THE RIGHT FIT
The sprawling roof terrace of this penthouse that leads to the pool, while majestic, was underutilised. KGID turned this blank canvas into a well-rounded entertaining area by dividing it into smaller zones. Near the pool is the lounge with a generously cushioned sofa, next to it is the dining and barbeque area while a corner elsewhere is designated as a yoga area. One can enjoy the sweeping panorama from any spot.
Existing snug space, on the other hand, can also be tweaked to feel more spacious with the right furnishings and material palette. This is apparent in the master bedroom’s walk-in closet. The original wardrobe area was deemed too small, so KGID redesigned the layout using as many glazed and mirrored surfaces as possible.
The master bedroom and walk-in wardrobe are separated by glass doors that can be slid completely open, merging the two areas together. Barring a few stacks of drawers, most of the cabinets and wardrobe system are exposed or transparent, displaying their contents in their full glory, lit by f lattering lights worthy of the most glamorous fashion boutiques on the island. This way, the room appears larger and the clients can find and admire their fashion and accessories collection.
Tawny accent cushions add pops of colour to the understated master bedroom; hat shelves demarcate the bed area from the dressing zone; the open-concept look of the wardrobe area is reminiscent of hotel-style suites; an outdoor sofa creates another entertaining area by the pool
