This Trump Tower Penthouse, aptly names as ‘Casa in Sky’ is one of the highest liveable places in the city, making it a unique property with a prestigious reputation. Therefore, the concept of the project was to highlight the distinctiveness of each space in the Penthouse, reflecting the individual personality of each inhabitant given the varying age group of the family. The project included five rooms, each with its unique concept and colour theme. Additionally, the living room is a double-height area, which provides an expansive sense of space.
The double height living room is a vast space that radiates opulence and grandeur. The focal point of this space is the elaborate chandelier that cascades down to the central seating area. The room’s design is a combination of elegance and comfort, with an emphasis on exquisite detailing. The seating area is arranged invitingly, with plush sofas providing the perfect space for relaxation and entertainment. A sense of calm and tranquillity is created with the added bonus of natural light streaming through the large windows.

The bed is the focal point in the room, with a design that exudes grandeur and sophistication. The walls are adorned with marble and veneer panelling that blends well with the design of the room. A sense of tranquillity is created by the soft light emanating from the wall mounted lights. The room’s layout creates a seamless flow, with the bed placed in the centre, the sitting area arranged neatly close to the window to enjoy the breath-taking view.
