A Stylish Asian-inspired Apartment at Ain-Saadeh

Arch & arts latest work on the interior design of a young couple apartment located in Ain-Saadeh.

Case Study:

Our clients, a young couple, turned to us for help designing & furnishing their newly acquired apartment in Ain-Saadeh.

They wanted the apartment to feel like a serene, Asian-inspired, comfy-oriented place. So we infused smart catchy elements and Zen sensibilities to create an interior space with style & character. Nothing too fussy or fancy, but just simple & placid.

We went on by painting the walls with light shades of gray and/or covering them with minimalistic wallpapers patterns creating a catchy mix of subtle colors in all the apartment rooms.

Living & reception areas were kept clean and humble by selecting monochromatic color schemes for the main furniture, yet we did throw in some pillows with different textures to add some warmth to the space. Some other pieces that helped tie the furnishings together were a splurge accent of polished chrome elements.

The master bedroom design was of another match. We selected a Japanese-inspired low platform bed, and we kept the color palette simple with whites, woods and subtle grays.

Still in respect to the Asia-style guideline, we livened up the interiors with wood props, pops of black & white, and a refined mix of Japanese, Chinese and Thai geometric shapes. Doors were kept typical in terms of design & color so not to disquiet the ambiance and to accentuate the cohesiveness of the space.

Overall, we created a truly livable Asian-inspired space apt for relaxation and entertainment, an apartment that really stands out.

Below are some views from the project.

Duplex Chalet in Faqra, Kfardebian.

1 Jun , 2015  

featured

Arch & arts latest work on the interior design of a family chalet located in Faqra, Kfardebian.

Case Study:

A spacious duplex chalet located in Faqra, at the prestigious “Les Suites de Faqra” Complex located within the limits of the renowned “Faqra Club” Village.

The client, a young Lebanese family turned to us for guidance & help. They wanted their chalet to feel like a serene, English-inspired, casual place to live in Winter & Summer.

We transformed the living areas by using lighter shades of paints on the walls keeping everything clean and simple with classic sensibilities schemes, which we livened up with wood accents, pops of gray and beige, and geometric classic shapes throughout.
We wanted the reception areas of the chalet to feel calm and rich, so we selected Italian-inspired furniture and lighting appliances, keeping the props palette simple

A dedicated attention was given to the kitchen, where rustic elements were combined to the colors and patterns to reflect the high-mountain flair of the chalet.
The bedrooms were designed around bright colors and incorporated almond wood elements to keep the chalet’s design cohesive.

Below are some views from the project.

Dining Room Wall Makeover!

2 Mar , 2015  

feature

The project consisted on making a neat makeover of the dining room wall; enhance the looks while creating storage vitrines for bottles, glasses & amenities.

Arch & arts?? design scheme included full wood & glass upper cabinets for storage and display, a small bar on the corner and a cheerful painting.

Since the wallpaper was already installed the option of installing recessed lighting in the cabinets was not feasible, knowing that such an interesting option would have helped improving the look & feel of the wood works graciously.

It was essential that the design be modern, relaxed and fun rather that communal.

We created high specification wood cabinets with an outstanding design structure using ??Smart Glass?? shutters.

The use of a glossy grey color for painting the upheld wood elements was an all-important aspect. It added impact to the whole structure and a refreshing look, as glossiness reflected both the dynamic wallpaper and the stylish furniture elements of the apartment.

The bar color was black to match with the existing dresser and thus respect the continuity of the horizontal latent elements.

The centre-point of the design was the installation?of the colorful bold canvas in the middle of the wall, between the cabinets, inviting vividness into the space.

The end view was a refreshing makeover of the wall and an overgenerous flavor for the whole dining room area.

13 Jan , 2015  

writefeat2

We are excited to introduce you to our new blog. This is where we will continue on sharing our thoughts & projects and cover the architecture & design ideas that are shaping our industry & the world.

Since the launch of Arch & arts’ blog 4 years ago it was the main platform where we introduced our new projects. However, for several reasons, it wasn’t filled on a regular basis.

With social media soaring lately it was mandatory to follow up the trend and establish a plan to stimulate the blog. While Arch & arts’ other social media accounts were up and running actively (Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin…) we decided that beginning of 2015 we will motivate our team to push-up the blog and enhance its content drastically.

So prepare yourselves to receive further updates on Arch & arts’ works & activities, as well as on the latest news on architecture, interior design & other related events in the Lebanese design landscape.

Or, we may just share whatever is on our mind!

So, we invite you to take a tour around our newly re-designed blog, bookmark our website & connect with us on social media (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn & Youtube)

We will have a lot of updates to share in the coming weeks & months!

Inspiring Residence in Antelias.

19 Dec , 2014  

antfeat1

The residential building, a relatively new edifice of 8 storeys located in Antelias, is comprised of 8 apartments with not so bright original partitions; too much wasted space & functionality hassles.

Arch & arts intervention focused on remodeling the interior to achieve better space management, reach circulation fluidity as well as achieving an esthetic look based on the guidelines & tastes of the owners, as in fine the apartment needed to be very representative of the inhabitants stylishness.

The apartment was refurbished respecting these principles; simultaneously spatial redistribution was intended to address the requested way of living. At the owners requests the interior spaces were condensed to deliver better intimacy and a new sense of wellbeing. The master idea was to restrict to contemporary design.

We provided a careful attention at the lighting procedures of all rooms, looking to derail form abundant lighting and glossiness, thus we created weighty shadow games providing a touch of refinement and velvetiness.

To strengthen the cozy atmosphere, we used many wooden details, such as the kitchen & the master bedroom flooring and we used a frenzy oak pattern for all the doors. To set the mood of the living room, the floor consisted of a fuchsia epoxy paint layer accentuating the modernist and dusky style.

Below are some pictures from the project.
