studio.talk was tasked to design the facade of the existing two-storey shophouse and the second floor as a floor to showcase to potential clients the best of what Polytech can offer. We envision the second floor setting as a mini apartment split into 3 zones; a dining area, pantry/entertaining corner as well as a bedroom corner, divided by bespoke partitions that separate yet frame each zones from different apertures.

We decided the palette to be more moody, suave and layered – think of open pore dark timber veneers and aged brass against the playful grey veins of Bardiglio marble. This is to also contrast with the bright and crisp interior of the furniture showroom on the first floor, designed by @jwconsultant , which is dominated by a lighter timber palette. Both floors are intentionally designed in almost a day to night transition in order to appeal to the customer’s wide ranged taste as well as to help those who are still unsure decide and physically preview which mood would suit their living preference more.

The flagship store is now open and welcomes everyone – you can visit them at Jln. Benda Raya No 14H, Kemang
