Dream Weaver
By YSG Studio
The mood is revelatory and futuristic, with an upbeat dose of Pedro Almodóvar’s cinematic eccentricity. Contemporary Spanish tapas bars and their liberal use of tiling, surrealism, and rich colour gradations evoking a material take on the northern lights were our inspiration.
A Pantone party of inviting oversized soft landings, deep piled custom rugs, and stone surfaces with planetary swirls levitate within this penthouse, counterbalancing the sobriety of its box-like frame shrouded in glass, whilst demarcating zones within the expansive living area.
Light, crisp layers of marble articulate the vanities in the bathrooms, wrapping around shower walls with a futuristic 2001 space odyssey that meets Mies Van der Rohe’s Barcelona pavilion vibe.
Within the master bedroom, the upholstered bedhead with integrated side tables features stained zebra veneers crowned with calacatta viola marble. A solar system of blown glass lighting in berry shades orbits above.

"It’s the fun, interactive quirks – like the rotating cheeseboard [between the two island benches] – that lend this penthouse its intrigue."
