The 21st Century Baroque Works
Interior Design: Nic & Wes, Photographs: Nicole Kow
Step back into the 17th century and be intrigued by the bold curves of the baroque design. 4 centuries have passed; nevertheless the baroque style is still as flamboyant as ever. The first step you take into this brightly lit house, you will notice a richness of carvings on the wooden furniture and an impressive collection of baroque artworks, interspersed with clean modern lines and fixtures.

Living Room
The edges of the upholstered chairs are painted gold. Adhering to the classical theme, a crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling. The painting of a traditional phantom mask, as well as a black and white foliate patterned curtain further accentuates the indulgent feel.
Master Bedroom
A dramatic bedroom! A stone pedestal is attached to the wall on both sides of the monochrome bed. Adding on to the 17th century European charm, a decorative painting and clock are placed on adjacent walls.
Shoe Rack
Heels, boots, pumps, flip-flops - you name it! The designer created this spacious rack out of the lady owner’s love of footwear.
Wardrobe
A handsomely carved baroque dressing table and a mirror embellished with trimmings.
Washroom
The washroom is interestingly unique with a spiral design covering the wall. Baroque ornaments are used as containers for bathing agents.
