Kid's Bedroom

I am telling you a secret: In front of a mirror after shower time, I often whisper to myself, "I'm Batman!"

What we used to do in childhood tends to be considerable as ridiculous when mature people do that. This consideration, for me, is such a "character murder", a sort of violence that is more evil than Hannibal or Joker...

When I have a bedroom to design, specially for a single mature person, during the first meeting  I sometimes tell clients that there is a chance to have bedroom that keeps them connected to their childhood fantasy; nobody would know it. 

The Pianist

My client has a daughter who was about to enter university. She played keyboard in a band at her school. This was the idea I came up with.

 

 

Girly Warhol

Girls love Andy Warhol, especially girls of 70's.

My client is a girl who is nearly going to high school. She knows nothing about Warhol and his legacy. But Warhol is Warhol. His art style always be loved by girls.

Blue

Blue is the most favorite colour in USA. If you are not too sure, google it!

Boys tend to love blue. When I started designing a bedroom for my client's son, I was asking what is his favorite colour. His parents were not sure, then I kept asking: What's his favorite football club? Chelsea was the answer.

Donald Duck's Nephews

Another clients have three kids. They sleep in one large bedroom.

Donald's nephews came up in my head although I was sure these kids know nothing about Walt Disney.

Mom, Im not a child anymore!

Some teenagers do not want to get look childish. These kind of teens tend to love style of elegance, mature and sober.

Previously, I have shown you 'Blue Bedroom'. That room belongs to a boy who has a elder brother who feels he is a serious man. So I designed a bedroom for him with elegant concept.

Geoff Fowler's Kitchen

Client: Geoff Fowler
Location: Green Valley, Senggigi, Lombok

My client needs a kitchen within an open space home. Thus, in order to separate the kitchen from dinning area, I put an island table as mini bar.

Design Concept
I created a symmetry kitchen with stove and cooker hood as the central point. There is enough storage for books and accessories and water heater as well. I played around with bright and dark wooden texture to create elegant and dynamic look.

Kitchen and Laundry in One area

Client: Steward
Location: Batulayar, Senggigi, Lombok

My client is an Australian who just finished building up a house nearby Senggigi beach.
He has provided a room for cooking, dinning and laundry.
I combined the dark oak texture and black granite stone applied onto top table. The result is elegant. My client is happy with it.

Master Bedroom of Dr Yusra's

Client: Dr Yusra Pintaningrum
Location: Mataram City, Lombok

Layout Plan
The size of this master bedroom is 20 metre squares. I split the room into two different areas: Rest area, including wardrobe and hair dressing, and storage area, additional wardrobe to keep shoes, bags and bed cover.

As depicted by layout plan above, I use a standing TV panel as room divider. This 2-side- panel can be used as wardrobe storage on opposite side.

Style
My client is a young couple who both are doctors. Initially, they, specially the wife, talked about modern minimalist which form follows function. However, I offered them to add a little bit classic atmosphere by applying small amount of oak wood texture.

The wood texture eventually changed with maple. As you can see images above, wood colour is different between what has been visualized on 3d visual and the reality photos. This circumstance occurs as I have often told you that a design we created on paper tends to develop during the progress. But, this change is not going out of the design concept.

As shown by two images above, material of wardrobe's has been changed from solid ivory to mirror. I changed it into mirror to make the room visually larger.
