The Residence H –

Built on a 560m² land with 872m² of living space, The Residence H in North Jakarta’s Kelapa Gading area was envisioned as a warm retreat for retirement: A home where children and grandchildren feel welcome to visit and gather. Every aspect of the layout is designed to strike a balance between comfort and safety, with thoughtful details such as railings and staircases that accommodate both young and elderly family members.

Carrying a warm, modern concept, the interiors blend a simple, up-to-date style with inviting tones to create a homely atmosphere. Natural textures dominate, from the porous beauty of travertine romano to the richness of medium-dark open-pore oakwood, most strikingly showcased in the soaring living room void. This feature is the heart of the home, filling every floor with natural light while opening up spacious horizontal and vertical interactions.

The architecture and interior design consultant for this project is Trivium Design Group, whose approach extends to personalised furniture selections, including display shelves in the family room, pantry, and bedrooms, allowing the homeowners to showcase personal collections and make the space truly their own.

Minimised openings on the north and west parts of the house ensure the most comfortable ventilation flow, while large openings on the southeast part together with the soaring void bring abundant natural light. The southeast opening also leaves a space between this house and its next-door neighbour, ensuring comfortable living in a residential area.

80 Years of Diversity –

To mark 80 years of Indonesia’s independence, Komunitas Negeri Elok presents the photography exhibition “80 Tahun Keberagaman” at the National Museum of Indonesia.

Curated by Andra Matin and Davy Linggar, and initiated by the Didit Hediprasetyo Foundation, the exhibition features works by acclaimed photographers including Arseto Adiputra, Beawiharta, Davy Linggar, Donny Fernando, Indra Leonardi, and Martin Westlake.

Showcased within an installation designed by Andra Matin, the photographs unfold across eight themes—The Past, The Face, Landscape, Culinary, Fauna, Architecture, and Film—each celebrating Indonesia’s cultural and natural diversity. The Film theme extends into short movies by M. Syauqi Subhan Tuasikal, Jay Subyakto, and others, presented in a dedicated screening space.

The installation leads visitors on a serene journey framed by 1,945 bamboo sticks, symbolizing the year of Indonesia’s independence, the resilience of its heroes, and a protective embrace for the stories immortalized in each image.

The Harmonist of Maison –

A contemporary classic concept ties together the interior design and decoration of this 380 sqm 3-bedroom apartment at the St. Regis Residence. Its dominant grey tone enabled the apartment to become a flattering canvas for the enchanting life of the owners. The masculine character of the man of the house, as well as the classic, understated luxury charm of the lady of the house, are also well-represented by the nuanced shades of grey tone of the house.

Severiano of Domus Living Studio is the principal designer who spearheaded this apartment’s makeover project. He brought the homeowners’ desired design concept to life in just over two months. The classic contemporary concept was executed with an enlightened approach to luxury, evident through the choice of furniture items with clean, simple lines adorned with bold accessories and details.

This apartment unit, dubbed “The Harmonist of Maison”, is accessible through a private elevator, which opens into an elegant foyer featuring a monochromatic ensemble of furniture, lamp, and decorative items set against rich textures combined artistically. This first look provides a clear description of what to expect behind the door: A living area featuring a sectional sofa and armchairs, an elegant dining area adorned with a showstopping tiered chandelier, and a working area with ample natural light during the day.

The main colour theme of grey is also applied in the bedrooms, but extra warmth is injected through the use of natural wood panels and floors. The master bedroom, which enjoys the best city view during the golden hours, is a fine example of how warm natural tones of wood contrast well with the cool charm of grey.
