AVIDA ALABANG PROJECT: A Modern Eclectic Two-Bedroom Condo Unit

This 57.12 sqm two-bedroom condo unit located at Avida Alabang Towers is designed in a modern eclectic style while still making the unit appear much bigger.

Designing this unit was very challenging because the goal was to make it look high-end at a lower cost. Generally, the key to make this possible is through balance. Everything should be balanced (the expensive pieces and the low-budget pieces) to unify and achieve the look.

The whole interior design project was under a very, very, very tight budget so we had to maximize and make use of what was already existing in the unit especially because the client wants to push through with my proposed design under his budget. I explained thoroughly though that the design would not be executed exactly the same since we had to make a lot of adjustments. Since my client is just renting out the space and he's not the unit owner, there were already existing curtains, shower curtains, and a few kitchen cabinets in the unit and we did not replace those with new ones.

Overall, this design project pushed me to my limits and I'm glad this turned out okay.
