The focal point of Loft W’s living space lies in the male homeowner’s prized whisky collection, which is displayed on the statement wall. Through the blend and paving of such varied materials as stone, modular panels and metal parts, an exotic vibe of a small pub comes into being.
With clever configuration of light and shadow in the space, on the inside the showcase is composed yet never dull, while on the outside everything looks bright and is charged with character.
The foyer has a large mudroom and thus looks grand, mellowed with light-gray wooden walls. The dark-toned metal screen between the foyer and the living room has a unique shape, with an upper curve lessening its bulkiness. The screen not only serves as a statement piece but also resolves the problem of Chuantangsha—a feng-shui taboo of fully-exposed view of the space from the entryway.
Open shelving combined with wooden cabinetry is installed on the wall between the entryway and the living room to accommodate full storage needs.
The divider between the living room and the dining room is removed, and a wooden arch acts as a transition for the beam above the sofa to connect with the narrow brick wall next to the French window, thereby modifying width difference while accentuating visual depth of the living-ding room. The inside and outside is thus tactfully defined, giving a finishing touch to highlight the wine collection.
The large expanse of the wine cabinetry is the focal point of the entire room, with closed cabinetry below the waist and the upper part fitted with glass shelving and box shelves based on the sizes of whisky bottles.
Metal blinds on the window protect the wine cabinetry from sun exposure. The symmetrical walls feature green serpentine bricks paired with iron parts that tie in with metal door handles on the wine cabinets, ahead of which is a large island paved with Dekton stone and dark-toned modular panels. With refined ingenuity, a luxe touch of the large stone sheet is shaped, which is cost-effective at the same time.
The master bedroom is characterized by the female homeowner’s favorite bright colors. Light-toned modular cabinetry and furniture serve to layer the space. The second bedroom, used by the male homeowner, features gray shades and is laid out with a door concealed behind the living-room TV wall. The dark-toned desk connects with the wine cabinetry and wall shelving, creating fun among the steadiness and stability.
The 132-square-meter space, centered on the whisky collection, is full of sensation and visual layers by means of precise configuration of varied materials, thereby highlighting the value of the premium wine. Rather than shallow collage of design motifs, refined details get to brew a special story for this special space.
Like the homeowner’s beloved whisky, quintessential, strong cultural undertones make for the fun and touch of an English pub for Loft W’s residents to enjoy to the full.
