Starting From Scratch

Uncovers the clever features in this minimalist home designed by its owners.
Starting From Scratch

After receiving the keys to their new home, it was two years before the Changs could move in as Jason and Li Lian designed and managed the renovation of their five-room flat themselves. He also studied the basics of interior design — from the recommended height of a countertop to the different types of hinges and lighting — as well as the 3-D modeling software Sketchup from scratch.

“It felt like I’d done a two-year course on interior design, and our home was my final-year project!” says Jason.

They went through various changes, and took their time to source the materials they liked and contractors they trusted. Carpentry experts from Cheong Cheng Renovation & Carpentry Work, for instance, were instrumental in achieving the desired sleek, minimalist look.
