Residential Design

Leonie Hill

A duplex penthouse apartment in residential River Valley. The apartment opens onto a large living/dining space leading onto a balcony with views over the city. Creating an adult focused living area was important in our design as the family have four young children and their recent move allowed space for the children to have their own media and playroom. In our design we created a centralised living area with a beautiful Cassina marble table at the core. A pair of sofas, leather club chairs, occasional tables and atmospheric lighting were key in ensuring this large space held warmth and character with a contemporary aesthetic. The open-plan dining area was kept simple with Thonet chairs from the client’s native Australia, a streamlined oak timber table and pendant lighting. Bedrooms were updated to add warmth and texture.
