Casa Pool

A contemporary style built upon the merging of cultures and eras. Casa Pool is where we connected with the client over a shared love of Japanese culture and fashion, as well as the urgency to modernize the interior of their classic house. The challenge here was: How do we convince the client of the value of what we were doing as a design studio, and how do we approach modernizing a classic space without losing its soul?

Recognizing the client’s love of design products, we encouraged the placement of artful pieces that would give a unique edge to the classic architecture of the house. Pieces like a Virgil Abloh rug, Fritz Hansen daybed, a Molteni table, and more, exist side by side in this house on top of marble flooring, wood paneling, and classic profiling as its classicism canvas.

The client believed in our vision and rode together with us in taking design risks. Risks that have made the outcome interesting and far from safe. For example, where else would we find an opportunity to grace a pool with a graphic design approach such as the pool in the Patal Senayan project? The project may be classical, but the collaboration between us and the client is an example of a successful design project.
