This residence has a very fine balance between feminine and masculine
that I find very appealing. There is an overall softness to these two interior
spaces designed by Architects Janson Goldstein.
The deep colours are not over-baring or too dark, but
instead they have hit the right tone to create a misty ambience that is subdued
and restful. The cocktail tables in the living
space make an absolute statement in the room. They add a visual softness to an
otherwise ridged vignette. One is made from teak and the two in the foreground
are made from slabs of selenite. The symmetry
of the windows and the two sofas creates a comfortable ease that is still
slightly formal.
The Library looking through to the living space is a room I
could die for (and definitely inspiration for my sister and brother-in-law’s
new place). I adore all the organized chaos and appreciate everything having its
place. I also love the way the bookshelves frame the next room as if it were a piece
of art or a view from a window.
