The Marilyn Monroe Buildings ...

The call came and we jumped at the chance!  It was a challenge and a thrill for Darren and team to design the staging of a suite at 60 Absolute, in Mississauga.  The buildings, stylishly called The Marilyn Monroe Buildings, are breath-taking from the outside.  We equally wanted to make this unit, breath-taking on the inside!


We feel we accomplished our goal by thinking outside the box; like using only the center piece of a large sectional as the sofa in the living room.  We also used punches of colour and texture to create a luxurious feel but keeping the space open and airy, by using glass and reflective pieces throughout.  A hint of teal on an ottoman, grabs your eye, as you walk into the unit!


Architectural wall pieces add depth and interest to a otherwise dull wall.  


Continuing the same colour throughout the space brings unity and flow.

We loved our time at Absolute.
