The Brief

The objective was to transform a standard dressing area into a high-functioning sanctuary that feels like an extension of the master suite’s architecture. The client wanted a space that felt luxurious but made the morning routine effortless.

The Joinery

We wrapped the room in floor-to-ceiling joinery featuring a deep, stepped bolection moulding. Finished in an elegant, soft off-white, the cabinetry provides a refined contrast against the moody dark walls. It feels architectural, clean, and permanent—entirely tailored to the home’s classical proportions.

The Centrepiece

The star is the central island. We gave it a glass top and finished the cabinetry with antique brass knobs. Sitting on a plush carpet, its presence gives a touch of elegance to the entire suite.
