Earthy tones and contemporary-classic design fill this cosy apartment in Indonesia.This 3,500sqf, three-bedroom apartment in Jakarta is an elegant and comfortable family home, with its blend of contemporary and classical styles.

Designed by a Singapore interior design firm, Prestige Global, the apartment features furniture and decorative details in an archetypal classical style, such as wainscoted walls painted in a champagne hue, plush tufted sofas, and highback armchairs.

A partition wall incorporated with a window demarcates the living and dining rooms, while still providing a line of vision between the spaces; its timber frame is finished in white spray paint. A Louis Vuitton trunk sits against the wall on the living room’s side.

The kitchen was also reconfigured to fit a dining table and chairs by American designer Thomas Pheasant – one of the family’s favourite designers. The original kitchen fittings, including the bulky kitchen island, were removed. New built-in carpentry hide the fridge and oven. Thanks to a long island countertop, the kitchen looks more streamlined.

To bring the contemporaryclassic theme into the master bedroom, the designers framed the bed, which adds a sense of modern grandeur. Earthy tones and ambient lighting create an intimate atmosphere, while fabric blinds and curtains help block out light, ensuring a good night’s sleep!
