BEST PENTHOUSE PROJECT
ANTIMATTER
The generous use of timber in various textures and grain varieties gives this two-storey penthouse a warm, timeless look; the wood detailing also creates a unity between the apartment and its verdant surrounds. Conceptualised by Antimatter founder Gabriel Tan (pictured on opposite page), the home sports an old-world elegance and an abundance of spaces for socialising.
Parts of this cosy sanctuary boast design inspiration from various parts of the world, informed by Tan’s continentspanning career. For instance, the curved ceiling design is a nod to the Catalan vaulted ceilings that drew his eye when he was in Barcelona, while the furniture selection features a tasteful mix of pieces from established luxury brands, new international labels and Tan’s own creations. Elsewhere, various materials such as copper and Marmorino plaster add texture, melding effortlessly to create a beautiful, multisensorial abode.
