Perhaps it was prolonged isolation or the fact that adult children finally left their parents' nest, but after moving into this Sydney penthouse, the couple wanted to catch up and surround themselves with bright colors and unusual objects. Yasmine Saleh Ghoniem from YSG Studio, who drew inspiration from the look of Spanish tapas bars, helped the couple in this.

The living room was decorated with long pile carpets, sofas in purple upholstery resembling a patchwork quilt, and a furry pink armchair. Murano glass floor lamps with white, orange and gold stripes bring colors to the interior. Unlike the living room, the kitchen is made in black, which is combined with the green-blue shade of the island, finished with stone tiles. The handles of the bar, which are located in the dining area, are made of the same material. The wooden table and chairs with burgundy velvet seats were made by YSG Studio and local designer Adam Goodrum. The kitchen wall of the dining room is lined with cream glossy tiles, which, reflecting the sun's rays, fills the entire space with natural light.

A similar combination of materials and colors can be seen in the master bedroom. The bed is complemented by a headboard made of plywood and white marble. Its plum-red hue echoes the berry lamps hanging on both sides of the bed.
In the bathroom, the studio has installed an onyx panel that stretches from the shower to the entrance, where it turns into a ledge with two built-in sinks. The designers used the same technique in the guest bathroom, which is completely lined with indigo tiles.

Around the terrace, the designers added several large potted plants to hide the outdoor area from the neighbors. The space is furnished with blue furniture, which creates a visual connection with the view of the bay, which you can admire sitting in a comfortable chair.
