The beautiful residence of Gulnar and Kavine Vaswani merges art, textures, culture and personal curios to gorgeous effect.

The result of our collaborations turned out completely differently to what we originally imagined,” says Simon Chong, the founder of Simon Chong Design Consultants Limited. In the beginning, Gulnar presented me with a storybook of references, which was mainly American Classic style with timeless grey tones.”

He continues: This abode is bathed in light from all directions, so I felt it would be a pity to play this all down with such a monochrome palette. We experimented together and I decided to play on the family’s favourite colours – Gulnar loves blue, Kavine loves orange and red, while their sons Jahaan and Rohaan are partial to blue and green.”

The carefully curated mix and match of materials flows through the home and ties the aesthetic together seamlessly. In fact, the most impressive aspect about the overall design is that it is such an assemblage of different styles and materials, yet everything just falls into place naturally. My husband is hard to please but he is probably the most house proud of us all,” Gulnar reveals.

Having grown up in the States and as the owners of homes in Vancouver, London and Miami, these global citizens are no strangers to extensive renovations, which makes them appreciate this experience with Simon all the more. He basically took away all the pain in what would otherwise be a very stressful situation,” Gulnar concludes. We love our home – it’s really our kind of perfect.”

In the living area filled with timeless furniture from Baker, Promemoria and Hamilton, Simon sourced the perfect pieces of artwork by Yao Jui-Chung to flank a custom built drinks cabinet he designed.
