The living and dining zone is the heart of the home — a grand open-plan space anchored by a striking checkerboard marble floor in high-contrast black and white. This graphic base sets up every element above it: a large-format sculptural elephant wall relief that dominates the living room back wall, curved cream sectional sofas arranged around an organic wooden coffee table, and a wavy ribbon pendant light that arcs across the ceiling overhead.
The dining area sits in dialogue with the living room — framed by an arched opening and a dramatic floral-patterned wallpaper backdrop. A cluster of globe pendants descends over the dining table, and the checkerboard floor continues seamlessly through, tying the two zones together. The living room's second angle reveals a helical staircase rising behind the TV unit — itself framed in warm stone with a recessed display niche — while abstract sculptural floor pieces punctuate the transitions.
