When it comes to transforming a normal residence into a home full of understated elegance, the vintage combination of black and white never fails to deliver.

Inspired both in name and theme by the greenery in the nearby park and country club, The Greens @ TTDI is an impressive statement on luxury living in an already prestigious neighbourhood. A resident of this high-end condominium desired an abode that reflected this exclusivity but had its own identity unique to that of the overall development and entrusted the IQI Concept team with the task of making this a reality.

The designers ultimately settled on a modern contemporary style with a great deal of focus on minimalism for the home. Deceptive simplicity in terms of the décor and even the palette would be the key to making the project distinct without being visually overwhelming. To that end, a primarily monochrome colour scheme was applied to the residence with some harmonising tones sparingly added at strategic points for a welcome touch of contrast.

Embodying this theme to the fullest, the home boasts grey marble floor tiles and walls that are primarily white. The exception is one side which sports a coat of grey textured paint partially bracketed by strips of wood around the doorway and the edge next to the balcony sliding door. Even the recessed ceiling accomplishes this by adopting a zebra-stripe aesthetic to both highlight the recessed section and conceal the overhead lights.

While the dining area inconspicuously distinguishes itself by featuring a dark brown wooden dining set, it remains true to the palette through the dark grey upholstery of its dining chairs. On the other hand, the kitchen manages to set itself apart while still complying with the core colour scheme by having white marble countertops and smooth white cabinets. This is offset by the black steel stools paired with the countertop and the three black pendant lights hanging overhead.

In the case of the living area, the irregularly-spaced vertical lines on the television wall running all the way to the ceiling add a great deal of character to it and help differentiate it from the dining area. Finishing off this look is the choice to furnish the place with a black television cabinet, grey L-shaped sofa, a pair of black and brown coffee tables and a black stand lamp. A grey rug and the grey balcony door curtains add another much-needed layer of texture to this setup.

However, the master bedroom completely abandons this monochrome palette in favour of one that gives it a more Scandinavian feel and a warmer ambience. Wood is the primary element here from the flooring to the wall-mounted cabinet which follows the curve of the corner. Additionally, this furnishing blends seamlessly with the artistically-cut wooden headboard that covers the entire wall the bed is pushed up against and pairs well with the curtains which are a matching shade of brown. Exempt from this is the stunning painting of a ballerina resting on the cabinet near the bed which provides a welcome touch of colour and personality.
