In his 68-square-meter apartment in Singapore, Adriano Tawin - co-founder of a real estate editorial and a home décor shop - has created a space that feels calm, personal, and intentional. Warm mid-century tones, tactile materials, and shifting natural light define his interior style, reflecting his deep focus on how a home should feel, not just look.

Lighting plays a subtle but crucial role in that feeling. Adriano values warmth, dimmability, and the way light interacts with its surroundings.
“Good lighting should feel invisible - yet essential.”

Among his most-loved pieces is the VL45 Portable, a Louis Poulsen lamp that blends sculptural presence with a soft, ambient glow.
“It feels like a modern interpretation of a lantern. It’s beautifully functional - delicate yet impactful.”
For Adriano, Louis Poulsen represents more than design—it symbolizes timelessness.
“These are pieces that stay with you. Quietly, effortlessly. For years.”
