Stretching out over three spacious storeys, this elegant house embraces a clean and contemporary style that is bright and airy. Occupying 1,800 sq.ft, the owners of this modern yet elegant house in Yuen Long were eager to incorporate a simple but tasteful vibe in their home. Reaching out from the main entrance, the ground floor plays home to the living room, with pristine white walls that are stylish and in vogue, the generous ceiling height and floor-to-ceiling windows allowing ample natural light in to illuminate the space. A pair of bright red armchairs highlights the living room, which collides with the black and white background to bring forth a brisk contrast. Coupled with the simple lines and lighting effects, a modern and comfortable space is yielded. The lounge overlooks a gorgeous outdoor patio, which houses an al fresco dining area protected by a glass roof, ideal for enjoying a morning coffee, and chilling out with the dogs. Magnificent Bonsai trees are placed to add character. Ascending the stairs next to the living room, enter the dining room and kitchen on the mezzanine floor. Deliberately kept relatively bare, the area is occupied by a sophisticated dining table and matching chairs. Finally, the top floor gives way to the more private areas of the property, including an expansive master bedroom with ensuite bathroom, a narrow but highly workable study, and guest rooms. The furniture layout in the master bedroom is relatively simple, a headboard upholstered in faux leather complements the half-waist wooden wall against the bedboard; it is geared with a light trough to create a wall-wash lighting effect, adding a dynamic layered effect to the plain white wall. As the faux ceiling of the vanity dresser is lower than that of other positions in the room, the mirror of the dressing table is able to penetrate the ceiling to elongate the visual effect. Boast of simple colour and texture, this Yuen Long house has leveraged the modish black and white palette to craft a distinctive, warm abode.
