Dear Client, thank you for the opportunity to design your home.
The design was made with minimal alteration to the current layout. The major idea was to divide the current kitchen and turn it into two areas, kids bedroom and bathroom, so that it will face the best view to the east. A small-enclosed-private garden is placed in front of the main bathroom window to create a small oasis in the bathroom.
Also removing the walls between the current living area and master bedroom, with the current master bedroom becoming the kitchen and dining area, while the current living area was enlarged to fit your existing furniture and create a more spacious living room. With non-solid, open shelves divider between the hall, living, dining and kitchen, to create a continuous flow and view. The open shelves are designed as curved to create a continuous, uninterrupted flow throughout the spaces.
A fireplace and glass wine cellar were placed between the kitchen/dining area and the living area the separate the area while keeping the two spaces connected.
The color palette was kept to minimal, based on your references pictures, it seems that you would prefer a clean and white look. Black are repeated throughout the design to compliment your existing black leather furniture.
We hope the design satisfy your expectations, thank you. Kind regards.
