Description:
When interior designers Ivy and Cynthia Almario were approached by Cathay Land to conceptualize and implement the interiors of the Mediterranean-inspired Alicante Villa model unit, they immediately visualized how the unit would look like.
"We worked and lived in California for 13-15 years before we settled back here in the Philippines, so the Spanish architecture and interiors of the houses we've visited there served as our inspiration," Cynthia narrated.
Since the Alicante unit comes with a high ceiling, the double volume space allowed the sisters to design a unique trompl'oeil beneath the stairs. The trompl'oeil, a neat row of flowering plants below the stairs and beside the spacious living area, permits a very lighthearted atmosphere within the house.
"We want people to realize they can do this with their unit," added Cynthia.
Guests who view the unit also experience that "wow" and "aahhh" effect when they gaze at the high mural and admire all the action going on at kidney-shaped sofa from the second floor's indoor balcony. The mural highlights the height of the available space, high quality silk fabric and balloon drapes accent the floor-to-ceiling windows, and champagne gold colors give the living room a cohesive look. "We wanted the eyes of visitors to go around, not stuck in just one area," according to Cynthia.
