The house, inspired by the owner’s medical background, serves as his personal utopia. It features deep hues with red accents, contrasting the white of a hospital. Dark furnishings and red elements reflect the owner’s character and provide visual relief. The lighting design, with RGB capabilities, allows mood-based color changes, symbolizing the owner’s emotions.

Two contrasting sofas in the living room offer spaces for contemplation and relaxation. The side bedroom, in serene white, promotes calm and rejuvenation. A shelf behind the sofa wall, made of iron boards, ensures durability and aligns with the lighting fixtures for visual organization.

Japanese tiles, chosen for their precision, reflect the family’s background and the doctor’s meticulous nature. Sustainability is prioritized with non-toxic, durable materials, ensuring a healthy environment and reducing maintenance needs. The design balances the owner’s professional and personal life, creating a harmonious living space.
