Project brief
Transform a seven-bedroom villa into a feminine home that’s soft, cosy, understated and family orientated. LW Design was to ensure each room had their own identity and flowed seamlessly. LW created separation between the family living areas and the formal areas; this dictated the overall flow and layout of the villa.

LW Design was tasked to create a soft and inviting scheme with neutral colours, warm timbers, and soft grey marble. The spaces were designed to connect the vast landscape, majlis and formal dining to create a contemporary garden room surrounded by the gardens. Biophilic living continues throughout with large plants and doors that open onto terraces.

Design elements
LW installed screens behind the master beds displaying custom artwork. The space is divided with champagne gold screens and decorative shelving. Luxury silk and wool rugs were added for comfort. The open plan living room has a central show kitchen and split into areas to create intimate seating. A neutral colours are used with soft textures accented with teal and dusky pink.

Execution
LW worked with contractors and suppliers to ensure samples and finishes were accurate. The process was streamlined to ensure there were few surprises when items were delivered. Ambience The result was sophistication and luxury mixed with comfort and relaxation. The artwork tied the overall experience throughout the villa bringing life and a pop of colour to the spaces. 

Challenges overcome
