The design of Novum East draws the surrounding verdant greens into the project, from the external columns and the sculpted green wall at the entrance, to the bonsai-themed décor inside the clubhouse. The interiors reinterpret rural and rustic charm with effortless flair. Taking cues from classic farmhouses, the residents’ clubhouse is conceptualized as an “Urban Barn”, with a collection of luxurious entertainment and amenity spaces.

Individual areas are defined by low walls and sliding partitions, which maximize the opportunity for a flexible experience. Throughout the space, light timber and earth tones are matched with metallic accents to elevate the design narrative.
