OUR SOLUTION

Since she had booked the Penthouse while the building was still under construction, we had the flexibility of inserting a Designer open riser staircase which would become the central feature connecting the 2 floors. Solid wood furniture designed in the Japanese style became the key feature in the living room. Cleverly located windows maximised natural ventilation, including a small slit window strategically placed above the staircase which created a powerful convection current and did an excellent job of sucking out the warm air rising from below. Use of vibrant colours in the tapestry along with indoor plants gave a youthful vibrancy to the home.
