Interior

 

Architecture BRIO has been involved in the interior design of several high end residential apartments. Our interior design services include complete solutions from architectural space planning to the softer touches that go into making a home.

Our residential interiors aim to enhance and add value to the home owners life. In order to achieve this, we first visualise with our clients how they live. But perhaps more importantly we imagine, with them, what different possibilities their new abode could offer. Hereafter, through thorough planning, we derive at a suitable space plan that opens up these possibilities of living.

In interior design, the initial planning and selection process is equally, if not more important than the construction process. An extensive design and planning stage facilitates a control over project budgets. Furthermore it allows the execution process to follow uninterruptedly. With a thorough integration of services such as lighting, air conditioning and home automation, the homes become a seamless extension to everyday life.

In compact spaces, we aim to create impactful spaces that can do more than one thing. Spaces should have the ability to hide the daily clutter for a serene ambience, but they should also be able to accommodate multiple activities simultaneously. Bespoke built in furniture pieces in open living concepts accommodate a variety of different functions that can open up when needed.

In more generous apartments, we revel in the challenge to develop a rich spatial experience. A more compartmentalised series of rooms has the opportunity to create unique and diverse interiors that reflect the lives of those who live in them. At the same time, a choreography of movement builds up an experiential quality of anticipation that tie the interiors together.

We believe in using good quality materials, whether they are of high value or of humble origin. We prefer using solid materials that can be crafted and sculpted. Good quality hardware makes the operation of everyday items seamless. Finishes should age well and add character to the home over time. These are all important to our design ideology and aesthetic sensibility.
