Residential
Modern Minimal Home
A calm family home of timber, cream upholstery and soft, indirect light.
The idea
This design direction explores a family home where every room shares one restrained palette: warm timber slats, pale stone floors and cream, textured upholstery.
Rather than filling rooms, the design edits them — leaving space around a few sculptural pieces so that light and material do most of the work.

Design Approach
How the space comes together
- 01
One continuous palette
Timber, stone and linen repeat through every room, so the home reads as a single, quiet whole.
- 02
Light as a material
Concealed linear lighting washes the slatted walls, giving the evenings a warm, even glow.
- 03
Curves for softness
Rounded sofas and tables soften the strong verticals of the panelling.
