Fitzroy Apartment

Fitzroy Apartment

The brief for this one-bedroom apartment, only 46 square metres, was to modernise the living areas and create a big impact despite its limited size.

Smaller pieces of furniture have been chosen for their unobtrusive silhouettes, such as a sofa with narrow arms and legs, a low coffee table and stools, transparent dining chairs and petite, single-drawer bedside tables. Devices such as diagonal wallpaper and portrait photos visually heighten the walls and add drama.

Against the black and white palette, washes of grey and the occasional punch of vivid blue ensure the effect is bold and cohesive without appearing crowded.
