Three Bedroom + Maids, Town House
A contemporary townhouse shaped by arched geometries, seamless transitions and precise architectural detailing. Warm neutrals, subtle timber tones and tactile finishes establish a calm material foundation, layered with functional, accent and task lighting to introduce depth and atmosphere. Concealed storage and slim-framed glazing keep the spaces visually clean, while herringbone flooring adds rhythm and character across the ground floor. Each room carries a distinct identity within a unified design language. The meditation room draws from Japanese Zen spaces to create a calm, restorative retreat, while the bedrooms are softened through comforting textures and intimate detailing. The living, dining and kitchen are tied together through material continuity, fabric, form and lighting, with a bronze-tinted mirror in the dining area enhancing the perceived depth of the space. The result is an exceptional contemporary family home that feels distinctive, functional and effortlessly cohesive.
The process
The process for this Town Square residence was less about imposing a completely new identity and more about understanding what could be refined, retained and made to work better.
A lot of the design development came from resolving the junctions between spaces, how the living room meets the dining area, how the kitchen reads from the lounge, and how storage could disappear into the architecture instead of becoming a visual interruption. Several elements evolved through this back-and-forth, particularly the media wall, dining display, glazing and kitchen detailing, where proportion and continuity became just as important as the individual design features.
We also worked closely with the existing conditions of the townhouse. Rather than replacing everything, selected finishes and fixtures were retained where they made sense, allowing the design effort to focus on the areas that would have the greatest visual and functional impact. This made the process more considered and helped balance ambition with practicality.
The bedrooms and meditation room were developed more individually, responding to how each space would actually be used. The aim was to make them feel personal and comfortable without disconnecting them from the rest of the home.
By the final stage, the project had been shaped through a series of precise adjustments rather than one dramatic gesture; refining scale, simplifying details, testing materials and resolving how each element would translate from render to execution.
