The archways that come to define Residence One, one of ten residences as part of Orchard Piper’s 35 Huntingtower Road, seep into all aspects of the design; in the depth and subtle bends of the interior and in the connection with the manicured garden. Taking architectural cues from Italian loggias, Residence One is characterised by ‘curvatures’ that bring a sense of fluidity, just as the textural and subdued material palette inside and out summon a sense of ease, letting the indoors and outdoors speak as one.

Residence One features a three-metre honed Cote D’Azur marble kitchen island bench.Above the marble island, the Lee Broom Orion Globe light is a key focal point in the open-plan kitchen, with the Jens Low stool by Antonio Citterio for B&B Italia tucked under the sculpted island. Having collaborated with Orchard Piper four times before, Jolson Architecture and Interiors approached their fifth project together with a shared vision to ‘nurture and encourage a life well-lived’. They conceptualised ten residences customised to each detail but sharing in a classic selection of materials, forms and fixtures. 

Residence One, located on the ground floor, is undeniably at the centre of the curve appeal. Residence One’s sculptural rendered archways with bronze steel windows and doors summate the styles that the building straddles – soft, traditional and contemporary. Framing the residence, the archways lay the foundation to the architectural and interior details that come to characterise the project, while activating the outdoor area. 

The dining space features the Seattle chairs and Home Hotel table, both by Jean-Marie Massaud for Poliform.All of the openings are softened by translucent oatmeal-coloured sheer curtains. The living space features leather Caratos Armchairs by Antonio Citterio for Maxalto, Soori round coffee table by Soo Chan in antique bronze and the Charles Sofa by Antonio Citterio for B&B Italia, on the Poliform Soft Rug.The Poliform Quid storage system is mounted on the wall, composed of black elm with metallic otto and fume glass.
