With an impressive 98 per cent of its interior remodelled, this home strikes a balance that's both visually stunning and inviting. To uncover the secrets behind this transformation, we chatted with the creative minds at Rubiks Studio, who led this ambitious project.Before embarking on this project, the homeowner shared with the designer a photo of a ballroom, as she was captivated by its bold black and white tiled floor.

A personal favourite of the designer, the powder room is adorned with gold accents against emerald green tiles, to add a sense of sophistication to the space.
