Every new building and every new project that goes up in the heart of Singapore vies to be the city’s latest architectural success story. And not just on the outside, but also in terms of its interior design. This modern and recently completed penthouse is a perfect example of this competition: an oasis of refinement and style realised by John Au, Head of Projects and SingEr Tan, Senior Designer, from the interior design studio The Carpenter’s Workshop. The project is characterised by a carefully chosen neutral base with accents in dark tones, such as the elegant kitchen furniture. There is no doubt that one of the keys to the project is the choice and mix of materials, among which three Cosentino materials, Silestone, Sensa and Dekton, stand out for their high quality and beauty.
According to The Carpenter’s Workshop, the main challenge of the project was to create “a one of a kind kitchen island.” This need arose specifically to meet the requirements of the owner, a host who is used to holding interesting meetings on a regular basis. The island should not only be functional, but also a distinctive and attractive element in the space.
Attractive textures on the right surfaces
The choice of Cosentino materials was crucial to achieving this vision. The studio chose Sensa Black Beauty for its “unique texture and veining”, making the kitchen island a focal point in the penthouse. The bevelled profile applied to the natural stone creates a sculptural totem and a unique meeting place.
The other kitchen features Silestone White Arabesque, a colour chosen for its ability to bring light and spaciousness to smaller spaces. As for the master bathroom, it features Dekton Argentium, where it creates a perfect dialogue with the tiles and manages to create a “sense of minimal elegance”. All these decisions demonstrate how the wide range of Cosentino materials offers greater creativity and possibilities, allowing unique applications in the different areas of the penthouse.
The experience of working with Cosentino has been extremely positive for The Carpenter’s Workshop. The team and customers are really “satisfied with the results achieved in terms of design”. “Cosentino materials have fully met our requirements and have helped us to bring to life the beauty we had in mind for this home,” the studio says. Well, that’s what happens when you combine an experienced interior design studio with high quality materials: you always end up with interesting and inspiring spaces.
