Natural materials like wood and stone lend peaceful vibe to executive's Margaret Drive condo

- Home & Decor

Earthy luxury

When the owner of this cosy condominium unit bought the space, he knew exactly what he wanted it to be like.

As an introvert, he prioritised peace and quiet for his 960 sq ft home in Margaret Drive, which he shares with his partner. He wanted a warm, light-toned palette filled with texture: wood grain, stone and curved walls, as well as colourful art.

The owner, who is in senior management and did not give his personal details, chose Mr Lopez Lam, principal designer of The Assembly Design, to work with him on the unit.
