Contemporary Luxury
Whisper Luxe is a 3,578 sq ft Semi-D residence in Senibong Cove, Johor, designed by DAA Design Associates Sdn Bhd. The project explores a contemporary interpretation of luxury through natural light, warm timber, natural stone, glass and layered lighting.
Developed around the concept of Nature Infused Luxe, the residence was designed as a calm urban retreat where architecture, interior details and the surrounding landscape work together. A key design intervention was the transformation of the existing staircase area, creating a larger glazed opening that brings more natural light into the home and strengthens the connection between the interior and its surroundings.
Living With Natural Light
The living area is positioned around the home’s large glazed opening, allowing natural light and the surrounding greenery to become part of the interior experience. Warm timber, stone surfaces and soft neutral upholstery create a refined but comfortable atmosphere.
Dark timber, glass, stone and integrated lighting are combined to create a refined display and entertaining zone. The controlled material palette adds depth without overwhelming the clean architectural lines of the interior.
Reimagining the Staircase
One of the defining design interventions was the transformation of the existing staircase area. The original staircase and wall configuration were redesigned to create a larger glazed opening, allowing more natural light into the interior while improving the visual connection between the living spaces and the surrounding landscape.
The staircase was then integrated with a custom display system, turning circulation into an architectural feature within the home.
A Softer Expression of Luxury
The master bedroom introduces softer textures and warmer tones while maintaining the material language established throughout the home. A custom upholstered feature wall and integrated linear lighting create a layered backdrop, while the large glazed opening maintains a visual connection with the surrounding greenery.
Natural stone, timber and dark-framed glass continue the home’s contemporary material palette into the bathroom, creating a clean and understated private retreat.
Nature Infused Luxe
A contemporary residence shaped by natural light, tactile materials and understated luxury.
Whisper Luxe demonstrates DAA Design’s approach to residential interior design through the integration of spatial planning, architectural interventions, custom elements, material selection and lighting.
