Jessie Street Apartment banner

Beginning with a complete blank canvas, we were tasked with updating and injecting life to this inner-city apartment interior, to better reflect our clients’ fun-loving & vivacious personalities.

From the primary suite at one end of the apartment, through to a complete custom kitchen re-design in the heart of the home, and the finishing touches in the guest bedroom at the front; we injected touches of personality throughout.

Fresh whites, smoky greys and charcoals set the base colour palette - with additions of mustard, bottle green, cobalt blue, pink and red layered into the furnishings, artwork and vignettes to make an inviting space that is a joy to spend time in. A touch of gold brings just the right amount of bling to the interior!

The kitchen features classic materials of oak - in both slatted and panel form - marble tops and green-grey lacquered finishes, topped off with black accents in the tapware, handles and lighting for a contrasting punch.

Custom furniture and furnishings were selected for the perfect balance of comfort, style and functionality. Clean lines keep the overall feeling sleek and uncluttered, while soft finishes of cushioned velvet and rugs underfoot create a haven for relaxing after a long day at work, or lounging with friends during an evening of entertaining.
