Once upon a time, ‘modern’ meant ‘futuristic’. Then, that aesthetic went away. But this contemporary home in the heart of the city delivers a brilliant new twist on that theme. A multi-level geometric building, this home has been streamlined and styled to include just the right amount of ‘to the future’ thinking via a great use of minimalism, perpendicular lines and lots of silvery tones. We particularly like the large patio doors that come off one double bedroom and the light they provide.

Where do we start with this stunning townhouse? Inspired by Mediterranean and Moorish style, ancient and modern, this place has almost an excess of sophistication. White-one-white colourways meet an abundance of natural materials (wood, stone and textile) to create an ambiance so Zen we suggest factoring in time for some seriously long siestas.
