House Calls

Neo-Baroque 

Name: Tumangan Residence

Location: Manila Philippines

Architecture & Design: Santos and Partners Inc.

Taking cues from the owner's wardrobe and tastes, the black and white interiors of this Manila home fulfills the homeowner's flair for drama and sophistication. An out of the ordinary yet classy demeanor is achieved by the somewhat whimsical juxtaposition of the classical forms of Baroque furniture and a modern all black and white color scheme. Most everything is kept shiny and reflective, from the cool granite floors to the patent leather on the chairs, to keep things from being too heavy and gothic.
