesthetically impressive and inviting, with mixtures of different textured materials used to create a rich and comforting ambiance. The soft, smooth shades of light colors complement the walnut wood that the owner loves, while also adding a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The interior of the unit has been meticulously reorganized to create an open-plan living area that perfectly caters to the needs of the couple and their furry family member. Glass materials, mirrors, and a crisp white foundation are used throughout the space to create a sense of spaciousness and expansiveness, which adds to its tranquil vibe.

Color:
The unit boasts a simple wood-and-white theme, complementing by subtle pops of black and shades of grey accents which add more charisma, contrast, and innovation to the theme.
Materials:

The unit in showcases a fusion of different textured materials that cater to even the most discerning tastes. Glass materials are widely used in the unit to create a contemporary and minimal feel.

Light-colored materials are used to balance the darker walnut wood, which features prominently in the cabinets and walls. The L-shaped walnut wood wall that connects the foyer and the bathroom is matched with a transparent glass screen and a light grey concrete column. The light grey brick flooring contrasts beautifully with the walnut wood cabinets in the dining and living rooms.

Black decorative pieces are used throughout the unit to create an industrial yet natural look. The muted, non-woven wallpaper in the living room and the bedroom’s concrete wall echo each other. The bathroom has a flowing-water patterned textured wall, while the kitchen features a non-tile wall with a luxurious marble pattern that adds a touch of refinement.

The outdoor space is elevated with the addition of wood flooring on the balcony, creating a comfortable and serene environment. Overall, this space is a masterpiece of design and functionality, with different techniques used to create an illusion of a much bigger space.

Lines:

The designer’s expert use of different types of lines creates a clean, minimal, and sophisticated atmosphere. From the vertical lines in the glass features to the horizontal lines in the TV cabinet, the linear elements add architectural interest and texture to the space.

Lighting:

The designer has crafted the lighting in this unit to create a comfortable and relaxed setting. The false ceiling that extends from the foyer to the living and dining rooms, features subtle light grooves and strategically placed spotlights, creating a bright yet soft glow.

The round wall light in the living room is both functional and decorative, adding a touch of elegance. In the bedroom, the adjustable spotlights, wall lamps, and lamp troughs behind the headboard provide ample and atmospheric lighting.
