Casa K,

Residential Project

Beirut, Lebanon

he Casa K residential project was implemented with Wael
Farran Studio's passion for design, attention to detail, and its
Tsignature touch of love. Inspired by the movement of the sea,
variations of stylised curvy lines guide you through the apartment’s
personalised spaces in monochromatic tones, building up the warm,
safe, and comfortable feeling of a happy home. Situated along the
“Beiruty” coast, the apartment boasts a private elevator area, an
entrance lobby that leads to an open space saloon with a living area,
a dining space, four bedroom suites, including a master bedroom
with a dressing area, a study and work room, a guest bathroom, two
kitchens, and a help chamber.

While the apartment remained within its original plan, the larger
scope of the work included a major interior design uplift with plaster
and woodwork, almost all custom-made furniture, as well as an
electric update with new lighting and sound systems.

Public Areas
Public Areas are the spaces where visitors are given a glimpse of
intimacy. These are spaces where everybody, whether visiting or
living on-site, should feel at home. For Casa K, it was all about the
soothing feel of a gentle wave that refreshes with a splash.
The magic vibes of the apartment begin to be absorbed as soon as
the elevator doors open and people step into the elevator hallway,
where they are greeted with customised parametric wall paneling
for the whole area, made out of individually cut pieces of plywood
space apart to display an organic sweeping wave, blending seamlessly
with the entrance door that boasts a custom-made Arabic calligraphy
handle. To the left, the wall paneling pops out into an organic bench
for a more inviting mood. Elevator Entrance
