Artful Living

Marching to its own design beat is this characterful HDB flat unit which embodies the homeowner’s favourite styles from across the globe

Much like a style chameleon, it’s hard to pinpoint an exact style that truly defines this flat unit located at the fringe of central Singapore. It is home to a jet-setting bachelor and through his diverse travels; he wanted to inject a melting pot of styles into his humble HDB flat unit. “Just to name a few, there are hints of Orientalism, farmhouse and European style influences in this home,” says the design team from Three-D Conceptwerke whom took charge of the overhaul.

“When it comes to decorating and furnishing, we encouraged our client to go with anything that speaks to him,” says the team. As the homeowner blended colours, time periods and styles with an organic approach, the designers looked into creating a fairly neutral setting to accommodate his decorating whims. Whitewashed walls and ceilings with moulding accents then come into play to create a neutral yet French-inspired ground to house a truly eclectic mix of art and furnishings.
