Collector’s Residence
The Collector’s Residence by Lim+Lu is a thoughtful dialogue between Chinese heritage and contemporary finesse, where chinoiserie motifs, vintage pieces and personal heirlooms lend each room a distinct sense of history.
About
Layered with cultural references, collected objects and richly considered finishes, The Collector’s Residence by Lim + Lu brings Chinese heritage into a distinctly contemporary setting.
A carefully curated furniture selection introduces mid-century character and enduring craftsmanship throughout the home. In the living area, the New Works’ Covent Sofa and Audo Copenhagen’s Seal Lounge Chair (1956) balance comfort and quiet sophistication beside the Calacatta Viola fireplace, while the walnut &Tradition’s Drawn Chairs (1956) bring timeless presence to the dining area. In the bathroom, GUBI’s FA33 Mirror (1933) offers a refined brass accent, while the Satellite Pendant (1953) casts an atmospheric play of light and shadow in the bedroom.
Across the house, colour and surface tell the story: St. Leo’s Marble Paint in light beige and dark hunter green builds layers of depth and a quiet mineral richness, echoing a dialogue between historic references, expressive finishes, and iconic design pieces.
