Pudong Apartment

A 180 m² apartment on an upper floor of a tower in Pudong, Shanghai. Floor-to-ceiling windows turn the skyline into the backdrop of every room, from the living area to the bathroom, at dusk, when the towers light up.

Inside, everything is calm and enveloping: a smooth ceiling edged with ribbons of golden light, dark parquet flooring in the living areas and bedroom, dark wood panels and slats, and black marble with fine pale veining. The living area holds a large cream corner sofa, a round coffee table and a long dining table beneath black pendant lights. The bedroom, clad in wood, opens onto the city, and the white island bathtub faces the view.

Burgundy, echoed in the stools, cushions and throw, is the only colour accent; brass adds a few reflections and plants soften the room.
