PATTERNATION
Vibrant and playful — two words that will no doubt pop into your head the minute you step foot in this adorable apartment where a pair of newlyweds, the founder of a 2D animation company and an art teacher, live with their pet tabby cat, Dusty.
Drawing inspiration from their years of experience in the creative industry, the interior boasts a calming light wood theme peppered with a palette of quirky colours in the form of furniture and tiles that lend a boldness to the space, making it the perfect spot for the brainstorming of creative ideas.
Further expanding on the interplay colours and shapes, the use of vividly coloured furniture, taking the form of a pair of square throw cushions, a round plush rug, a bright scalloped sofa, amongst other components, was introduced to the living room.
Different rooms within the home with similar functions were also physically connected through the use of suspended countertops, visually outlining the relationship each space has with one another and allowing them to intertwine.
Not only that, these countertops, along with the iconic glass walls of the study, also serve to create the illusion of a more spacious apartment; thereby successfully marrying concept with functionality.
The thoughtful use of space, colours, and textures is most evident in this project through the use of different floor tiles that help section the boundaries of each room, as though parts of the flat was colour coded for various purposes which again, adds more colours to the lively space.
To say that this residence, inspired by art and creativity, is a mishmash of colours and character is unquestionably an accurate statement.
