In 2018, the design team focused on creating a warm and inviting atmosphere within the apartment. The use of engineered ultra-thin wood as the primary material for wall coverings demonstrates a commitment to both sustainability and cutting-edge design. The mesh sheets with a basic A pattern add a unique texture, enhancing the visual interest of the space while maintaining a sense of elegance.

The concept of 'Curves, colours and shapes' resonates throughout the apartment, reflecting the eclectic mix of furnishings that encompass various design eras. The integration of family heirlooms from the 1930s alongside contemporary pieces collected from travels creates a narrative that is deeply personal yet sophisticated. Each element is carefully chosen to contribute to a cohesive aesthetic that celebrates diversity in design.
