The contrast between the lush Lung Fu Mountain at the apartment’s backside, and the front view of Hong Kong’s high-rises inspired the design concept: juxtaposition of nature and luxurious comfort. Artwill used natural hues and woods throughout, and oriented the bathtub in the master bathroom towards the greens outside. But the owners wanted to set a luxurious tone for guests. A tree silhouette cut out of a wooden panel welcomed visitors at the entrance. They would relax in the breakfast-cum-minibar, and then they would enjoy the owners’ cooking on a long, white marble dining table.
