Walnut, burgundy and city light

A two-bedroom apartment in Business Bay, handed over empty and all white. The client asked us for a proposal to make it warm and lived-in: soft beige limewash walls, walnut joinery, travertine, cognac leather, and deep burgundy as the accent colour.

Materials

Warm, tactile and calm, with burgundy as the one strong note.

  • Walnut wardrobes and kitchen joinery
  • Travertine vanity and floors
  • Burgundy glazed tiles and brass fittings in the bathroom
  • Cognac leather sofa and lounge chair
  • Burgundy velvet bedding
