American Style at Heart...

Its been a few weeks since I visited Camden Town House in Kebon Jeruk Jakarta, but the thought of Meilinda Sutanto design for Arbor & Troy interior division (she's the creative director for Arbor & Troy furniture) still invoke my excitement every time I looked through the photos in my camera. The last time I had this similar exciting feeling was when I visited the Pottery Barn showroom in State. For a beautiful experience that only comes every once in a while, I'm always packed with excitement to share. Allow me to take you this fabolus small space inspiration..

Served as the Foyer Room, I didn't think this particular area would stand out, but not for this small cute foyer, half of the decoration that this room might have heard my "mmhhmm.." 

As I open the door and entering a home with soft colors, I feel relief and exhale. I love the way Meilinda put the soft green, white and brown colors all together. I'm glad I was the first one to acknowledge this project. According to the interior designer, Meilinda, who try to create such elongate room, most people would be suprise by the size of this house.

Meilinda surely knows how to give a surprise. It is the only one big area among the foyer room, up to mezzanie room, there was a slightly comfort open space (living room, dining and kitchen area) in soft green pallete and two giant mirror frame that brings a kick of chic-hotness, and it did just that at the right amount with the right size on the room.

In stair area, again, soft green wall served warm with the thin black lining and brown classic curtain, with cute bird painting that's flawless for good balance of the wall. What more to ask?

This was another surprise among the open space living area and the cute foyer. Here's where I see the playful side of Meilinda and her attempt to give her dose of modernism feminin in the main bed room. Its not your usual American Style bed room when the feel of too much wood-luxury, as you can see the white credenza and white chairs together with simple cute head bed in creme, came from a glimpse of not-too-heavy American Style look.

The only part of me that still curious is to see full design the kids room area. Design and created in a simple American Style design, but actually Meilinda said her kids room concept should be more various with lots of accessories, but then again budget wise from the developer stoped her to do that. But she very smart by using wall accent as the texture for the room. I think bold lining for the wall and the imaginary head bed for me is almost a must-have to do in every small bedroom area. 

Grand opening. Grand closing. That's all it takes for Meilinda Sutanto design for Arbor & Troy. She did just that with this perfect comfort style elegance for small space design. Light elegance of sweet American Style interior and soft color pallete was a pleasing way of beautiful visual. Another "hmmmmm.." to end up my interior review.

Having traveled 9 years in interior media industry, I see Arbor & Troy specialty of American Style design and particularly in furniture design is something recommendable and I'd definitely come back to.
