The son of a carpenter and the owner of a furniture store bring plenty of skills to the table when it comes to tackling a home renovation. In fact, Jasmine and Weikang decided to self-design their resale flat, engaging the husband’s father as a builder to execute their dream home. Being a stay-at-home mum as well as an experienced curator for chairs n decor, Jasmine was equipped to supervise the process from start to finish.
“As our family grew in size, we needed a bigger space and somewhere nearer to my husband’s workplace,” Jasmine shares. “We chose this unit because of the square-ish layout and the amount of natural light.” As the flat was 25 years old and outdated in its design and functionality, it was in need of a major overhaul.
