When the artistic flair of Wes Anderson meets the timeless allure of mid-century design, the result is a home that artfully communicates the homeowners' unique personalities.

Space 4-room BTO flat
Location Bidadari
Reno period Nine weeks
Home to A couple
Reno budget $60K
When this couple engaged designer Jun Lee from Authors Interior & Styling to overhaul their BTO flat, they gave him a bit of a puzzle. The goal was to craft a home that’s flexible enough to accommodate gatherings with friends and family yet still feels intimate and cosy for when the couple spends time alone, all the while reflecting the homeowners’ rather unique tastes and personalities.
