Classic touches, an improved layout and pops of colour add vitality to this elegant holiday pad for Silvia Kurniady and family.
When Indonesian businesswoman Silvia Kurniady needed an interior designer for her family’s holiday home, she didn’t have to look hard to find someone she could trust: Eddy Kuswandi, design director of Enoch ID, happens to be a long-time friend of hers.
Shapes, colours, and textures jazz up the living area. Eddy unified these details with a colour palette of grey, blue, and yellow.
Silvia and her family visit their holiday home regularly, and this apartment serves that purpose just fine.
One bedroom features porcelain blue and white wallcoverings, complemented by furnishings in muted colours. Eddy also designed a pull-out bed so that more family members could sleep over.
It may look like an art piece, but this wall feature also hides the television when it is not in use. The glass door below was customised to look like fan-shaped metal grilles. The fan motif is seen on other artworks throughout the home as well.
The combination of patterned walls, a statement mirror, and a stylish dark wood console results in a luxurious and welcoming foyer.
Meticulous thought went into the choice of furnishings. The clear coffee table, which sits in the centre of the living area, helps make the living room feel more spacious.
Splashes of blue brighten up the neutral colours in the master bedroom. Here, too, there is a focus on symmetry with the use of mouldings and matching furnishings.
“For the guest room, we wanted to create a calm and relaxed environment,” Eddy says, explaining the use of khaki, beige, and grey.
