A whimsical lightbox poster frame, similar to those found in movie theatres, adds a playful touch to the room. Currently featuring Up, one of Felicia’s favourite films, Jeffrey said it will soon be swapped for Inside Out, her latest obsession.
The living room also serves a practical function – storage. Built-in, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, which came with the apartment, houses Jeffrey’s collection of sneakers. Once known to have over 300 pairs, he sheepishly admitted his collection is now down to 100 as he now has to share cabinet space with Felicia.
To personalise the space further, they swapped out one of the cabinet doors for a rattan panel, adding a subtle Japanese aesthetic. “The rattan helps with ventilation for the shoes,” Jeffrey explained.
A CREATIVITY ROOM FOR INSPIRATION
The living room connects to one of the most special areas in the apartment: The “creativity room”. This serene space, designed with an elevated tatami mat floor and a retractable coffee table, is where the couple goes to recharge and create. “This is where we do creative and inspiring things – listening to music, reading, or even colouring,” Felicia shared.
