The slanted mountain climbing feature in the quirky fitness corner takes away the role of the main scene stealer, adding a pop of vibrancy to break the plain neutral monotony of the communal area in this contemporary minimalist interior design.

Interior Designer’s Thoughts
Given that the state of the original home was overwhelmed in tacky colors and marble, the interior designer went forth with a 180 degree home transformation while taking into consideration the combined desired aesthetic of the homeowners and the tight budget. While the husband expressed his fondness for industrial interior elements, the wife had a preference for a neoclassical midcentury style.
The interior designer decided to keep the elements of the original condo apartment such as the regal chandelier and olden ornate details, and replaced the marble tiles with extensive cement flooring. Another iconic hallmark of this regal contemporary minimalist condo is the distinctively unique interior style of each bathroom – a pristine minimalist white bathtub centers the master bathroom, an artfully designed cement-covered dry powder bathroom, accompanied with separate workroom for each member. The island bed in the master bedroom is backed by a stone wall partition that overlooks the pool through the window where natural flow floods into the living space. Being cafe owners, quirky vintage decor and stylish furniture pieces can be discovered throughout the communal area in this contemporary minimalist interior design.
