In this issue

Our latest issue of SquareRooms is a heartfelt tribute to the beauty of handmade creations and the brilliant minds behind them. Dive into the world of artisanal furniture, handcrafted ceramics, and DIY home transformations. Meet inspiring makers, upcyclers, and innovative designers who are redefining home decor. Check out remarkable homes with unique touches, and stories of inclusive design.

First up, we’ve got Deepti, who upcycles old furniture into vibrant statement pieces at Big Blue Trunk, ceramists like Ummu, who decided to forgo minimalist functionality in favour of creative pieces with lots of personality, sisters Jolene
and Jaime who have been renovating their home entirely by themselves, and many more.
Make sure to take a look at the amazing homes in this issue as well, like Kat and Ian’s distinctive HDB flat complete with a unique rattan ceiling, and a lovely, one-of-a-kind home that defies predefined design styles.
We also catch up with a designer who created an accessible, open-plan home for a wheelchair-bound mother, a fantastic project we are so glad to feature.
