The inspiration: Yasmine’s upbringing in Australia, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait. And the supplies used, in keeping with the studio? “Paint, 2Pac, and an entire lot of affection.”
Be a part of us for a tour of the cool and unconventional house.

Above: The total flat is just 55 sq. meters—about 592 sq. ft. The studio employed a number of tips to make it really feel spacious and extra environment friendly, together with white flooring and ceilings, built-ins in each room (each cabinets and seating), and a palette of “olive inexperienced, turmeric, and peach” that “hyperlink the areas” but set aside the kitchen and dwelling areas.
The one trace that the flat is by the seashore, in keeping with the studio, is the surfboard by the entrance door.
Above: Yasmine at residence. “Ratifying Newton’s regulation of opposites attracting,” in keeping with the studio, “excessive chroma finishes mingle with uncooked intuition and dollops of heat spice tones.” Likewise, classic rugs combine with geometric flooring. (Look carefully: It’s not tile however painstakingly painted authentic boards performed by Inventive End in Sydney.)
Above: The place is about up for achievement with shelf storage throughout. Right here, a customized wooden unit hangs above the customized eating/dwelling banquette.
Above: The kitchen leans into the olive inexperienced and peach palette: The joinery was customized by YSG; the bottom cupboards are painted in Deep Reed by Dulux. The counters and backsplash are Calacatta marble. Above: The higher a part of the kitchen is tone on tone on tone; it’s painted in Camel Disguise by Dulux.
Above: Yasmine and co. sourced an array of classic textiles from Chee Quickly & Fitzgerald, however the curtains are, surprisingly, not retro: They’re tablecloths from Zara Dwelling, retrofitted into window remedies. Droopy tulips—in a wall vase by Felicity Ng—add to the wonky enchantment.
