The Design

About Lam's Villa Privat residens

Designeren fikk i oppgave å ombygge en rommelig firetasjes villa i Kowloon, Hong Kong. Denne romslige boligen på 700 kvm med heis er det nye hjemmet for et ungt par. Et av de mest fremtredende trekkene er den høye takhøyden i oppholdsrommet. Designeren benytter seg derfor av dette mest iøynefallende elementet for å skape et luksuriøst yacht-inspirert interiør med en gjestfri og vennlig karakter som definitivt vil imponere besøkende når de kommer inn i hjemmet. Komfortable og stilfulle designelementer, samt beroligende fargetoner, har derfor blitt gjennomtenkt anvendt i den helhetlige innredningen.

Production Technology: To further respond to the guest friendly criteria, the designer pays special attention to ensure the connectedness between the indoor and outdoor. Floor to ceiling glass sliding screen serves as a partition delineating the space without breaking the coherent of the sitting room (indoor) and the terrace (outdoor). A carefully curated rooftop consists of lounge area, bar and planting zone becomes an ideal place for stargazing and hosting cocktail parties. Eventually, the homeowner’s desire for a comfy, unfettered yet highly interactive abode is achieved.
Design Challenge: The rooftop provides an alternative for outdoor parties. Greyish flooring, pairs with modular furniture to set the mood. Apart from the lounge area, the rooftop also includes a well equipped bar, and a planting area, allowing the homeowner to host barbecues or cocktail parties. Taking full advantages of the residence’s best view, the rooftop serves as a perfect spot for stargazing.

Last but not least, the versatility of specific zones, which interprets the theme of indoor-outdoor crossing without actual boundaries, further evokes a sense of luxurious yacht built for pleasure and entertaining. It’s hard to imagine a residence like this in the concrete jungle exists – the majestic villa seems to be moving!
Research: A decorative scheme composed of bronze and grey palette with oak finishing gives a sophisticated charm to the entire space. To narrate the dynamic of yacht and the simplicity with causal vibe, curved design is widely incorporated throughout the residence. The outdoor area is dominated by greyish flooring and greenery, exuding a completely different ambience compared with the indoor area.
Inspiration: Spanning full six metres in height, the soaring ceiling is undeniably impressive. It is no surprise that quickly caught the eyes of the homeowner. Meanwhile, this would also be the first impression when one step inside the abode. Taken cues from luxurious yacht, the designer would like to fully utilize the ceiling in order to create the sense of looking up cockpit from the deck.
