Contemporary Luxe Living Room with Floating Staircase
Design in Details
Project Overview
This contemporary living space is the epitome of understated luxury, seamlessly combining modern design principles with high-end material finishes. The open-plan layout integrates a statement staircase, plush seating, and bold accents to create a space that is both inviting and visually striking.
The client’s vision was for a minimal yet warm interior that balances elegance with comfort, while incorporating architectural features that double as sculptural statements.
Design Concept
Our approach centered on modern symmetry, clean lines, and rich textures. The dark velvet seating contrasts with gold metallic accents, while the floating black marble staircase becomes an artistic focal point. The overall palette is kept neutral, with depth added through material layering and lighting.
