Homeowner Claire Zanoria moved from her family home in Cebu to a high-rise residential building in Makati. In order to make her feel more relaxed and comfortable in her new condo in the city, she hired interior designers Claire Angelica Alarilla, Luzel Andrea Alconera, and Jeditte Margaret Coloma of Aalco Design Group.

According to the interior design team, the look of the unit is influenced by Scandinavian style. Thankfully, the Scandinavian-inspired design has made the 34sqm unit seem larger than it really is! The neutral color palette of white and brown is perfect for a small space. Clean lines and modern pieces are also ideal for any one-bedroom unit.
