Marble takes centre stage in this opulent, modern house
“Peter’s Playground is a veritable ode to marble, combining its classic beauty with cosy textures to produce a sophisticated yet welcoming environment.” —–Studio GSA.
Creating a home for a customer with an extensive knowledge of marble offers a unique opportunity. This home is more than simply a place to live; the careful display of marble’s elegance, texture, and versatility through design makes it the focal point of the entire house.
The journey starts with the lift foyer, where visitors are welcomed by a sleek oak bench and a dramatic relief marble feature wall. The entryway, where white marble flooring with a striking black inlay creates an instant sense of grandeur, is reached through the textured wooden entrance door. A marble and metal table, an elaborately framed mirror, and a veneered storage box provide depth and refinement while perfectly fusing function and style.
The family and dining rooms, which are located further inside the house, add an unexpected twist to the marble story. Against a backdrop of soft beige-painted walls, white-painted, fluted timber panels emerge from marble floors. Glass panelling and bedroom doors also use this theme, preserving design coherence. The marble inlay flooring in the dining area highlights the stone’s exquisite patterns and gives the impression of a plush carpet, doing away with the need for a rug. A television unit in the family area is surrounded by relief marble cladding, which gives it depth and character.
With its luxurious leather couches and fluted oak ceiling panels, the formal living room radiates warmth and sophistication. Bar stools with elaborate Indian designs provide a cultural touch, while a hidden bar area covered in silver river marble is a subtle yet eye-catching element.
With leather, lapatro, and fluted marble finishes, bathrooms provide a luxurious interplay of textures that provide a physical experience. Fire-red marble with expressive veins, hand-selected to ensure each surface tells its tale, is part of the kitchen’s striking style.
The master suite’s soothing beige hues, the car enthusiast’s bright blue accent wall, the lively bunk bed with blue onyx accents, and the guest room’s serene pastel hues are all examples of how bedrooms express distinct personalities.
Warm textures like velvety suede and fluted wood counterbalance the grandeur of marble in this house. The homeowner’s love for marble is reflected in every design decision, creating an opulent yet welcoming area that skilfully combines modern beauty with history.
