That foundational approach inspired a series of thoughtful design interventions. The once-closed galley kitchen was opened up to the main living area, giving way to a sculptural island and an expanded entertaining zone - a true example of spatial reinvention and material-driven storytelling. A rare, plum-toned natural quartzite slab, sourced early in the process, became the defining element of the design, setting the tone for the home’s bold palette and grounding the open-concept space with natural depth.

Recognizing the condo’s limited cabinetry options, Studio P cleverly rerouted storage, leaving the kitchen cabinetry intentionally minimal. A hallway pantry now carries the functional load, allowing the kitchen to take on the role of a sculptural centerpiece. The richly veined quartzite, with its deep plum hues, anchors the design and becomes the home’s focal point, establishing a warm, saturated color palette of terracotta, mint, and ink.

A floating custom banquette along the U-shaped window wall offers comfortable seating for up to eight, without encroaching on the living space.

In the living room, a custom marble fireplace surround with recessed terracotta shelving forms an architectural moment grounded in subtle contrast. The polished nickel and leather-accented reading light above it offers a rare balance of mood and utility -  a hallmark of Studio P’s work. In the primary suite, a full-wall velvet headboard in deep cerulean brings softness, dimension, and a hint of drama to the sleeping quarters. Throughout, nothing feels ornamental or accidental. The project was guided by a philosophy of intelligent restraint: every gesture has intention, every material has purpose.
