JAJH
“Tonally, the home is punctuated only by green indoor plants, adding a sense of liveliness to the home. Familiarity also comes from a curated collection of selections and artworks that chimes with the home’s subtle nod to mid-century minimalism”

Completion Date: October 2021
JAJH is a two-bedroom apartment currently occupied by a couple and their pet dog.
From its form to its material palette, each design element has been carefully selected to mirror the client’s perception of a perfect home; a residence replete with individual character, warmth, midcentury notes, and artisanal qualities.
Materiality plays an important role in threading together the retro, contemporary aesthetic we were going for where natural tones are played out in the timber flooring, walls, and cabinetry to imbue the home with a warming calm. Micro-cement is used in the master bathroom to mimic the curvatures of a bathtub, integrating it as one with the design while creating a small platform for bathroom amenities.
Curved details and ceilings are layered to create a sense of volume within the home and to conceal all unnecessary detailing. We also hand-picked furnishings that possess a certain roundness in each edge and surface including the sofa, dining table, coffee table, and lamps, intended to soften the interior
The spectrum of walnut and beige remains consistent throughout, layered with beige drapery and neutral fabrics
