Maastricht Penthouse in The Netherlands by KOLENIK DesignFriday, September 20th, 2019Article source: KOLENIK Design ‘Intuitive design is where the new luxury lies’ In a monumental building at the heart of Maastricht, interior designer Robert Kolenik has created a high-end penthouse where the luxury is surprisingly often not visible. “It’s all about the details and the durability. A perfectly finished statuario marble fireplace, intuitive LED lighting that comes on at a dimmed level when you enter a space. And materials that will outlast you. For me, this is the new luxury.” A penthouse of more than three hundred square metres. And then being given ‘carte blanche’ for the interior design. This was a dream commission for Robert Kolenik and his team, who with his Eco Chic Design style brings together cradle-to-cradle design with warmth and luxury. Robert Kolenik explains: “Of course it’s wonderful to be given carte blanche. It shows that people trust you, but it is also a big responsibility. In order to ensure that the clients ended up with the comfortable, luxurious space that they had in mind, I involved them in the process at key moments. For example, they picked out the marble themselves for the imposing fireplace in the living room at the supplier. The variety of shades and vein patterns on offer makes this a highly personal choice.”  Image Courtesy © Rene van Dongen
Penthouse18 in Sydney, Australia by Stukel ArchitectureFriday, August 23rd, 2019Article source: Stukel Architecture Equipped for entertaining, this dynamic penthouse in the heart of Surry Hills is inspired by commercial hospitality interiors. Our clients, a couple from France and New York, worked with us to make bold and unexpected choices for their Sydney chapter. The existing 2 bedroom apartment had a poorly planned layout and lacked generosity of movement and proportion. One incredible asset was a very large roof terrace offering views out across the southern Sydney CBD skyline. The new floor plan has been designed to connect all new fixtures to the existing services of waste, water and power. The positioning of the wet areas and kitchen avoided the disruptive and expensive process of core holing through the concrete slab into the ceiling space of the neighbour below.

Penthouse O in Ghent, Belgium by JUMA architectsFriday, July 19th, 2019Article source: JUMA architects This new penthouse was bought on plan from a project developer. The client came to JUMA for the entire redesign of the proposed interior. The complete new layout also had implications for the outside facades. As such, JUMA also determined part of the outside architecture. The new layout was to accommodate three bedrooms instead of the existing two, using the same floor surface and without changing the interior program or sacrificing the sense of spaciousness. JUMA set out in search of the most logical layout and came up with a design defined by circulation lines that maximize the available floor space. A central block was placed between the sitting area and the kitchen with dining room, fitted with an incorporated gas fireplace on the side of the living room and the kitchen recess on the other. Placed in between these two elements is a storage area for the kitchen. Along the central block, the volume of the storage space is continued to accommodate a desk. The low cabinet in the seating area houses the TV and gently leads to the hallway.  Image Courtesy © Cafeine

Axis Building in Cape Town, South Africa by dhkWednesday, June 5th, 2019Article source: dhk dhk Architects has completed an apartment block conceived as a monolith with indentations and cut-outs. The building features 85 luxury residential apartments and penthouses supplemented with small-scale commercial and retail space at ground level. Occupying a prominent corner position in growing suburb Century City in Cape Town, the landmark development has been designed to capitalise on enviable views of Table Mountain and the Atlantic Ocean. The building connects to the environment in a myriad of strategic ways and sets a precedent for urban conscious residential developments in the city. The compact form of the building wraps around itself and gradually rises, orientating most of the apartments towards views of the city. Its unique doughnut-shaped form is adorned with visual gashes that allow the sheltered walkway spaces to catch glimpses of the city around it, connecting the inside circulation to the outside world. The rising form cuts away, creating dynamic terraces and activity at differing heights, culminating in generous penthouse units. Transporting every inhabitant on a scenic journey to their destination, a large panoramic lift runs the full height of the building and is positioned at the pinnacle of its mass. A stand-out element of the design, the exterior of the lift is completely clad in red aluminium and sits within a glass shaft facing Table Mountain.  Image Courtesy © dhk
