Rooted Japandi Home Transformations

A video showing the dramatic transformation of the dining and family lounge. By swapping the functions of the two spaces, I created a more open and connected plan that feels both cozy and spacious.

A before-and-after look at the kitchen renovation in the Japandi home. The gloomy, cramped space was completely reimagined into a large, functional, and beautiful kitchen, becoming the true hearth of the home.

The formal living space, designed with a neutral and earthy palette. An organically shaped marble and wood table sits on a jute rug, complemented by off-white sofas and a sleek rattan console.

This video showcases the smart, rotatable wood and rattan partition I designed to separate the living and dining areas. The pivots allow the user to control the level of privacy, adding a unique and functional accent.

The refurbished octagonal dining table, originally crafted by the client's late father. I restored it with a fresh veneer, a new quartz top, and a lazy susie, preserving its sentimental value while updating its function.
