Stunning Modern Home in Singapore with a Spiral Staircase that Wows!

There are a few homes that feel modern and cozy and do so without really sweeping you off our feet with sheer grandeur. Then there are homes where you instantly see an iconic feature that defines it and ends up becoming the showstopper. The Greja House designed by Park + Associates in Singapore falls into the latter category with an interior that is built around a stunning central spiral staircase. The gorgeous spiral staircase in wood is the feature that dwarfs all else and the open plan living area round it and the water feature next to it seem to play second fiddle.

Spacious and luxurious contemporary home in Singapore

Yet, the house is much more than just the captivating staircase as the central idea behind the design here was to shape a setting that brings the entire family together. The open living area with kitchen, social zones and dining space accomplish this elegantly even as traditional indoor-outdoor boundaries are cleverly blurred. There is a healthy dosage of green both inside and outside the house and it is this greenery that turns the sophisticated home into a relaxing hub where the residents can easily rest and rejuvenate.

This matrix of borderless spaces is a white translucent box. Functionally, it acts as a screen that brings filtered daylight into the house while maintaining a degree of privacy. Architecturally, it creates a permeable skin that not only dissolves the boundary between inside and outside but also defines the visual character of the house.

  • W72nd Penthouse

    Located in the historic Oliver Cromwell Building, The W72nd penthouse inhabits the top three floors of the historic building in the Upper West Side of Manhattan. With commanding views of Central Park, it’s an awe-inspiring refuge from the frenetic pace of NYC. The clients, a financier and a tech entrepreneur, one from Pakistan and the other a Detroit native, longed for a cozy retreat to counterbalance their busy lifestyle. The fusion of two cultural backgrounds are apparent in the mixtures of textiles and material selections throughout the home. With two growing daughters and a steady stream of houseguests, the project aimed to accommodate their family as well as act as a secluded shelter away from city life. The space is first met with a glimpse of a stunning oak herringbone floors and steel circular staircase that connects all three floors and serves as the central backbone of the space. Facing the staircase is the main floor living and dining area perfectly framed as the home’s first introduction to the space. The area showcases an eclectic art collection and a library for the voracious literary appetite of the homeowners along with objects of curiosity from the client’s travels. Instantly eye-catching is the dining area which features a stunning dining table and leather chairs and flanked by a banquette covered with a custom Suki Cheema textile. Adjacent is a small media room punctuated by a bright red Ligne Roset couch. The tiered floor plates provided a challenge for maximizing space as each level gets increasingly smaller as you go up. The design team began to think like a shipwright to design unexpected built-ins that evoke the feeling of being in a sailboat in the sky. On the second floor, up the oak and steel staircase, is small office, a bedroom with two beds in a unique head-to-toe configuration surrounded by figured maple built-in storage looking to the prominent views of the penthouse’s towering over Manhattan. Also, on the second floor is a bathroom, a small kitchenette, and a gracious balcony that continues to overlook to the busy cityscape below. The open spaces of the circular stairwell continue up to the third-floor feature integrated fire shutters that slide down to create privacy for the whole second floor. Continuing up the stairs is a generous master bedroom and master bath. The master bathroom is class wall to wall in hand- made colored Moroccan tile juxtaposed with modern fixtures and fittings.
