Flaunt your personality with a stylish flair by creating a bespoke interior scheme. For a homeowner seeking a bachelorette pad that embodied a sense of feminine romance, Design Intervention’s Nikki Hunt created a stunning hotel-inspired abode with lavish details.

A stylish vanity area can be found in the stylish walk-in wardrobe; featuring mirrored details and gleaming gold accents, the space exudes a sense of Hollywood-style glamour. The back of the chair in the dressing room takes its visual cues from a vintage corset dress, adding a tactile touch to the space.

Another stylish nook can be found in the master bedroom. Although it lacks a wall-hung mirror, a small tabletop mirror could still fit onto this smaller nook for easy touch-ups of your makeup. It's set against a backdrop featuring a wallpaper with plum blossom motifs. Brought to life in shades of blush and cream, the delicate floral mural is a nod to the homeowner’s Chinese heritage and adds a touch of Eastern influence to the room.

Incorporating warm tones and natural textures to your vanity area can help create a relaxing sanctuary. Taking inspiration from Japanese aesthetics, this vanity nook designed by multidisciplinary practice Millihaus is a visual extension of the zen mood in the master bedroom.

The bespoke dressing table features a tabletop delicately crafted from travertine marble. With the homeowner’s appreciation for quality craftsmanship and intricate details in mind, the designers created a unique layered tabletop that is held up by storage units with curved edges. A large mirror with rounded contours and atmospheric back lighting creates a visual anchor in the space.

Tired of dancing between your bedroom and your closet? Tucking a vanity area within a walk-in wardrobe layout will help smoothen the flow of things when you’re getting ready.

For this luxurious abode at Sentosa Cove, its designers created a modern Italian interior scheme. Led by Jennifer Murray, the current creative director of Evocateurs, the glamorous walk-in wardrobe was converted from one of the home’s six bedrooms and is designed to impress.

Dazzling gold touches and rose-gold trimmings create a dramatic space. The built-in vanity table stretches along the side of the room, boasting a scenic view that the homeowners can admire as they prepare for the day. Velvet panels on the wall and drawers accompany high-end velvet furniture pieces to add to the room’s stylish appeal, while built-in cabinets and drawers offer copious storage space.
