Project Showcase

What type of home is this? (4-room HDB/3-room condo/terrace house etc)
• Condominium

How many rooms?
• 3 Bedrooms

What’s the floor size?
• 1141 sqft.

How many people live here? (Family with three kids / young couple / three generations under one roof etc)
• 3 person. Mom & 2 Daughters

Describe the homeowners.
• TMiddle age home maker mom & 2 working daughters. They were previously staying in a shophouse. Move to a condominium unit for easier maintenance and it’s like a retire home for mom.

What was the design brief? What kind of look did the homeowners request?
• Homeowner wanted ample hidden storage spaces to have a clutter free home & a modern contemporary interior that is timeless with a touch of luxury.

What’s the most interesting design feature in this home?
• The most interesting design feature will be the customised sliding gate. The homeowner prefers to keep the main door open to enjoy the natural air flow but yet retain privacy. Therefore, instead of having a conventional gate which is unappealing, I have designed a sliding gate to be installed at the foyer without compromising existing space and practicality of use.

• The gate is designed in a way that when it opens up, it also serves as a sleek wall feature. Frosted glass panels were added at strategic heights at eye levels to obtain privacy from the corridor outside when neighbours walk past.

What were some of the challenges when designing this house?
• Main challenge was to come up with areas to conceal and maximise storage but not compromising on the spacious look and feel of the apartment.

Living room:

• TV feature wall is in a white marble looking laminate with clean lines to conceal the cabinet doors which are shallow storage for daily miscellaneous items (tissue boxes, battery, vase, books), and to house the cables for TV & electronics appliances.

• Suspended cabinet & a low ledge brought practicality to the wall along the dining walkway. The chamfered side gave the cabinet a wider look without looking like a box or exposing its cabinet depth (the slant at the side make the cabinet looks sleeker and has a nicer flow and transition). The suspended ledge acts as a side table beside sofa and allows homeowner to have the flexibility to change the vase and display items according to “season” (Christmas, lunar new year, change the flowers). Also, this is the view of what they will see when the walk out of bedrooms to living area.

• Timbre beam across the sofa wall serves as a continuity from the suspended cabinet & to function as a light box for art pieces as well as adding more depth to the flat wall which is covered in wallpaper.
