HDB Flat
5-rooms
1236 sqft
2 people, a dog, and a chinchilla.
- The couple share the HDB flat with their pets, a dog and a chinchilla. They also enjoy hosting family and friends in large groups of ten to 20 guests. So, the five-room flat must feel as spacious as possible.
- To make the space ideal for hosting, the designer created several areas where guests could gather.
- The open-concept kitchen flows out to a breakfast area with an island counter perfect for baking.
- Behind the kitchen island is the storeroom, neatly hidden with a concealed door.
- The customised storage wall doubles as a feature that extends towards the bedrooms. There’s even a dining set placed close by to the kitchen island.
- “Due to the layout, the living-and-dining space is in an odd trapezium plane. Thus, proper space planning is important to fully utilise the angled space,” Megan adds.
- The bedrooms are hidden behind concealed doors that have been built flush with the woodgrain-patterned wall.
- A portion of the wall was removed to accommodate a large wardrobe in the master bedroom.
- This move allowed the wardrobe to be built flush against the wall. Megan explains, “The back of the wardrobe becomes the television feature wall in the entertainment room.”
- Aside from the living area, guests can also relax in the London ‘shop’, which functions as an entertainment room.
- The black facade of this space, as well as the sign, gives it an elegant, upscale feel. Inside, a marble-patterned feature wall and a daybed dress up the space.
- Lastly, the bathrooms feature monochromatic patterned tiles.
- One bathroom sports stone patterns on the walls.
- The vanity cabinets inject a pop of colour to each and create a focal point. The clever use of colours, patterns and textures throughout this storefront inspired flat culminates in a sophisticated yet whimsical aesthetic for a fun-loving couple.
