Been working on a contemporary Scandinavian home where my client requested for super-clean, dust-proof, easy-to-maintain interiors. Since Scandinavian design has been trending lately, I recommended we go for this particular look—its palette of warm neutrals and bright and airy aesthetic are perfect for the kind of lifestyle and environment he wants to live in.
Luckily, his condo’s finishes already go well with the style we picked, that we hardly need to make major additions or renovations. Below are the furniture picks and pegs that we selected for each of the rooms in this spacious two-bedroom condo:
The dining area was the most challenging to pick furniture for as the space is really, really tiny. I recommended a custom bar table, but since my client preferred retail options, I suggested getting the Docksta table from Ikea, which is available in Mobler. To enlarge the space visually, we’re doing the old mirrored wall trick, and I’m adding these beautiful copper pendants that I found in Cebu to add both overhead and ambient light.
That’s about it. So far, my client and I are in agreement with most of the picks (in fact, most of the items above are already pieces he has pre-selected). It’s just a matter of really narrowing down our options for the other items we need, and reserving them for delivery to the unit.
